Little Lady


Here she is trying on Ryan's high school bball warm up shirt. She was trying to put it on herself a while ago and she would wear it like a necklace.

a funny wink face she does sometimes.

another funny face we see often.


Our little lady is 18 months old already! She's growing up so fast, it seems like each day she has something new to entertain us with. At her doctor's appointment she was 34.5 inches tall, and 27.1 lbs. which puts her in the 97th percentile for heigth (tall girl!! I was expecting tall, but not that tall) and about 75th for weight. She loves to make us laugh and does so often with her dancing (spin move and a funny hop) and her silly faces, and she has such a sweet personality. I love to hear her "mommy" all through out the day, her little voice makes me so happy. She is getting much better at talking and it's getting easier all the time to understand what she is saying whether it's bye-bye, or different animal sounds. She likes trying new words and often mimics the words we tell her and is good at recognizing animals in books or pictures or outside whether she hears their sound or sees the picture. She loves to snuggle and I am okay with that because it won't last too long. She's already getting where she doesn't like to be touched and moves your hand away from her. I think she's figured out which clothes she likes to wear more than others because she'll bring me certain articles of clothing to wear even after she's dressed and start to take off what she doesn't want to wear so I can put on what she wants. She loves to read books by herself and have others read them to her. It seems like lately she is almost always smiling and laughing at the simplest things and it makes me so happy, I hope she is always so cheerful! We love you little lady and we're so happy you are in our family!
