"Miss March"
Matti's Aunt Ashley and Uncle Pat gave her this precious Miss March outfit for her birthday. So Cute!
Mattilee "talks" pretty much all the time so when she is quiet it almost always means she is into something. This is how I found her after a minute or so of not hearing anything from her.

Her birthday present finally came in. She loves her new bean bag. :)
The house we stayed in the mountains. We had so much room which was so nice for our growing families!
Fun with Daddy
Feeding the ducks with their daddies. Matti ate the bread instead of throwing it to the ducks:)
Happy Girl:)
Having fun with Gigi!

I've been a horrible blogger. I can't believe I haven't blogged about our Spring Break trip by now. My parents took our family to the mountains for Spring Break. We had such a great, relaxing time. I love spending time with my family and it was nice to spend a few days with them.
At Mattilee's 1 year check up she was 29 3/4 inches long and weighed 18lb 15 oz. She is now 13 months and 2 weeks and weighs a little over 20 lbs and has gotten taller too. She's growing so fast! We have a sofa table that she loves to pull up to and stand under. It seems like just a month ago she fit underneath with at least an inch of clearance, now she barely fits underneath.
Matt and I are constantly amazed at everything she's learning.
-She can now say Momma, Dada, Pop (bop), Bobo (Matt's dad), ball, bird, baby
-She roars like a lion when we ask her what a lion says (it's the sweetest little gentle roar:)
-She recognizes so many different people by their names.
-She can also recognize and point to so many different things: lots of animals, toys, different foods, and we're starting to learn colors.
- She can do the movements to songs like If You're Happy and You Know It and Patty Cake
-She signs "please" and "all done" and we're working on "thank you." It's neat that even though she can't say these words yet, she knows their meanings and how to use them. Everything she sees that she wants now she signs "please." It's so sweet!
- And she started walking last night!!!!! She's been taking a few steps here and there but has been so hesitant to really let go. Last night at Matt's parent's house she walked several times in between Matt's mom and me. We would all clap and cheer for her and then she started taking a step or two and clapping for herself! So cute!!! I hope to post a video of her walking soon.
