I can...

Here is a list of some fun (old and new) things that Amaia can do-things Amaia can Say and things she can Sign are somewhere over on the right hand side of the blog. Amaia Can:

*Snap (or at least try)
*knock on the door with a fist (so cute)
*'answer' the telephone with 'hello'
*Loves to try and out her own clothes on
*Helps cleaning by handing me toys to put away after the bath; hands me clean laundry to fold out of the dryer; pulls weeds out front and puts them in the 'weed bucket'; and picks up trash off the floor and puts it in the trash.
*Loves to read books-they have become part of the wake up and bedtime routines
*Play 'Peek-a-Boo" and even say "boo!" at the end
*If some one is sad, she will walk up to them and become sad herself, and then try to give them a hug
*Likes to help mommy pay at the store
*every time she wakes up she grabs her teddy and give it a big bear hug (while grunting)
*folds her arms and sits down when she wants to watch Baby Signing Time
*High Five
*likes to wash herself with tissues, wipes, or anything like that (before she shreds them, of course)
*somersault (with help)-bends over and tucks her head under so we can push her over
*Throw a ball
*wash herself with the soap
*put on powder foundation and blush (not always in the right places)
*brushes her hair (from the back over the top to the front) :)
*likes to stuff the ball pit balls down her (and my) shirt
*is obsessed with taking baths, washing her hands, and going outside
*loves to 'play' xbox with us-holds the controls and pushes buttons
*outside, she'll walk across the street to our friends house and knock on the door for Andrew to come out and play
*will share her food (i.e. stuff it into your mouth whether you want it or not)
*comes and tells me when she has a dirty diaper, and then will run to her room to get it changed
*sign 'ow' and then point to where the owie is

and I'm sure there are more, but I've been thinking too hard about it and can't think of any more. But she's no longer our little baby anymore, that's for sure. She's way too fun for that!
