14 Months

Wow, all I can say is that I can't believe I have a 14 month old (well in 3 days)! Gabriela is of course the best baby in the entire world. We are going to go on our first airplane ride on June 3rd to Arkansas. This should be interesting. I am a bit nervous, since it is just me and G, but I am sure we will do fine. I will give an update on that experience. Wish Bob was going, but circumstances don't allow it this time. Well, let's see.....G is talking a bit whenever she see's a baby she says ba-ba. She says Coco, and knows the dogging goes woof and the duck goes quack. She also knows how to say the German children's word for dog which is wow wow (sp?). She also knows mu-ah for kiss and blows a kiss by putting one finger to her mouth and then it winds up in her nose, but she's consistent! She knows her eyes, ears, nose, feet, hands & mouth in both English and German. It's amazing that she is understanding both languages fluently, I know I shouldn't be surprised because they say that the children absorb multiple languages at this age, but when it's your own child it's amazing. She also gives you things when you ask for them and this week her newest thing is that everything from cell phones to keys go up to her ears and she pretends she's talking on the phone. She loves to dance and when you ask her to dance she moves one of her shoulders up and down. She is extremely active and is walking, oh wait I mean RUNNING everywhere. She just doesn't keep still. She is very happy as usual and brings everyone who comes around her such joy. Bob is so proud of her (and I am too)!
