She suddenly seems so grown up and mature. I am looking forward to her being able to walk on her own around the house and especially outside. Simply because she has gotten too heavy to tote around everywhere. My back is looking forward to those days. I do anticipate her getting into more things and me having to chase her when she decides to run away from me. But for whatever reason I am not scared and feel more excited for the challenge than anything. Bring it on Adah!
She knows and loves to tell us what a cow, doggie and lion say. She loves baths. When we tell her it is bath time, her face lights up and she shouts "Ba, ba, ba" as she crawls down the hall toward the bathroom. Her Auntie taught her how to hold up one finger when you ask how old she is. She loves to listen to music, especially "Rain for Roots" a gift from her Aunt and Uncle. The words are written by the woman who wrote "Jesus Storybook Bible" and the singers are women with beautiful, folky voices. It is fun to enjoy her "kiddie" music with her instead of being annoyed or getting a headache. I highly recommend this album that has sweet Truth for our children and for ourselves.
These pictures are from the last weekend in September when our friends from Burlington, Danny, Grace and Anna came to visit. Anna and Adah are eight days apart. This was Anna's first time to the beach and she and Adah loved it! What a sweet weekend with dear friends!
