The Most Beautiful Girl, made up for lost time this month. She had her first FOUR teeth come through, and four more are working their way out. However, in typical Amber fashion, she's been her happy self through most of it. I think its been harder on Chris who has been reminiscing how her's is his last gummy smile. Here's looking to having grand children some day.
Milestone after milestone keeps passing. With that in mind, I plan to use our time in Boston to focus on teaching her and Titus more sign language. Amber started signing "milk" this month when she wants a bottle. Titus has been really interested in signing new words so I think they are both ready and time waits for no one.
Chris jokes she has "cankles"; calves that go straight to the foot skipping the ankle but I'm afraid its true. She's a big girl, in fact in the picture at the top she's wearing 18 month clothing. She may not need all her big brothers to defend her; she'll be able to take care of herself. But then again a lady should always let a man be a man.

Chris' sister Lisa and her family came to visit this month and Amber enjoyed her first trip to SeaWorld.
One of the most entertaining things our busy girl does is an imitation of a truck backing up. She'll walk over and stand a couple feet in front of someone sitting on the floor, turn around slowly, then start backing up - beep! beep! beep! - till she bumps into them and then - plop! - sits down on them. The funny part is, she never looks back once she starts, so if you move a little she'll just keep backing up right past you.
Finally, this is Amber pleading to keep her brother's Clif Bar, apparently she liked it but as soon as I took the photo I told her she'd had give it up. We'll enjoy chocolate together when she gets a little older. For now she likes the crinkly wrappers.
