There's Gotta Be A Better Word For This....

...than "cute."  Because it's beyond cute.  So cute it's almost painful.  Like when GW walks in the door from work, and El holds up a hand to him and shouts, "Eye!" (Hi).  Like when she burps, and if I say, "burp!" she'll laugh (how does she know that's funny?).  Like when she plays peek-a-boo with herself in a mirror.

She now says "Mama, up," when she wants me to pick her up.  She's practicing her walking all the time.  She's recently refined her kissing technique - instead of opening her mouth and diving for your face, she opens and closes her lips against your cheek.  She still likes the game where she tries to bite your nose and you try not to let her and you squeal in a really high voice.  She's a ham, like her sister.  She calls Av "Ah-ee."  Neat.

Let's see...finished unloading the shoe bench, what's next?

Grinning at Dad

Big Sis helps her walk

Hiey!

She clawed her way into the fridge and helped herself to a bloody corpse...I mean plum.

Her favorite ride.
