Joanna can clap!

As of last Thursday, my Joanna is clapping! I've been showing her how to clap for a while and it is exciting that she can finally do it! I will be SUPER excited when she gives me high five. (Yes, I'm a geek and am ALL ABOUT the high five!!)

I've been taking her room wall by wall and wall #1 is almost complete! I am doing fabric wall art that has birds that appear to be holding her name. All of the pieces are cut out and taped to the wall so now I just need time to apply the solution to make it stay! I was going to do clouds but realized that LESS IS MORE! I think it is perfect just the way it is so I don't want to mess with it.

In other news, I am wondering when "ma-ma" will make its grand appearance and be the new main thing Joanna says. :-/ Right now we hear da-da-da-da-da ALL DAY LONG! She's got a few na-na's and ya-ya's in there. I even heard ma-ma once or twice, but it's gone now haha! Everytime I do say ma-ma to Joanna, she shys away or yells at me!! Silly little girl.


Next week she will be 9 months! I am slowly planning her 1st birthday party and this is VERY exciting!! It will be simple and fun, just celebrating the birth of our angel sent straight from Heaven to us. (Also celebrating keeping a baby alive for a year! It's hard work!) 


She is on her first nap right now and for once I am not napping with her because I feel pretty awake so finally I am posting on here! She will be waking soon so that's Joanna's quick update! :-)
