All By Herself

Now that Carla Ann is a year old it just seems like there has been a significant change in what she can do.  I just keep thinking to myself she is less and less a baby and getting to be a kid.  She gets around walking no problem and now that she has mastered that she is all about improving her verbal skills.  She babbles like crazy and points out all kinds of things that she wants to learn about.  You can just see the little wheels turning in her head while she tries to figure things out.  And she usually likes to do things all by herself.
