18 Months

Can you believe it? Our little girl is a year and a half! I could be in a little bit of denial. After all, she's suppose to be my baby, and stay my little baby forever. But she's by no means a little baby anymore, but a full grown toddler!! 

I'm so in love with this age!! She has always been a talker. Sometimes we can't get this girl to shut up. haha! She has started putting 2-4 words together.  Which I LOVE! We can actually have a decent sized conversation together. Sometimes I don't know what she's saying so I ask her to repeat it and she does, but I'm still not sure what she's trying to say, which I feel so bad about cause you know it's VERY important lol ;o) 

Some new words: Pretty, cool, cold, cheese, Papa, potty, poop, caillou(her favorite show), Up(her favorite movie), turtle, bird, flower, fish, go, bubbles, apple, crying and many, many more.

She knows some letters of the alphabet. Thanks to reading books to her, Sesame Street, playing with letters in the bath tub and the leap frog fridge phonics. 

She had her 18 month check up on the 11th, on her 18 month birthday. She's as perfect as perfect can be. She was 32 1/4 inches tall and 24.6 pounds. She had to get some shots, but now she won't have to get any until she's 4, if I remember right. Soon after her appointment she started to get sick. I figured it was because of the shots, but the days went by and she was still feeling yucky. We went back to the doctor and she had a pretty crappy ear infection, runny nose/congested and this horrible cough that would make her throw up just about everyday. We gave her some antibiotics and it all finally went away about week and a half to 2 weeks later. I was VERY happy to have my baby girl back to her normal ole self. The poor girl was miserable! :o(

She has been much more addicted to the TV. But since it's getting nicer outside we have started to cut it back and play outside more. She loves Sesame Street("Moe, Moe" Elmo), Caillou(obsessed!), Sid the Science Kid, Word World, Super Why! and her favorite movie is Up(obsessed!). 

I'm so incredibly excited to see her with her little sister! She's going to be such a great big sister and a great helper for Mommy and Daddy.  

She's my perfect little girl!! I'm so in love with her. Yes, she may frustrate me on occasion, But when I look into those beautiful blues, it melts all that frustration away! She's truly my guardian angel sent to me from God! She has made my life a beautiful place!
