Flu Flu go away

We are all super sick over here. Poor Cora had a fever all day yesterday. We are all on the mend today but I am telling you, nothing is worse than a sick baby. It just breaks my heart.

On a lighter note Cora finally said Mom. Not mama or mommy, just mom. And really it was more like this "Maaaahhhm MahhhHHMMMM!" I wasn't paying attention apparently. I am guessing I will be hearing that a lot. I know I should be mostly annoyed but I love it. I love hearing her talk, everyone says I will get sick of it but that isn't even close to happening.

Politeness

Cora has magically learned some manners. Her new favorite thing is saying "Thank you". She likes passing anything (i.e. a toy, food, clothes) back and forth, each person taking turns saying "Thank you". She also uses the signs "please" and "more". Both Kris and I think we have heard her say them but it isn't consistent. We are happy that if she is going to be such a little miss bossy britches she is at least using nice words.

Yesterday she went to her first softball game. I was little nervous since cheering sometimes startles her and makes her cry but at the game she was clapping and saying "Yeah" when everyone else was. It was really fun and pretty cute.
