Every day is a new day

Well Kristen has been full of new surprises! A few days ago she was in the bathtub and I usually don't let her touch the soap because she likes to put it in her mouth, but I let her touch it with her finger. She looked back at me like, " Are you really going to let me do this?". I let her touch the soap a few times and then she began to rub it on her body and her head, washing herself! It was so cute. It amazes me the things that she catches onto and does.

Kristen has also become much more verbal the past few days. She is constantly calling Raleigh and looking all over the house for her. She loves her shoes and to say the word shoe. She has been talking pretty much as long as she is awake. Tonight in the bathtub she said "Big Bird". It is so fun to watch her and see that her brain is working away making all kinds of connections.

She is so full of joy and we are so blessed to be her parents. We love you Kristen.
