Some more pictures

Ashleah found the camera charger on accident, and of course thanks to Murphy's Law, less than 12 hours after I bought one online. Always the way....

But there are plenty of pictures from other cameras, so here they are.

This is how she sleeps everytime

A Baby Fix, sorry still no pictures

Ashleah still hasn't found the charging station for her camera. I have my camera, but it doesn't take video, and the good parts are watching her do the drunken walk. She walks everywhere now, and tries to run sometimes. Falls less often, I think she will be a seasoned accomplished full-time walker within a month.She's been on solid foods for a while, but still dines mostly on baby food and about once a day on mom.Her vocabulary has increased from dada, to dada and mama, if we put some effort into it, simple words can come within a few days of each other.Ashleah has been emphasizing the sign language and she now comprehends and corresponds with "please, more, all done, food, and drink."Clapping bouncing, et cetera are available on command of the word rather than showing and her repeating, so she has made that leap easily.She will now hold your hand and walk along side you as well, and can make it up and down simple steps. In fact her once a day ritual is going out with one of us to the mailbox as she walks on the driveway or in the grass and she enjoys that immensely. She pushes buttons excessively, so I'm wondering when my amplifie, or TV equipment will break from her turning it on and off, if only she would discover the power button on her mothers computer :)
