Im so in love with her and her hilarious personality! These pictures are just a glimpse of our pretty little lady (almost Toddler!) Yikes! Birthday Celebrations are just around the corner!

Busy Busy

We have a very busy baby girl! I mean seriously this girl can move and she goes all day long. Were lucky if she gets in a total of an hour and a half nap all day long. She is very concerned she might miss out on the action. She plays pretty much all day and now that she can walk she is all over the house and I mean ALL over. She loves going up the stairs and so far we only have gates going down stairs not up, so she frequently makes the trip all the way up the stairs and when you tell her no or be careful she thinks it is absolutely hilarious and laughs her way all the way up the stairs. We definitely know why she is a tiny little girl. No matter how much she eats, her energy levels keep all those calories burning. She definitely eats better now that she is so busy. I guess she is a little like her momma. I like being busy, I thrive on being busy. And lucky for us she has joined right in with our busy summer schedule. Ty and I have been going going going all summer long so far, its been beautiful out and we are just trying to get in as much summer sun as we can. We have been swimming every weekend, taking lots of longs walks and enjoying BBQ's with family and friends. Its been good but busy. Franki is loving all the attention and most of all she loves her weekend swimming. She is a little fish for sure and this weekend we even got Hulk in on the swimming action. Franki and Hulk enjoyed a nice float on their rafts (pretty good life for them! 90 degree weather and a raft in the swimming pool!) Doesnt get much better than this. I love summer because of the people it brigns together, the happy feeling you get when you are out in the sun and just loving my first summer with my sweet BUSY girl! Enjoy some pictures of Franki's sweet baby kisses!

11 months!

Franki turned 11 month's during our wonderful family vacation in Breckenridge, Colorado! She amazed us with her skills while on vacation! Just one week before she turned 11 months, she was taking 3-4 steps at a tme and falling and within one week this girl wasnt crawling anymore and just walking! She now takes up to 12 steps at a time, can pivot and turn around, as soon as she falls she gets right back up and takes 12 more steps. She doesnt really crawl at all anymore unless she is really tired. So it is official we have a walking maching, now onto running. She got an awesome new pair of Keen shoes from her Moma while on vacation. They are sooo cute and really help her with her balance and coordination. Her personality is so full of just about everything. She is funny, dramatic, lovey, animated and a whole other bunch of adjectives! She makes lots of funny faces a.k.a attempts to imitate faces that we make to her. She gives kisses sometimes just for no reason at all and anytime you ask her she leans her sweet face forward and kisses you gently on the lips, cheeks or forehead. If you ask her to give hulk or her dolly kisses she also follows suit. She is following all different commands and also understands quite a few things. If you ask her id she wants to eat, she gets very excited and mad if you dont take her to her highchair immediately. She is a very picky little eater. Her staples include, mac and cheese, chicken nuggets, apples, watermelon, cereal, yogurt and that is about it! Here and there we can find fruit and veggies that she will eat, but she mostly enjoys to suck the juice out of food and spit it back out. She is a women who knows what she wants when she wants it! She sometimes (especially when she is tired) acts like a dog. She huffs  and sticks out her tounge like a dog. She also continues to growl and immitate hulk. Im not sure how this is possible but I love this girl more and more everyday. Her personality continues to fill our life with laughs and so much joy. My life is so much better because of her. Tyer and I just love everything about her and we cant wait to see what the next big month before the BIG 1 comes!!
