Arianna turned one year old today. Along with this landmark, here are a few more.

A couple of weeks ago she took her first step, then yesterday she was getting more adventuresome in walking around without holding onto the furniture. Today, she amazed us by walking all the way across our living room all by herself. She is truly growing by leaps and bounds, and it is so amazing to watch it all happening!

As far as talking, she says "Mama," "Dada," and "Ball" all the time. We've heard her say "Doggy" and "Kitty" a few times, too. She also likes to dance and bob along to music. She is getting really good at waving hello and goodbye to people, and she claps whenever we say "Yay!" Oh, and the latest is that whenever she gets a minor bonk on the head, she then slaps herself on the the side of her head with her hand and says "Boh" for bonk... she made up that sign all by herself!

This afternoon Arianna and I went birthday shopping, and we got her a lot of the winter clothes she needed. We captured these movies this evening. The first is her walking, and the second is her playing with her new birthday toys. She is such a joy!
