a moment...

My sweet girl took her last bottle tonight. I held her while she was drinking it and it made me sad. This is one of the only times during the day that she lays still and we just watch each other. That moment is gone. Although I do get a moment every once and a while where she'll "cuddle" with me, she likes to roll around on our bed and play with the blankets and pillows and she'll plop over and lay there for a minute then get up and do it again.  I won't, however, miss buying expensive formula. So we'll move on. In replacement of our sweet bottle time together she did learn how to give kisses today which made it all better. She won't do it all the time but if I say "kisses!" and pucker up she'll lean in and say "mmmaaa"! LOVE it! 
Some 1 year pics. We went with a Groupon at picture people to save a little dough and they turned out pretty well. Not the gorgeous professional pictures we've had of her in the past but it took 20 minutes and was super cheap. And you can't make Adelaide look bad.  
She can now stand by herself for a few short seconds every once and a while and I think that walking is going to start here pretty soon. She's acting like such a toddler. It just amazes me. I'm loving this time though, conversations with her that sound like a mix of french and chinese, new messes (like almost pooping in the bathtub) and her exploring. I swear she's one of the most talkative one year olds I've ever seen. You should come talk to her sometime.
