technologically inclined


I took Finley with me to my doctor's appointment for my ears the other day while Avery was at preschool. Finley was being a little finicky, so I gave her my "go to" distraction- my cell phone... that usually keeps her entertained for a good 5 minutes or so. She opened it up and got straight into the camera feature. She pointed the phone at this little old lady who had just sat down and said "CHEESE" clear as day. She continued to use this line on everyone in the office, since she got such a rousing response the first time. Finley is just a little sponge right now, soaking up everything she sees and hears. She is doing (or trying to do) everything that Avery does. She is also starting to say more and more words every day. She is getting closer to really walking too... I think if we had more carpet she would be off and running by now, but with the hardwood floors she is a little more cautious. She just amazes me! This age is so much fun- something new everyday!

Finley's 13 month word repertoire:
NO (a favorite of hers)
mama
dada
bye-bye
Avery (a-ree)
Bubba
DayDay
TeeTee (for Aunt Tiffany)
CHEESE
eye
nose
and a lot of babble that obviously means something to her, but no one else can quite understand yet.
