So cute

Layla is really trying to say "mama." She stares intently at my mouth as I repeat "mama" and she will follow it with "dadammmmm dadammmmm." It's so stinkin' cute!

She waves very well and claps in her own special way. :-)

She is pulling herself up all the time and even standing with no hands as she leans on items around her. She sometimes gets "stuck" and can't quite get back down. Mommy always comes to the rescue, though.



**Okay, I just read what I've written so far in case I needed to make any changes and I realized that what Layla says when she's trying to say "mama" looks like she's saying something naughty. Haha. She isn't. It's more like she's saying "dada -mmmmmmm." I hope that clears things up a bit more. **

She has 4 teeth.

She loves her Tigger toy that sings and bounces. She gets excited and bounces right along with him.

Although she's been doing it for some time, pulling her socks off seems to still be her favorite trick.

She loves watching kids. She will contort herself just to keep an eye on any kid in the area.

She had a blast at her friend Kate's house. You see, Kate just turned 1 and has some pretty cool toys. In fact, Layla was so intrigued by the toys, she was up far longer than she ever has been at night (with no nap to break it up) and didn't fuss once.



She would much rather feed herself than be spoon-fed.



She loves to "fall" from mommy's arms. She giggles to no end when I pretend I'm dropping her.

Listening to daddy play his guitar makes her smile.

She enjoys sticking out her tongue.
