personality snapshot

I know it doesn't count when a parent says this about their own child, but Allison has a really cute personality. She is quite playful, and will do a variation of peekaboo where she hides her face and then reappears. She'll hide behind some peice of object or simply turn her head away and then bring it back. It is coupled with a high and low pitched sound she makes to differentiate the "peek"and the "boo", if that makes sense.

Anyway, here are a few other personality traits of little miss A @ 1 years old:

• active (always on the move)
• curious (always touching and grabbing new things)
• social (makes eye contact, seems to draw energy from presence of people around her)
• happy (always smiling)
• mischievous (throws folded laundry on the floor)
• silly (hold objects in her teeth like a cigar)

Things she can do:

• clap her hands on command (we simply say "clap hands"in English or Vietnamese)
• play chase
• say "mama"or "dada"
• her walking is improving day by day since 11 months. She can walk around for longer periods of time before losing balance.
