Updates

Bella has been growing and changing daily. She is saying more and more words and loves singing and dancing. She surprises us everyday with the new things she comes up with. She also loves telling us what to do! She is fearless as well, which sometimes I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. 

Recently we have had a litter of new ducklings in the neighborhood. They waddle through our yard daily and Bella loves getting as close to them as they will allow. 

This was taken about a month ago when they came right up to the garage and Bella and Papa fed them some bread.

 this was a few weeks ago when she was trying to chase them

She loves her magnet doodle and her favorite thing to draw is a "happy face". Although she can't draw one well she likes trying and loves asking others to draw them for her. 

 She also loves corn on the cob and can eat a whole ear with no problems. Who would have ever thought that she would eat that, I never did. She normally doesn't like getting her hands dirty. She will whine and say her hands are dirty and need to be cleaned. 

She also loves her "bench" that Papa made her. She calls it her bench and she carries it with her everywhere. She wants to see everything we are doing these days.  She will run and get her bench and tell me to wait until she gets her bench. Here she is helping Joe install the hardware on the cabinets in the kitchen.
