This pregnancy has been quite different from the first. With Gwyneth, I never felt nauseous or really tired. This time around, I feel nauseous all the time and exhausted. Maybe this baby is a boy or maybe it's just true, every pregnancy is different. We will know the answer to that in less than two months!

Gwyneth is 14 Months
I've been a bit slow on the posts lately. There hasn't been much going on here in the Stepp household. Brandon has been busy at work, he just recently took a trip to England for a week, and I have not been a very motivated mommy lately so our daily activities have not been very post-worthy.
Gwyneth turned 14 months old on the 7th and she is definitely transforming from baby to toddler status. She is walking more and more although she still doesn't walk 100% of the time. She is still faster crawling so she tends to crawl if she wants to get somewhere fast. We bought her first pair of tennis shoes this past weekend and she loves them! You ask her about her shoes and she immediately points at her feet. Brandon took them off the other night and she got upset, insisting he put them back on.
At 14 months Gwyneth...
...weighs 24 lbs (BIG girl!).
...stops in her tracks when she hears the Sesame Street theme song.
...loves green beans and mandarin oranges.
...says "hi" and waves when someone new walks into the room.
...blows kisses and gives hugs on command.
...can point at her hair, ears, nose, teeth, and belly on command.
...enjoys story-time before bed, insisting on sitting in mommy or daddy's lap and turning the pages.
...only uses her paci and lovey at nap and bedtime. As soon as we pick her up, she throws them both in the crib.
...insists on calling mommy "dada." However, many things these days are called "dada."
...has 9 teeth, including 2 molars, and 2 more upper teeth coming in any day now.
Here are some recent pictures of our precious Dunebuggy.
She loves playing in her pool and in the water in general. :)
Showing her sassy side.
This is right before she threw the big rock on Daddy's toe! Ouch!
She breaks sticks in half and can't figure out why they won't go back together.
I hope the Stepps will be a bit more adventurous in the upcoming months so we can have some fun things to blog about.

Happy 4th of July
We had a rather uneventful 4th of July here at the Stepp household. Brandon is out of town for work so it was just Dunebuggy and mommy. :) Our 4th consisted of Legos, Sesame Street, playing outside, and McDonald's. It doesn't get much more American than that!
I discovered that Gwyneth absolutely loves McDonald's cheeseburgers. I'm a bit worried I may have created a monster! She was biting off my cheeseburger just like a grown-up. At one point I was the one having a hard time sharing, cause I didn't want her to eat it all and not leave any for me!
She will be 14 months in just a few days. She is turning into such a pretty little lady and I love watching her grow! She is so close to walking and my goal is to have her walking by the time daddy comes home next week (that may be a bit ambitious but we are practicing everyday).
Her favorite things right now are Baylee (the dog - however I don't think the feeling is mutual), climbing/crawling up and down the front patio stairs, being chased around the house and tickled, and green beans (maybe that will help cancel out the new found cheeseburger obsession). Her least favorite things are wearing shoes, having to get out of the bathtub, and macaroni and cheese (crazy - what kid doesn't like that?).
