In a few days Baby turns 18 months old! In fact, she is no longer a
baby! She walks, she talks, why, she is practically an adult!
We moved into our new house when she was just barely 7 months old, and between moving in, furnishing our home, finding local activities for our girls, the time has simply flown by!
S3 on
being 18 months:
-Has 16 teeth, and can brush and floss them herself
-Has mastered removing and putting on her socks
-Feeds herself three meals per day, plus three snacks
-Thinks she can play the piano
-Chooses her own clothes, or at least that's what Grandma says when we find Baby donning mismatched outfits
-Has started occasionally sleeping through the night, but has difficulty anytime she catches a new cold, which lately seems far too frequent
-Loves reading books, and we often find her sitting in a couch, quietly "reading"
-Still loves to play ball, and will often instigate a game of catch
-Speaks quite well, and her repertoire now includes: outside, over there, ball, dog, Mama, Papa, Grandma, Bad, Elmo, iPad, Hi, Bye, Pistachio, Chocolate, Water, Hot, Up, Down, No, and best of all, her sister's name (or an approximation thereof).
Unfortunately, last week, she also prematurely embarked into the "terrible twos". Perhaps we will have a reprieve by the time she turns two...
