Happy 16 months to this little rascal!!
You amaze me everyday little girl. You are so full of life and none stop! You are on go mode all day long until you are asleep.
You still weigh 18.5 lbs, same as 12 months. You have 10 teeth. Mommy is dreading when you cut the rest. Your blonde hair is growing. You are wearing size 3 diapers, size 3-4 shoes and clothes range 6-18 months depending on the brand.
You're in bed by 7pm every night and you are now waking up anywhere between 6-7 am. Sooo much better than 4-5 am! We moved your naptime to 12 pm which has helped with you snoozing a little later. Your naps last 1.5-2.5 hrs. You nap on the couch with me next to you. There are times you roll on top of me and sleep. I don't mind. I love the snuggles!
The only two words you say are "ball" and "yeah." You understand every word we say though. We'll tell you to do something and you will do it. Your are too smart for your own good.
Not only do you say "ball," you LOVE balls. You are obsessed with them, and rocks. You also love dogs. You point at a dog everytime you see one and they bring the biggest smile on your face. For Halloween this year you are dressing as a dalmatian.
You don't care for riding in a shopping cart for long. You want out and walk yourself. Going shopping can be stressful at times because you want to pull everything off the shelves. I pray this phase will be over soon!
You also don't like sitting in a highchair for long at restaurants. You always try to stand up in your seat. You want out and run around. Going out to eat isn't pleasant. We try to sit outside when we can so you can run around a little. However at home, you like to sit in your chair.
If things aren't going your way, you'll toss whatever is in your hand onto the ground, shake your head "no" and cry. Doesn't happen often, but you do have some of those days. Overall, you are a happy little girl.
You like to run around and scream. So funny! That's when your really happy.
You have been on lots of vacations lately. We went to Asheville the end of September, Smoky Mountains a couple of weeks later and we are going to New Orleans the first of November. The trip to NOLA will be your 2nd time flying, but if you count when you were in my tummy it will be your 6th time. You've turned into a pretty good traveler. You love to explore your new surroundings.
You love giving kisses and hugs. All we have to do is ask and you give them away. Melts my heart! You love to laugh and being tickled. Your laugh is the sweetest sound.
If you hurt your finger, stump your foot or bump your head, you want mommy to kiss it and it makes it all better.
These 16 months have been the sweetest and most exhausting moments of my life. I would not change it for the world! God truly blessed us with the best little girl in the whole entire world!!
