She's growing up!

Time sure is flying by. Paisley will be 1 in a month... WOW!! Paisley amazes me every day. The new things she learns, like... stand up in her high chair that we foolishly bought because the old owner cut out the safety straps... walking around the furniture... climbing the stairs... opening all the lower cupboards and pulling out Mama's glass bake ware... continuously pulling on the phone cord... eating all sorts of food with her hands such as, green beans, apples dices, bread, cheese and gold fish... when you ask her how her cough is, she'll fake cough... ask her to sing and she'll sing... she does indian... she'll give high 5 too. She has become such a better sleeper. She's been going to bed like a good girl. We take a bath, put on our jammies, eat oatmeal, get a drink of water, read a book, say our prayers, lay down like a big girl and never make a peep again. She wakes up around 4:30 or 5:00 and I feed her a small bottle (she's on whole milk now) and then she goes back to sleep until 8:00 or so. I know I've gotten myself into something terrible by feeding her when she wakes up at 5, but it's so hard to lay in bed and listen to her cry. I don't doubt that she's hungry because even I have to eat something in the middle of the night. That's if I'm up anyway. Some things from being pregnant don't go away.
We're all finished with nursing. No more engorged, clogged ducts. Too much info, sorry!
Something that she's started doing that's funny is she'll laugh when she hears someone else laugh. I was on the phone today and started to laugh, and so did she. I had a church activity tonight and some people were laughing and she would laugh too... even if she doesn't understand what's being said, she can tell it's funny. I was talking to a friend from my ward on the phone today and when I hung up, Paisley said "Da-da?", I said "No sweetie that wasn't Daddy". This was the same conversation she was listening to when she was laughing along with me. It was cute.
These are a few pictures I took in our backyard a couple of weeks ago, the same day as her first haircut actually.
