Thirteen Months Old!
Grace is 13 months old today. Grace has made tremendous achievements over the past month. She is now able to identify the following lowercase letters: a, i, o, and t. Grace also identifies the uppercase letters A, B, and O. Grace will spontaneously name the letters b, t, i, and o when she sees them in books or upon seeing the Leap Frog letters on our refrigerator. Grace continues to love books. Her favorite books now are Goodnight Vermont and Goodnight Moon. Grace also loves drawing with markers, crayons, and paint. She is able to build a four block tower and she especially enjoys knocking it down once it is built. Grace loves puzzles too. She matches puzzle pieces to their corresponding picture and is able to put knob puzzles in their correct place. Grace identifies several shapes including circles, stars, hearts, and pentagons (the pentagon is her favorite shape!!). Grace's language skills continue to take off each and every day! Her favorite words are: bye-bye, hot, all done, hi, up, please, cracker, and apple. Daddy calls Grace the safety inspector of our household because she informs us many, many, many times per day that the iron and stove are "hot" and that the refrigerator and snow are "brrrr" (cold). Within the past few days Grace has started to raise both hands up to ask, "Where?" and for the very first time today Grace climbed up on our couch all by herself (uh-oh!). A few of Grace's favorite things are: apples, Elmo, books, letters, music & dancing, blocks, puzzles, her ladybug tent, animals, the Children's Museum, her toy iron (!), and playing with her kitchen set and dolls.

Happy 13 months Birthday, Amazing Grace. You are so cute reading your "Goodnight Vermont" book. Keep warm over there in Limerick, Maine. You add such a warm and pretty touch to this cold January weather! I am blowing you kisses over the rivers and through the snow.
Love, Your Maddy XO
