Sleepy baby .....NOISY neighbours

It seems that we may have some new neighbours that live above us now, and boy they are by no means quite. For the past 3 nights in a row, they start hammering, bangining everything, moving things from place to place and just "dropping" it, keeping there TV up so loud that I can mute mine and hear every single word clear as day(with our windows shut)and they decide to start this all at 7:30 at night. Well I understand that it's 7:30 and that's fine - even though I've just gotten my non-sleepy baby into a routine that starts then, so the noises really don't help. Although she sleeps through it, myself or Michael do not find it very pleasant. I'm also not 100% sure if this is new neighbours or the old one - because she very often did laundry at 12:30 at night, so it may just be her, but picked up a few new nightime tricks.
ALSO, it was very ammusing sitting here watching TV and listening to what sounded like gunshots. So here's me crawling on the ground so no one can see my shadow standing in the window (yes, insert laugh here) I slowly peek though the curtains (at this point I look like a complete goof) and see there throwing what looks like carpet from their patio (keep in mind she's on the 3rd floor, it's 10:10pm, and the bottom floor suite has a built in glass patio, so it could have fallen on that, which probably would have given a stroke to the wonderful 85-90 year old couple that live there)
Either way, it's time for me to write a nice letter to the woman/new people above us, because if you know me, I can't handle 2-3 different sounds at once, let alone having the set of Jumanji living above me. (And good for me, I'm married to a man on Strata, lol - so maybe he can do something)
Anyways, now that's off my chest I can write some new information on my baby girl. She's a toddler (really, an official toddler, I can't call her my baby anymore, how crazy is that.) Her hair is growing in faster than ever(well fast for us) and somewhat has the craziest hair I've ever seen! She now has 16 teeth, she took a 7 month break and came back in full force getting 8 in 1 month! It's so cute to see little molars and fangs in there. She's talking up a storm; although quite shy/quiet around people she does not see often. Every morning after we wake up Daddy for work, she will have breakfast and a bottle and go back into the bedroom to sit by the bathroom door yelling, DA DA (quite sternly)poking her hands under the door or her head saying "Hi DA DA" with a big smile on her face; athough she can't see him, and he'll talk to her through the door until he's done, and when he comes out she tilts her head and goes dada :)
She LOOOVES so you think you can dance (and was not pleased with last weeks elimination) she will stand at the TV and when the dance scene comes on with the music she jams pretty hard, smashing her head all over the place, it's pretty priceless.
She officially signed "eat" the other day; this is the only word I've tried with her, as she's a very picky eater, and I really wanted her to be able to tell me when she was hungry, and sure enough at the coffee table the other morning, she looked at Michael and myself and did it, we were SOOOO proud!
We've had a few playdates, and some adventures _one of which was today seeing my bestest friend in Vancouver and going to Metrotown and Ikea.
She did SWIMMINGLY, she was so happy for the whole day. We went with Kristy and Sophie. (who had quite the bad cold, and was not a happy camper rightfully so) Oh and about the doing so well; if you know Arianna you know she sleeps well in cars, well she did, until we merged onto the highway, We drove, got to Coquitlam, Sophie woke up, and she started, Sophie then because happy about Abbotsford and then it hit Arianna, OHHHHH....never in my life have I heard her like that in the car, it was pure screaming all the way home from abby. OH MY.....It was coughing, choking,red faced screaming, it was chaotic. But we made it home and she was as happy as a pickle, and didn't goto bed till 7:30.
Well that is it for now!

(Having fun going down the slide)
