Walking and "Talking"

My girl is growing up so fast! This is just more for me so that I can kinda remember when she started standing and "talking." Last week, I believe Wednesday? which was October 13, she stood on her own for the second time and has kept on going!! She stood on her own for the first time a few weeks ago, but it was definitely a fluke, she was reaching for something in my hand. I was turned a different way and didn't even realize it. When I did, I screamed, and she fell over. I think I scared her. But ever since last week, she is standing and starting to bounce when she is standing. She will be walking VERY soon I think! She tries to take steps, but unsuccessful so far...haha.

She has ALSO learned a sign language. BUT, we don't know which one!! We are teaching her eat, more, milk, and all done. And we think she is either doing all done or milk. However, a bunch of us decided it must be milk. It is kinda like she shakes her right fist in the air by her head. But if I take everything away she gets a little upset, and so I give her milk, and she GLADLY takes it.

Her noise of the week is like a shh shh. Super cute!

We had a visit with Nana last week, and let me tell you Sue, if you read this, I definitely appreciate you and love you SO much. Thank you for accepting me into your family!! I was developing a cold, and Nana was right on time to take care of EVERYTHING. It was wonderful. I could rest, and Ellie could get all the love. We went to the zoo, took walks, and it was good.

New baby girl, whom I think we are going to name Gemma Lee, is doing great. Everything went well with the second sonogram, and she looks super cute!! I was comparing her pics with Ellie's at the same time, and they look different! It will be exciting to meet her. I am already getting nervous and thinking about the ultimate goal for some sort of schedule. Ellie is pretty much clockwork. So, we shall see :) I am not going to have expectations. Ellie was kinda early with getting on schedule and sleeping through the night, but it might take a LOT longer with Gemma, so I just have to have some patience and roll with it.

She is moving a lot, and Taylor can feel all the kicks and punches, and we are beginning to see her move as well. Mmm...my girls...love them!
