I am one and a half years old!

Here is a breakdown of my many accomplishments over the last 3 months:

Weight: About 26 pounds. I still wear size 18month pants, 2T shirts and size 4 shoes.  I have my next doctor visit on Monday so I will give you official height and weights then.

Skills:
Physically: Gross motor:  I can run!  This usually leads to me falling down after tripping on my own feet, but I just get up and try again.   I can get on and off my horse and then rock back and forth.  I love to climb on playgrounds and can go down slides by myself. 
Fine Motor: I love to play with pens and markers to try and draw.


Verbally:  Mama, Dadda, Ball, More are the only words mommy can understand, although I will clearly point to things and say a sentence they just look at me confused.  My favorite new signs are bath and airplane.

Likes:  I like to help put away things or clean my table after a meal (usually a very messy table after I have eaten).  I love being outside and walking the dogs.  I like to ask for more food every chance I get.  I like to dance.  I like putting things where they belong and yet I like to destroy things also.   I love baths.  I love watching “super why” with breakfast.  I like to say night-night to my dogs and daddy every night.

Dislikes:  I dislike being carried when mommy and daddy don’t think I am walking good enough.   I don’t like going to baby school in the morning unless they have already started breakfast then its fine for you to leave me there.  

What is to come:  The big excitement for the next three months is Christmas with my cousins!  I get to fly on an airplane and play with Cole and Luke for 2 weeks in Ohio.  We have all sorts of fun things planned while I am there like the zoo and science centers.  Also mommy is going to try and make me a brother or sister while I am there, not sure what that means but I guess it is ok.

Here is a slideshow of my last six months put to a song mommy blatantly stole from Finn and Mirabelle's momma's video a few days ago.
