52 project – a portrait of logan, once a week, every week, in 2013
looking back at my last monthly update, i realize how much this kid has grown. and if i’ve said it once, i’ll say it again…i love this stage in which lo is oozing personality and independence. we sit back + watch her unwind and still look at one another in shock that she belongs to us. she owns our hearts + fortunately for us, we own hers (for now anyway).
says: the list has become too long to type and just this past week lo’s begun to attempt repeating most everything we say. and when she’s not speaking english, this girl is ‘talking’ up a storm. to whom we’re not so sure of, but her attitude, inflection + hand gestures have us in hysterics. we’re enjoying our little conversations + watching her little mind work so hard. a few cute favorites: no, please, thank you, sorry, dirty, outside, slide, shovel, bubble, and some adorable animal noises on command.
signs:Â although she can say everything she signs, it’s still adorable to see her put the two together. and she often surprises us with new signs we worked on months ago and have since forgotten about.
chomper count: we’re looking at a full mouth of 16 teeth these days, including the pointy vampire ones that are just poking through.
eats: while lo will eat almost anything, meal time has become interesting in our home. it’s best that i ignore + leave the scene. otherwise i’m left with food in my hair + floors to scrub. i will say that meals are a lot less stressful now that lo can eat just about anything and on-the-go. goldfish have saved our lives on many accounts!
obsessed with: the ‘moon’. day + night this kid asks for the moon and if it’s not full she asks for ‘more’.
loves: the stuffed cheetah we bought her at the philly zoo. he’s been named ‘chee’ and we find him by lo’s side more often than not. – chalk + drawing outside. which obviously i’m all for. you can even skip bedtime in our house if you want to draw. – stacking blocks, sorting laundry, arranging toys. you see a pattern here? a girl after my own heart! – gym + art class where the mascot is a ‘puppy’ and you come home with a puppy stamp to show off all day. – the number ‘two’. – ‘george’, the curious kind. – and cats, cause duh!
