Bella's 1 year update!

Okay so we are so behind on our blog! Lets just say its not on the top of our priority list...but today I'm making time to share all about Bella at 1 year! She is so smart (yes we are a little bias) but she is picking things up so fast!
First off she started walking 2 weeks after she turned 12 months...and its been so fun to see her make her way around the house walking and exploring at her new eye level! You can tell she is so proud and excited to be up on her own two feet. Now that she is discovering new things and getting into things that she shouldn't she loves to look at us for permission to touch and if we say no she shakes her head no also. So cute!
Along with picking up on walking she has been increasing her vocabulary. Here are the words she says: momma, dadda, Hope (our dog), shoes, socks, juice, up, bath, teeth and ball. Her pediatrician wants her to say at least ten words by 15 months...I think its safe to say she is going to be a talker! She babbles and speaks her own language mainly to Hope. Hope is her best friend. She wakes up calling for her, she follows her, she feeds her, she shares her toys with her and she even barks with her.
Bella also loves trains..she makes a train sound when she plays with them. She is trying to say train but hasn't quite got it yet. She loves being outside. We can't say the word outside or she gets her shoes and starts to put them on to go outside and if you tell her no she gets very upset.
She now has 7 teeth and eat just about anything and everything you give her. Her favorite meal is breakfast and she loves to use forks and spoons now. She feeds herself and even wipes her mouth to clean up.
Her favorite songs to sing are ABC's, If your happy and you know it, and Head Shoulders, Knees and Toes. She know where her head, toes, eyes, nose and belly is. And she gets a kick out of touching our belly buttons! She laughs a lot and loves to give besitos (kisses). She is sleeping through the night and loves to watch Elmo first thing when she wakes up. She also likes the show Dinosaur Train. Whenever she hears music she dances and giggles, we think she is very musically inclined!
She is so much fun at this age! We are having the best time ever and no matter what is going on in our life, the time with her is more important to us than any material thing. God blessed us with such an amazing life with her that we want to make every moment count...and we intend to do so.
