Tanner and Marsha: 15 mths!

Wow!

15 mths! As the grand-parents have seen lately...she has personality coming out all over. She loves to go bye bye, play with legos, watch her movies, eat snacks, kiss/rock her baby, play with daddy's jar of pens, and WALK everywhere now. These are only a few of her favorites...she is getting much better about playing by herself. She does great entertaining herself for short periods of time now which has been very helpful. Ppl say it gets harder when they begin to walk but it has been easier for me b/c she wanted to walk with my hands all of the time before. She LOVES LOVES her baby. She rocks it, pats it, tells it to "ssshhh shhh" (like Nanu taught her), and then gives it the bah bah to drink. Ugh...it is so cute! She carries the big baby around everywhere. She can definitely communicate most things that she wants now...whether it be with words or that little whiney "ugh ugh UGH ugh ugh UGH" and her point...that I hear/see much of the day. =)

We had a great time with my parents. Parker and I visited them for two weeks and then they came up here for my dad's appt. Thankfully, my dad had another great appt!! Praise the Lord for that!

Parker also learned how to say "Nanu" and "Pa" so that of course melted them. She knows how to wink (with both eyes) which stole her grandpa's heart. It is precious!

Tanner will be done with his dissertation a week from today!!! He has been working hard on the bibliography...I think it might be around 250 pages altogether (or more)...crazy!

We are looking forward to going to Boston at the end of this month to look for apartments. Pray that we find one!

Well, I will let these pictures speak for themselves. My big girl camera is broken and I had to send it off again so hopefully I can get it back soon and take some good pics of P. These are some from my point and shoot which has a delay so it was quite difficult trying to capture her as you can see. She is busy busy these days!
