Well, we got moved in and are getting down to the last of the boxes and are really excited to be in the new house! Piper did great with the transition although all the work has temporarily limited our photo opportunities. I am also sidelined because my camera died and is currently at Fuji for repair (thank God for manufacturers' warranty). I did manage to take a few photos in the interim and here they are.
A lot of exciting things are happening with Piper these days. She is getting very good at drinking from a cup and especially likes it when we put ice in there. She also said her first word..."ball." She can even go get the ball when you tell her to. She has also started to wave AND say "bye bye" at the same time. The other day she even did it at the right time...when we were actually leaving somewhere!She can say "dog" as well and says it every time she sees one...which is pretty often at our house! She has also started dancing. It's really more of a sway with arms out by her side but she loves doing it.
We went to a fall festival last weekend and there was a petting zoo. Piper loves animals and was all over the place touching the goats, horses, bunny and chickens. She had a great time...



Finally, now that the weather is starting to cool - out of the 90's for the most part - we have started spending more time outside. Piper loves being outside. We can't decide if it's because she truly enjoys the outdoors or if it's because it's the only place we let her play with open water bottles and cups...

Have a great day!
