and the list goes one....
Her motor skills are incredible. She is always trying to take things apart and put them back together again. She has figured out how to get on the furniture now so I'm not sure how we will deal with that situation...she's trying to crawl from the couch across the end table to daddy's chair!! Lydia has a flair for the dramatics and is quick to throw herself on the floor with a fake cry, it's actually quite hilarious! She's doing somersaults(sp?!)now too and loves doing what looks like the "downward dog" yoga position and putting her arms out to the sides and saying "TA-DA"...as if to say look mom no hands!! She has a contagious laugh and a twinkle in her eye. If you tell her to do the "monkey dance" she does this dance where she bounces up and down and giggles then she spins around and falls on the floor! We've also been working on sounds with her...she says a cow says "moo", a dog says "woof", a cat says "meow", a duck says "quack quack" a horse says "neigh" and a bear says "rawr". Whenever she sees a baby in a book she says baby and then she says "awe" and kisses it, it's so sweet.

In short, Lydia is the biggest blessing to Matt and I. We cherish ever second with her. We never knew a love like this existed until we had her. Thank you all for taking the time to read out blog and keep up on our little families happenings!
