Seventeen months old!

Gabriella turned 17 mo this week. I can't believe how fast the time goes by. She is incredibly smart. I know, I know...I'm her mom and that's what all mothers say about their children. But it's true, she is smart (if you know her dad, you'd understand)! She is talking so much. The newest thing this week is "I ov oo" which of course is "I love you." The cutest thing she says is "blesh shoe" or "bless you." Right now if she hears someone sneeze, she'll say "besh shoe" and then after you say thank you, she says thank you! See...smart, huh? Sometimes she gets confused too. She knows that "up" means lets go upstairs. So she doesn't realize that when she wants to get on the couch she is also supposed to say "up." Right now she says, "down." :) I'm sure she'll get the hang of it soon though! After all, she is the smartest toddler I know!!
