Then and now...

It has been too long, I know...  Between work, company, Molly and yard work we have been pretty crazy lately.  Molly has managed to continue to grow with wild abandon and I found this video that was taken a year ago and it really shows how much she has changed:

My how things have changed since a year ago.  Molly is building her vocabulary and attempting to tell us all kinds of stories.  The last two nights have been challenging in the sleep camp, last night I thought for sure she was in some sort of pain since she was screaming so loudly.  I think she is working on her ability to string together words and it is keeping her up at night.  So far she can say doggy (her first official word), daddy, mommy, Oscar, Daisy, yellow (definitely my kid), grandpa, cookie, nigh-night, and a couple other things if she really wants to.  Our nephew Cooper was here for awhile and she can kinda get his name out too.  Molly is very taken with her baby dolls and was also a big Cooper fan; she loves to touch his bald head and give him hugs.  Love only goes so far and does not extend to allowing Cooper to play with her copy of "Hop on Pop" though :).  Her is a video of what happened when I made an attempt to put Molly to bed tonight:
