Pressley said her first actual words (that she meant to say) today. It was the cutest thing...she was sitting on the floor in front of the fridge playing with the magnets when she dropped one. She looked down and said, "uh oh." I looked at Mike and said, "did you hear that?" I thought for a minute that it was a fluke, seeing as how she isn't even saying "Mama" or "Dada" yet (well, she does, accidentally say dada sometimes, but not in direct reference to Mike). Then she picked up another magnet, threw it down, and said, "uh oh" again. She repeated this a few times, which I am sure had something to do with the fact that she realized she had an audience. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry...I did laugh because it was hilarious, but I wanted to cry because I feel like Pressley has truly grown up in an instant. I am not sure if it is just because she is the second child or what. With LG, it always seemed as though we waited forever for the "next" thing to happen, but with Pressley it feels like I just blinked and it's almost been a year since she was born. I just want to put her in slow motion so I can enjoy every moment of her like I did with Lilly Grace. I guess the only remedy is to keep having kids so I can keep having moments:) (no, I am not dropping any hints or even thinking about a number three right now!!!)
I thought I would share some pictures that Lilly Grace took of my little Pressley just so we could freeze this moment in her life...the day she spoke her first words. LG has become quite the photography fanatic...her angles need work, but she's not half bad for a two-year-old. By the way, those are two little teeth you see in the picture...they just sprouted last week.
