Calla is on her way to having 10 teeth! She's got four across the front on top, two at the front in the bottom, two top one-year molars, and she's working on cutting her bottom one-year molars! (Bottom right has come in, bottom left has broken skin but not completely in) She has the cutest toothy grin--love!!
She is also turned into a compete snugglebunny! Not that she wasn't before, but its at a whole new level. When you pick her up, she automatically curls in and rests her head on your shoulder--heart melted! She also loves to give big kisses and makes a smacking noise when she does. When your sitting on the floor, she automatically flops into your lap. And when your squatted and she wants you to stand with her, she'll nestle in on your shoulder. Complete sweetheart!!
Another funny trait she has picked up is wanting to be just like big sister. She pretty much thinks she's as big as Augusta and that she can do anything her big sis does. If Augusta is spinning (spinning queen here), Calla is spinning. If Augustavis eating, she wants whatever she has. And if she's feeding herself, you can bet Calla will be too. Climbing on the furniture like sissy...check. Drinking from big girl cups...double check. Trying daredevil things I warn Augusta not to do...triple check. I've got my work cut out for me. 
And on the train of thought if sisters, it has been so much fun lately to really see them interact. Calla's little personality is coming out and she won't let Augustaget away with running the show anymore. She does follow her around and want to be into whatever Augusta has. But she also doesn't like Augusta trying to take things from her or keep her out of things. They love to chase each other--they get the giggles while doing it and it just warms your heart. They also love to cuddle and snuggle each other. I hope this love they have for one another only grows!
Along with her personality coming out, Calla has become more vocal and interactive. She requests her "Ba-ba" every mornings. She waves "hi" and "bye" and uses those words consistently. She drags you to food and babbles all about it. She also babble-whines when she gets hurt or Augusta does something (Telling on her). She requests "mama or mommy" and "dada or daddy" (uses both names). She also loves and requests her "babies."
Babydolls are definitely Calla's favorite toys. She loves to snuggle them. She'll tuck them under a blanket. And she even feeds them bottles, or from a utensil. She tucks them under her arm and carries them almost everywhere she goes--even to bed some nights. She loves to give them "love" (hugs and kisses).
She also loves to do and motions/dance to songs. Two favorites are "happy and you know it" and "God loves me". She dances (spins), stomps, and does motions at the correct times. It's precious!! 
Calla it's so much fun to see you grow and change and watch you become "you". We love you baby bug!!
