she knows what fun is!

Leila cracks us up! When she would get in the door jumper we would hold her legs out so they didn't drag and say 'weee' as we used it like a swing. Now she'll get kinda like a running start and then tuck her own legs up and swing back and forth!!
She also has mastered rolling! she loves it! She goes across the living room floor and as she gets to her back she hurries up and tucks her arms in.
Leila knows her bear- which was a gift from brey to me when he gave me a pearl necklace for my 21st birthday- and she knows ellie her elephant that is from horton hears a who, and her ball- all by name! brey is also teaching her the sign for bath and i'm teaching the sign for water, eat and milk. i can't wait until she starts signing back!!
Her fascination with all things electric is making me nervous- she likes the outlets! We have most of them blocked except the one in the bathroom- she leans to help turn off light switches around the house, and the bathroom light switch is in eye line of the outlet- so we've stopped letting her turn off the bathroom light!
It truly is amazing how much fun she is!!
