Maelyn is (over) 14 months old

This is a bit late but I wanted to give a 14 month update on Maelyn because she is growing up so fast! All of a sudden she turned 14 months old and she has started to get words and lots of personality. She will let you know when she is upset or doesn't like something and she can be very stubborn (all mostly when I tell her no). She also started moving! We had been doing physical therapy for almost 4 months and progress was very slow. Then we got home from our trip to NY and she started cruising and crawling and then pulling her self up. It's like it all clicked and within about a week! So she's now fully mobile, without walking independently, but I'm sure that will come soon. It is a little scary though because she can be very adventurous and has no fear. Her new thing is trying to climb up the stairs just so she can try to throw herself back down, and she gets very upset when I don't let her. She also has gotten more hair and is starting to loose some of those luscious cheeks. She loves to laugh (especially with her brothers), dance and play peek. She is starting to do more intentional play, using blocks and cars. Her favorite thing to play right now is kitchen set. Her other favorite thing lately is our new kitty! Yes, PS, the day after we got home from vacation we adopted a kitten. The kids absolutely love her and she is very good with them. 

"Maelyn. No, no..."

Does this look familiar mom and dad?
