Whoa...We're Still Here

Yikes, it's been a long while since we've posted anything. Thank you to our loyal visitors who keep reminding us of that fact! :) Just kidding.

One of the big highlighst of the past few months has been Felicity's 1st birthday. She turned 1 on September 17 and already thinks of herself as a very advanced toddler...including some of the "terrible twos" tantrums.

Of course every day has some new milestone or development for Felicity. So by my estimation, we're only about 60 milestones behind on this blog! I'll try to hit a few of the cutest and perhaps biggest developments of the last couple months.

I think Becky has written about teaching Felicity a little sign language. She is getting good at "more", "please", "doggie", "milk", "nap", "eat", "drink" and that's about all I can think of right now. She's also mastered saying (not signing) Daddy, Mama, Hi and she's working on matching our inflection for about a dozen other words/phrases that we say even if she hasn't mastered the words yet.

She is of course practically running around the house now, she loves her books and frequently dissappears into her room for long periods at a time reading by herself! And Kona has become one of her best friends, she loves hugging her and chasing her to grab her little stump of a tail. Both Kona and Hoover are doing very well putting up with Felicity's tail grabbing, pinching and sitting on their paws/head/etc.

I think that at least gets you somewhat caught up on Felicity. As always, we'll try to make more regular posts to keep everyone up to date.
