My G-baby has learned an unfathomable amount of things. She is almost done with her bottle, she eats what ever everyone else is eating, she stands, tries to walk, crawls at warp 9, can get off the furniture, claps, high fives, dances, can say "hi" , "momma", dadda, and she has her own signature move which is sort of a happy fist shaking maneuver and a loud "OH!"
She of course recognizes people and voices both in real life and on TV. She is addicted to "Dora The Explorer" (can't wait till she understands that Great Grammies name is Dora!) and to Sponge Bob. She perks right up and takes notice when either come on TV. She does the same when she hears mommy or daddy on the phone.
She is learning to put things back where they came from, she knows how to open cupboard doors, how to turn pages in a book. She knows her name and the meaning of "no!", also, she knows that if she waits till you turn your head she can commence to doing whatever you just said no to! Oh, and she knows that almost everything from treats to dog tails can fit into her mouth.
She knows how to climb stairs and animals. She loves the animals and luckily all of ours love (well, tolerate) her. She loves to play in water and to make noise. She has abs of steel and is starting to get some hair... she adores undivided attention and her binky.
I think maybe when you are a parent that you have so much responsibility and life is so hectic that you forget how to marvel at every little thing a baby can do- when you are a grandparent it's different. Even though I see Audrey almost everyday she still learns things in between our time together that can amaze me. The first year is such a wonder, and I am sure all the years to follow will be too!
HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY AUDREY VALOR
