Happy Eighteen Months!

Olivia - you are EIGHTEEN months!
You are a year and a half old!! I can't believe it!

What are you up to?

You weigh around 25 lbs and are 32 inches tall.
You wear size 5 diapers, size 2T or 24 months clothes, and size 6 shoes.
You still just have 7 teeth.

You are taking a good 2-3 hour nap every day..

You sleep from from 10.30 pm to 8 am every night but still get up once, which is OK. You are not on breast feeding anymore.

You have recently really started more play acting. You love to drink with a cup. You love to push your dolls in the doll stroller.

You LOVE to give kisses to us.. you call everyone "Baa" (well i don't know what  that mean) when you want something, if we don't listen you you.. you scream loud Baa baaa baaaaaaaaa. ha!

You LOVE to streak! Every night after you bath you will take off running while I'm trying to dry you off and just run through the room naked. You LOVE it. You just laugh and laugh and run from me. ha!

Your vocabulary is growing! You say "Dadda", Momma, Ba,  No, you make a sound of animals specially you like Dog sound.

You have learned to communicate pretty well without words.

You LOVE laptops.Your Daddy had one old Laptop you try to get to several times a day. You will turn it on and you want me to insert cd and you just dance. You watch cd's like letters to learn you dance on that.. "every letter makes a sound A says" You also love my cd player by my bed. Anytime you hear music on the TV - you will stop what you are doing and dance.

You love to point out your body parts (eyes, nose, mouth, ears) and to find them on us.

You like to clean up your toys! yeay! You also like to use wet ones to clean your face, your toys, your dolls or your books. You like to clean your high chair after you eat. It cracks me up to watch you "cleaning".

You still want me to hold you all the time. And even though you are HEAVY - I secretly love it. I know there are probably only a few months left where you will want to be held a lot. I love when you snuggle close to my chest and tuck your arms underneath you and rest your head in my neck. It's my favorite thing in the world!

You want to feed yourself now all the time with a spoon or fork. It's messy - but you are getting better and better. You are CLEARLY right handed!

I can't believe we are halfway to two! Where has the time gone? You are my precious girl and I love watching you grow!

Love always,

Mommy
