Alrighty!

Layla's first, three-syllable word is, "Alrighty." Pretty funny. She also recently started putting together phrases like, "Alright Daddy," "No, no Kitty," and "Bye, bye Mamma." It's really neat to see her putting things together and forming little sentences.

Yesterday at church she decided to do her "Happy Dance" (as we call it) in the middle of the aisle during sacrament meeting. Basically, she spun around in circles while saying, "Happy!" until she got so dizzy she started running into things and falling over, which she thinks is hilarious. And she has such a loud, contagious laugh. Then Mitch decided to take her out in the hall to release some energy. As they were leaving, she waved to me and said, "Bye, bye Mamma." So cute. She also tells me "Bye, bye Mamma" when Mitch puts her to bed at night. It makes me smile.
