Quick Munch Update

Ryan took 5 steps on her own yesterday to walk from the ottoman to me.
Ryan has TWO new upper teeth breaking through (maybe her snaggle won't be so obvious!). She is up to 7 teeth now.
Ryan has learned to grind her teeth. She grinds her one upper snaggle with the lowers- drives me crazy (probably why she does it).
Ryan can hold up one finger to show you that she is one year old (especially when Grandpa asks- he spent 2 weeks teaching her that trick!)
Ryan says the cutest "uh oh" when she drops things. I almost encourage her to drop things to hear it.
Ryan prefers to feed herself and stuffs her mouth with fistfuls of food (half of it makes her mouth the rest on the floor). Fried rice at a restaurant = bad choice.
Ryan still prefers to let Mommy, Daddy, Mamaw, Grandpa, or anyone other than herself tip her sippy cup up for her. Straws seem to be working the best for independent drinking.
Ryan is finished with formula and only takes 1-2 bottles of whole milk a day! She prefers water in her sippy cup and could care less about a bottle before bed now.
Ryan has NO FEAR of water. Her Mom does now!
Ryan's favorite thing to do is pull every book off of her bookshelf and pretend to read each one to herself. My favorite thing to do is watch her do this. We sometimes do this for an hour. I need to get it on video. There really is nothing sweeter than watching those curious eyes carefully examine the book and listening to that little voice babble while those sweet little hands turn the pages.
I couldn't be more in love with this kid :-)
