Curious George

Sorry, no pictures this time, just funny anecdotes...
Tenna really likes animals, she LOVES doggies. We went to the library the other day and checked out "Curious George and the Puppies." When I turned the page to reveal the puppies she immediately started barking. I was just amazed that she could figure out that those funny little drawings were puppies. Needless to say I was impressed.
Next...she is walking well now and has discovered a new realm in the world of dance. Her dancing used to only consist of bouncing while sitting on the floor. Now she likes to bounce and twirl in circles. She was doing it this morning with my bandana on her head, I wish I had a picture!
And last...this is more of a brag...we are trying to get her used to the idea of being soft with a baby and gentle, and it seems to fascinate her a little. We went to church yesterday and she started saying "baby," (more like be-be) and pointing at the little ones around her. So now she says, dada, ball, bird (ba), puppy (papy), and baby. No, not mama. I tried to teach her that by pointing at her chest and saying "baby," or "Tenna," then pointing at my chest and saying "mama." Now she comes up to me whenever I have a design on my shirt and pokes it while proudly proclaiming "MAMA!" Oh well, I will just have to wait for my recognition I guess ;)
