Talia Tales

Talia is growing and learning so quickly that I cannot procrastinate on a post any longer.

Jon helped me compile a list of Talia's new skills. They are as follows:

* Using her sippy cup by herself
* Giving us high fives
* Giving us kisses (well, she has been doing that for a couple months)
* Blowing rasberries
* Repeating sounds
* Pointing to Mommy and Daddy in pictures
* Signing "milk"
* Turning the pages of books when asked
* Finding the hidden cat in her dog book
* Standing for a few seconds
* Cruising all over the house
* Demonstrating understanding of: Daddy, Mommy, eat, milk, book, come, stop, let go
* And so much more...

Here are some pictures.

Talia enjoys relaxing in the hammock chair from Auntie Angie.

Talia's first crawl in the grass.

On the prowl

Talia enjoys dinner while Daddy is hard at work.

Dinner and a show

Daddy prepares Talia for her first run through the sprinklers.

Talia with Daddy

Talia cautiously feels the spray on her feet.

Talia is not sure if she likes the sprinklers

She is always on the go.

On the move

But she certainly has time to play with Daddy.
