She's completely off the bottle now and happily drinking whole milk from her sippy cups. Last Saturday she drank from a straw for the first time (I let her have some sips of my Jamba Juice).
On Thursday she got her first skinned knee from playing outside (Ms. Chris said she wasn't even upset about it and kept right on playing).
She's finally doing more sign language with us (though in her own interpretations). For several weeks now she has recognized birds, either the live ones in a cage at daycare or pictures in a book. She open and closes all her fingers on her hand for "bird" (the sign is actually opening and closing your fore finger and thumb like a bird's beak). That was her only consistent sign until recently. Now she raises her hands upward and outward to indicate she's all done eating (instead of throwing all her food on to the floor). Today she successfully signed "more" when she ate lunch and dinner! I *think* she also signed "water" to me too.
She's sporting all the new threads she got for her birthday. Zoey is just the cutest thing in her little shorts and tanks!
If you can't tell, I'm sooo proud of my little angel ;) Thanks for listening!
