After Moab we had a birthday party for Vanessa with both the Bradys and the Purdys. It was about a week and a half early but we decided it would be more fun to have the family around than just the three of us. Vanessa thoroughly enjoyed her cupcake and opening presents. Thanks to everyone for all the sweet gifts. Unfortunately, we didn't take any pictures. We videoed it, but no pictures. Jon's parents have a bunch so we'll try to get some from them.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY VANESSA! Her actual day was May 20. Can you believe she is already 1?
Here are a few updates on Vanessa.
She has 4 1/2 teeth. The two bottom, her two fangs on top (our little vampire) and her front middle tooth has come through. The other one is close behind.
She is extremely determined and strong willed. I have no idea where she gets that from!
She is completely done nursing. I wasn't even really trying to wean her, it just happened. It was a combination of her always being so busy and my being pregnant, my milk just kind of dried up. It's bitter sweet but it is a nice break before the next one comes.
Still working on the sleeping thing. Two nights ago she woke up four times (about every two to three hours). She would instantly go back to sleep when I went in the room but she just wanted someone there with her. Last night she did really well again though and slept from 9-6. And then went back to sleep until about 7:30.
She is babbling constantly and can say a few words. She says mama, daddy, doggie, and baby. She can also quack and bark.
