14 Month Update

Some new tricks as we enter Month 14:

• When you ask "What does the Lion say?" she says "Roar" - But it's silent. It seems that all of her animals are missing their vocal cords
• We hear lots of "bye bye" lately
• You can ask Avery "Where's your belly" and she promptly lifts her shirt
• We are told that she loves to dance at Daycare with her friends
• Avery seems to understand more and more of what we tell her and ask her. She is talking all the time and saying lots of little Avery words and sometimes things that sound like real words.
• She has this cute thing where we have a computer power cord plugged in on our entertainment center to charge our computer. Avery kept trying to grab it and put it in her mouth so we kept telling her "no" and putting it behind the entertainment center and out of her reach. Now if it's ever sitting out she goes and puts it behind the entertainment center for us and if any other cords are sitting out she walks them over and throws them behind the entertainment center. Too funny!
• She loves to empty drawers and bags and purses and give things to you
• Avery likes to pull up your shirt and look at your belly button and give you raspberries. She makes the funniest little sound!
• She's a great eater and likes basically anything we give her. Randomly she has started liking the packets of baby food again - she thinks they are a great treat and it's an easy way to get her extra veggies.
• She still uses her hair to comfort herself and loves her fafa/paci
• Avery has 12 teeth and is down to one nap a day in the early afternoon
• She is a smiley and happy girl - We can't get enough of her giggle!
