The New House

Alexis is in love with the new house. She wants to go down the steps like an adult, which is adorable, and she loves having more space. Originally I think she was taking a little time to adjust to her rec room downstairs, but now she loves it, ESPECIALLY because of her new toy. I finally bought her a play kitchen off of craigslist, and she is in love with it. It came with a few toys, and she's in love with the french fry it came with, which is hysterical because she adores french fries. The house has made her very happy, and when I look at her now having all of this space, I wonder how we ever would have made it much longer in our old apartment.

She is babbling a ton now, and using words more often, although still fairly infrequently. She doesn't have a huge vocabulary, but she's good at mama and bye bye, and she'll say other things randomly. She has molars coming in right now and seems to be doing okay with that. She continues to eat well and grow well. Seventeen months old today - wow!

I know this is a short post, but (understandably) things have been pretty busy. Alex is happy happy happy, and was overjoyed to have her daddy home after a long trip. I tried posting a brief video of her favorite new pastime, but it wasn't working, so feel free to check it out on my facebook page.
