Almost One!

Molly is almost 1 !!!!  I can hardly believe it!  I really do feel like I just gave birth a couple of months ago!  She is just precious!  I love every minute with her!  She doesn't go to the doctor until next week but I thought I would give a little Molly update.  Molly is a happy happy baby but VERY busy!  She wants to be on the go, exploring her surroundings.  We can pretty much close both bathroom doors, the big kids' bedroom door, and block off the dog food (yes, she has tried to eat it!) and then she can roam freely in the kitchen (where she likes to pull the tupperware out), dining room, living room (where she likes to pull out all the DVD's), hallway (where she bangs on the big kids' bedroom door if they are in there, and our bedroom without getting into too much trouble.  She eats shoes so you can't leave those around!  She eats pretty much all kinds of food and spaghetti is still a big favorite.  She loves yogurt, chicken, and the baby gerber granola bars.  She likes all kinds of fruits and veggies....hasn't been a big fan of pasta yet except when it has sauce all over it.  She is at a really great age.  She is walking every where...it is her favorite and most preferred method of getting around now.  She dances to any music...sways to lullabys, waves to total strangers, will blow kisses, do a high five, gives big slobbery open mouth kisses, loves loves her siblings and will "run" to tackle them, she is very attached to her Daddy and they do itsy bitsy spider their very own way that is really cute...she likes a pacifier, goes to sleep by herself, sleeps all night except on occasion, takes two naps a day, drinks from a sippy cup, still nurses in the evening and in the morning and sometimes late afternoon, will not keep her cute bows in, likes to "play" with hats but won't keep them on her head, pretends to use a phone, gasps when she sees something cool or new, says bye bye on occasion and says dog.."gog".  She says dada and mama but not all the time...."gog" is basically her most frequent word and every animal (even the polar bear at SeaWorld) is a "gog."  She laughs and smiles and make all kinds of funny faces...loves snack time...and now plays with her baby dolls and will sometimes rock them.  She shakes her head back and forth to say no no no....and has started to arch her back when she doesn't get her way.  She is my smallest baby...she looks kind of funny walking because she is the size of an 8 month old...kind of short and petite.  She has four teeth and will use them on your lips when she gives kisses!  LOVE HER LOVE HER LOVE HER!
