where's that papa??

things greta has learned to do in the week while joe is away....
-"dance" to music (hysterical)
-lean forward in the tub and place her face gently underwater

things greta has continued to work on while joe is away.....
-standing alone (without holding on)
-placing her nesting cups one inside the other
-recognizing when someone (mommy) is eating, and thinking this means she needs a bite too

things greta may or may not have done for the first time while joe is away.....
-say "bye bye". i swear, we were playing in her room and she looked right at me, waved her hand, and said "bye bye".
-sign "more" she has been clapping a TON while eating, and i am starting to wonder if she is possibly trying to do the sign for "more". (the sign for more looks like if you were to make a bird's beak with each hand and then bring them together). maybe? possibly?

things greta has definitely done while joe is away.....
-go swimming
-go for walks
-visit with stacy, scott, and gavin
-go to fountain square and cruise around downtown
-get her pictures taken
-have a spend-the-night at grandma and grandpa hansbauers
-hang out with grandma joan at our house
-go out to lunch....and breakfast
-MISS HER PAPA!!!!!

joe gets home on sunday morning from new orleans and we can't wait!
