Ansley Harper: 14 Months!


You are getting so big Ansley!  Here are some of the latest and greatest things you are doing! 

*You love to play with your puppy dog, Alleigh and you always yell for both Alleigh and Cy when we're outside!  It is so sweet!

*You are amazed by butterflies!  We have several that are always in the backyard fluttering around.  You gasp and point with excitement when you see them!

* You are talking up a storm and mimicking everything we say!  We sometimes have a hard time understanding all your words, but there are several that are pretty clear.  Alleigh, Cy, Momma, Daddy, thanks, hi, bye bye.  Many others are attempted, but you have to strain to figure them out :).

*You are flying up stairs now!  One day you just decided that you weren't going to be cautious about them anymore or hold mommy's hand for support :( !  It is so cute to see you hike your little leg up on each one!

*You love playing with your new friends, Evy Kate and Ellie, and still love to play with your buddies, Jansen and Alex!

*You are such a good little singer and dancer!  Your dancing consists of a pretty humorous knee bend, one that makes me want to get down too!  And your singing is so beautiful!  Your daddy and I have recently joined choir, so you always get to hear our latest Sunday morning songs (as if we didn't sing enough to you before).  You hum along in the sweetest voice and most of the time...we stop in amazement at your talent!  We hope you love music as much as we do!

*We took a trip to the St. Louis Zoo and The Magic House with your Pamaw and Pappaw, & Ryan and Whitney.  We had a blast and can't wait to take you back soon!  Your love for all animals and the way you interact with them, as well as, learning other new and exciting things in this big world makes this stage that you're in right now so much fun!

*You have quite a big personality while we're out and about shopping.  You love to wave at all the people going by and even throw them kisses!  They usually stop to say how adorable you are (of course, I always agree...I may be just a little partial)!

*You still love to rock and take care of all your babies.  They get rocked, fed, burped (you even make the burping sound!), and most of the time you are giving them a ride in their stroller.  You love to take them on walks!

*You had your first pony ride at the local petting zoo and absolutely loved it!  You also loved the roosters...who knew!

*When it's time to pray at mealtime, we help you clasp your little hands together and bow your head.  It is the most precious thing!

Ansley, we just continue to grow deeper and deeper in love with you!  Every stage we say to each other...it can't get much better than this...and of course, it always does!  Your little personality is blossoming everyday and we love to watch you grow daily!  We love you sweet girl!
