She literally loves to climb. When the attic ladder isn't down, she climbs on chairs, sofas, tables, beds, step stools, and anything else she can. This new skill is impressive, but more so is her ever expanding vocabulary -- she can now say apple, oatmeal, grape, milk, CoCo, Bebop, BoBo, CC, Nona, Big Daddy and two word phrases like Mama wa-wa (for Mama's water).
Her back molar popped through this week, and it seems she is getting a new tooth a day (other molars coming in, ouch).
She also loves to try to give kisses with her tongue fully out - and loves it even more when we tell her not to do that. She also recently started taking naps with books in her crib -
and took her first ride in the big part of the grocery cart.
At some point she got a bad cold and did not want to have milk before bed - so we stopped bottles, and now she drinks just a little bit of milk from a sippy cup before bed.
She is still attached to her pacis and likes to hold one in each hand (on her finger) while one is in her mouth. That's a habit that will be hard to break.
She loves to draw (especially when her sister is doing it), and we think she is a southpaw (she changes the crayon from her right to her left, and she holds her utensils with her left hand, too).
She likes to build things with legos - and only likes the square ones and to stack them really high (and show it to us with a huge smile)
'Look what I made!'
Our big girl ... likes to eat at the kids table - eating her cereal for breakfast like a big girl!!
She recently went down the big slide at Chick-Fil-A with her sister ... here's a picture of her climbing up it (see a trend?) ...
It's been a fun 19 month ride, and we're looking forward to her turning 2 and the many adventures she'll take us on ...
