Our Cuddle Girl

 This girl is our cuddliest baby! Almost anytime we pick her up she puts her head on our shoulder and often will tap us with her hand. We are treasuring this now. She is growing up!
 I really don't use this sling but was taking the picture for a friend.
She is standing, but not quite cruising. She is still strengthening her core, and can do some amazing squats :). 
She has a bad cold (our whole family), so she is not sleeping well. We keep saying that when she starts sleeping well consistently (longer than a week), we will move her in with Tobin or the girls....maybe by the time she is two (hope not).
She is still babbling like crazy but really doesn't have any words she says clearly. She can say 'bye bye', but doesn't do that much. 
She can sign the sign language for 'more' 'all done' and 'please' but is still learning how to use them. 
We are trying not to give her too many 'nos' in our house, there could be a zillion. Right now: No going in the kitchen, no throwing food off the highchair' and 'no touching outlets', this is what we are training right now. So....she pulls books off the shelves and we let her, yes, she has ripped a few. 
Her personality is still coming through and we think she may be the biggest jokester with her little mischievous grin.

That's our Gabrielle these days at 13 months old.
