Growing in leaps and bounds!

Well, every weekend brings new surprises. What's neat is she waits for the weekends so we can be a part of all her firsts! First of all, as you know last weekend she started saying Ba, Ba ... well, as of Saturday night, she was talking to "Elmo" and said DADA for the first time!!!!! And now she doesn't stop saying it. It is so precious! She also was able to go to her first fireworks Saturday night after the Strawberry Festival. I was a little nervous because they are so loud, but she LOVED them! We started out in the car, but she just sat back and watched so I attempted to take her out of the car and she was mesmorized ... She might be alot like her daddy, but she defintely has her mom's fearlessness :) Then on Sunday she was off and running. Ok, maybe not running, but up until now she was army crawling and would occasionally get on all fours, but then fall down. Sunday she was off on all fours across the floor. Watch out world! She has also figured out how to go from crawling to sitting and laying down to standing in her crib. She scared me half to death last night when I walked in her room expecting her to be sleeping and she was standing in her crib laughing at me!
This morning though my poor baby woke up all congested. She cried out then just started mumbling under her breathe, almost like she was complaining. My heart melted. I am hoping this will be a quick passing cold as we are supposed to go to camp this weekend. She is a fighter though and still had lots of smiles this morning!
Robin also has Hailey's 1st year dvd almost finished. I cannot wait to share with everyone! She has come a LONG way! I am so proud of all her accomplishment ... by the time we get the physical therapy consult she won't need it!

OMG!!!! She's crawling. Yay! Did you guys end up going camping? Is she feeling better?? Adia finally learned to say Mama without crying. And now EVERYTHING is Mama, which I find kinda odd, coz when she learned her other words, they were specific for things... it's odd. Well, I hope we get to see you tomorrow.
