She signs the same thing for bird & duck, but mommy knows what you mean baby girl!

Happy Halloween!!

I carved this a week ago, now its covered in snow!

Just a quick update- Music class is so much fun! Lily is starting to participate in class (some kids wont interact or sing until months into the class). She likes some songs more than others, but she loves music in general- anything with a good steady beat! Next month we start 'Mommy & me yoga' then in January a new ASL class starts up! So much to look forward to! Starting to plan her second birthday party, can't even fathom the passing time! Speaking of parties, we had TWO this past weekend. Lily went & stayed with grandma for TWO nights! I'm so lost without her.
Well we picked her up around six tonight, & she passed out minutes from home (& a french fry in each hand) - she was just too busy with grandma for a nap! After we got home I tried to wake her up on several occasions & she wasn't having it. After sleeping on the couch for over an hour I put her to bed. At ten she woke up. So far we have watched, Garfield's Halloween special, and now the halloween episode of 'Super Why'- after this maybe The great pumpkin, but she can't stay up all night, she has a spooky photo shoot tomorrow!! Passed out on the couch w/ Cookie!

All I wanted to do was give her a giant hug and hang out, and she passed out on me! So I'm secretly glad shes awake at this insane hour watching Halloween specials with me! xoxo

October Throwback !

This picture made me laugh so hard. Those two teeth, & her bat still has BOTH eyes! Now a days shes sporting a full mouth of chompers (Minus her 2nd molars) & her poor bat is a cyclops!

Pumpkins & Music class

 We took an early trip to the pumpkin patch last weekend. It was a perfect autumn day, couldn't have asked for better weather! The poor pumpkins took a beating with all the rain we got this year, so I have a feeling all the good ones wont stick around for too much longer! Lily had a ball, anything outside is a good time in her eyes.She hasn't quite mastered saying 'pumpkin' - but she tries, & can pick one out of a line-up. OH! She learned a new letter this week too, 'C' ! So now she knows just about five letters, & can also point them out in words & books. Not to mention her list of words that is rapidly growing! She needs practice with her "B" & "P" sounds, but we just found that out today, so it's something to work on. The "B" should be fairly easy considering she just got her 1st baby doll (THANK YOU Grandma!!) & LOVES it to pieces.

Lily has been learning new signs DAILY. 'Ball' was yesterday, and now 'duck' too! (Quack quack!) We are enrolled in an AWESOME music class, that meets weekly (right up the road from our house!) The teacher is so much fun! She sings & signs and keeps us on our toes! Next month we are starting another class (SO excited) its an ASL class/playgroup, also right up the road!!!

We had a few visitors over the past few weeks, & some evaluations done. Met some really helpful people, tomorrow (10.13.11) I get to hear the results of all the tests & evaluations from over the past few weeks. We have to make a ear nose and throat specialist appointment (After I find one), to rule out any deafness (Yeah, OK sure if you say so...) & to make sure she has no fluid in her ears.

This post was written last week so , since then we have visited quite a FEW pumpkin patches & even the Jack-o-lantern spectacular! I have so many pictures to share, but that will be a whole new entry later on today, sit tight! :D
