Amelia sings all the time. Songs she's heard, songs she's made up, songs she doesn't know - but pretends. She's always singing. Luckily, she has a nice voice and sings on key! Here is a little preview.

Evelyn Bernice
Oh, how I do love little Miss Evelyn Bernice. But man, is she busy! She's so much like Ellie at this age. Always into something, wanting your constant attention, finding a new way to do something. I feel more prepared this time because there are more eyes watching her and I have more experience, but I can't help but know it's never enough. She is still very leery of strangers, and doesn't give out smiles very easily. Even folks or family she knows well, she is slow to warm up.
She's talking more and more, and we are able to understand more and more these days. Some funny ones are:
boobie = movie
cock = sock
seeming soup = swimming suit
I've been singing to her for a few months now. It just calms her, so that she can settle down to go to sleep. Over the past couple of weeks, she's started singing with me. The first time she did it, I nearly cried. It's so sweet. Here is a video of us singing "Godspeed" by Dixie Chicks. It's my favorite lullaby. We also sing Over the Rainbow, but not in this video. Oh, and of course, Amelia needs to try and steal the show!
She's counting and doing ABC's too!
