"Ball!"

Jo's new best friend is that great big ball in the sky. Yes, the moon. These days you've been able to see the moon in the sky during the day and every time we go outside Jo instantly starts looking for the "ball." She'll find it and will say "Hiii ball" and then when we get in the car she says "bye ball!" Of course when we get back out of the car she'll say hi to it again and then when we go in the store or something it's time to say bye again. Now when we're inside she just stands at the window and calls for the "ball." She's also discovered airplanes and says "plane" almost perfectly. She's also discovered "birdies" and will do the same "hi" and "bye" routine with the planes and birds. It's just the cutest thing!

Jo seems to be all grown up. Up until 2 days ago Jo would wake up early for her sippy, which she'd have in our bed, and then sleep for a little longer with us in our bed until we got up for the day. Well I have noticed that her waking up for her sippy has been gradually getting later and later but she'd still go back to sleep for awhile afterward. Well... yesterday she didn't wake up, not even for her sippy, until NINE! Then today it was 9:10! Up until yesterday, the latest she'd wake up was 7:30 but mostly it was around 6:30 and then go back to sleep till around 8:30. I hope she keeps this up, it's pretty nice!

Yesterday I had to change Jo's sheets and so I took everything out of her crib. It was like a free for all for her in there. Check out this hilarious video...
