This month would be marked by her ability to put words together!
1. New Words: boo-boo, boat, sit, go, Daddy, peace, no-way, Mikey, Chris, Beve (aka Steve), Britt, Kelly, magnet, stuck, beast (for Beauty and the Beast), cheese (for the camera), fish, trash, blanky (for her blanket), watch, apple, ready, yes, thank you, you're welcome
2. New Signs: Water, socks, potty
3. She found her shadow. One night at the lake as we were going to bed, the light from the alarm clock casted a shadow of Annabelle on the wall. She pointed to it and then started moving back and forth and would laugh when it would move!
4. July 8th, she went stinky's on the potty! July 21st she did tinkles on the potty! We are officially potty training!
5. She can put her crocs on all by herself. She also tries to put her pants/shorts on. While sitting she can get both legs in but she can't stand up and pull them up.
6. She is putting words together, for instance she picked up the phone and said, "Hi, Daddy" and she says, "No way". Just today she said, "Hey guys, Look!" Josh and I couldn't believe it!
7. She likes to play with other kids now. Before she was content playing by herself, but now she is interacting with others.
8. She has a fabulous memory. When she sees Wal-mart she says, "cookie" because they always give her a cookie for free at the bakery and when she sees the Starbucks logo she says two things, "bucks" and "Mmmmm". She likes to drink my Caramel Light Frappuccino.
9. Her favorite toys this month have to be her babies and her strollers. She is such a girl! She loves taking care of her babies and taking them for walks.

10. She loves walking up and DOWN the steps like a big girl. Although she needs at least one of Mommy's or Daddy's fingers still. We were at a friend's house who had railings on their steps and she came all the way down while holding onto the railing. Needless to say, I thought I was going to have a heart attack and had my hands out just in case she fell.
11. She USED to love to climb up Daddy! She always made sure I was watching too!
She climbed up into the drawer and then was saying, "Stuck, stuck"

WARNING: Don't try this at home! This video was taken on July 24th. However, we just spent 2 1/2 hours in the ER this afternoon (July 31st) because her elbow came out of the joint doing this! She is fine now, they had to pop her elbow back in twice before it set.
