May Recap

May 2011:
Well, I haven't been great about keeping up with this, but Laura is cute as ever.  Recently:
  • Laura just got a tricycle from Grammy and Grampy.  She can't work the pedals quite yet, but she loves being pushed on it.
  • For the past month or so, Laura says "Cheee-az!" and clinks her sippy to our glasses as a toast.
  • Laura still isn't saying a ton of words, but she communicates fairly well.  She has added "Gall Gah" to her hand signals when she's through eating, and she nods her head very earnestly to say "Please."
  • She can point out several body parts and has said "head" a few times.
  • Laura loves playing Ring Around the Rosie, most notably at Auntie Liz's wedding over Memorial Day. She also bit a friend at school when he decided he was through ringing the rosie.
  • Laura was one of the flower girls (the cutest?) at Auntie Liz's wedding!
  • Laura says "Hot!" and blows on her food when it's still too warm.
  • We walked outside the other day to get to school, and Laura yelled "HOT!" and started blowing to try to cool down the atmosphere.  If only that worked!
  • Laura loves shoes, bags, jackets, hair ties - basically any accessory she can find.  She says "Sha" for shoe from time to time.
  • Laura loves her dinosaur book, and will find it if you ask her for it.  She has even said "die-saur" a few times.
  • We are going through a bit of a bratty toddler phase right now with lots of tantrums, obstinance, and some pushing and biting.  I can't wait to get out of this phase.
  • Laura has started saying "baby," and I think she uses it when referring to herself.
