Another tooth and Amberisms

Amber sprouted a tooth I never saw coming!  After that bulging second front top one finally came in 2 weeks ago I thought we might be done for a while.  Then out of no where today I saw one on the bottom next to her front two.  It is so tiny and cute!
Some Amberisms I've been wanting to share~  She is so excited when she sees Ken or me come home or back from where ever that she smacks the floor or the chest of whoever is holding her with both hands!  Then the arms keep flapping but in a more 'pick me up' way.
I love it when you make her smile while she's sucking on the paci, too!  She laughs or snorts sometimes and then it falls out, especially when you tickle her.  Andrew is really good at making her laugh.  Practically anything he does works, but especially when he dances or makes silly faces and sounds at her.  Ken enjoys finding ways to make Amber smile and laugh,too.  And when he wrestles with Andrew she comes crawling over ready to rumble (smacking his chest!).
She's pretty good at helping you get her out of the car seat now.  Babies are so impatient they push before you have them out of the straps and then they're all mad and tangled.  She's getting better at waiting for me to unhook her first and then she gets her arms out and leans forward to be picked up.
Oh, and she used the sign for milk today!  Yay!!  She's always trying to mimic what we say with her sounds and sometimes silently with her mouth, but I can never tell if she's really picking up on the signs.  Loving all the funny sounds she says.  She says 'gog' when I say dog and she loves to say 'go go go' or a version of it that sounds like 'tickle tickle' said really fast.  Andrew started out with both of those, too :)  I love all the noises!  When we're riding in the car she'll sometimes just say 'aaaaaaahhh' for a while and we think it's cuz she likes the vibration and the interruptions made by the bumps in the road.  We have clear dadas and mamas and I'm pretty sure she knows how to use them, too.  Lots of dadadas while she's playing and mamamas when she's hungry or mad that I left her in the dust to do something. ;)
She noticeably wanting to eat more, now.  Before it just seemed like she'd eat whatever you gave her.  Now she clearly wants to eat more when you stop short.  She loves her puffs and cheerios and I give her tastes of a lot of things that we eat, like pasta, meatballs, peas, ice cream etc.  She is her father- wants to eat eat eat!  Has no desire to use a sippy cup though.  I'll have to try a different kind soon, in case it's just the one we have that she doesn't like.
Such personality coming out in her now!  Love it!
