Holy cow!!! You are officially 1 1/2 years old. I have heard the saying time flies, but I literally blink and you are almost two years old...The joy you have brought into my life with your presence is immeasurable. I cherish every waking and sleeping minute I have with you. I LOVE napping with you everyday and feeling your warm body snuggled up on me and drool on my chest. I could cry when I hear you giggle because it makes my heart melt. I often times have a hard time saying no to you, so much so that I have created a little mini monster. You have become quite an independent lady. You will grab my hand and direct me to where you want to be. You throw your food on the ground when you are finished eating. Your attention span is short and only open for interesting things. You no longer will sit in a high chair and let mom and dad enjoy a meal. You throw yourself to the ground and cry hysterically when you don't get what you want. You have started to bite when you are very upset. You love to challenge your mother. There are no consequences to your actions. Mommy is a terrible rule enforcer or you are a great rebel!!! You started speech therapy and they didn't seem too concerned you weren't talking yet. We went three times and said the hell with it till you are two years old. Words you say now are hi, dad, daddy, more, eat, up, down, & out. You love being outdoors and hanging with daddy after he gets off work. You will sit in the garage with him for hours and play with gadgets. You love riding patches the dog like she is a horse. You adore being around tanner and Kendall. You love slides and ball pits. You are the shining star at mommy and me classes, always the loudest and happiest. You love Disneyland and cry when rides are over. You absolutely hate hate hate being in a stroller, you want to walk everywhere. I don't even take a stroller to Disneyland because it's easier to back carry you or put you in a ring sling. You love being around mommy and cry when I'm out of sight. You have become a pretty picky eater, liking Mac n cheese, cereal, yogurt, eggs, fruit snacks, dried fruit, watermelon, occasional steak, in n out fries (I know, bad mommy) and corn.
You are clueless you will be a big sister in 3 weeks. Today we met your friend mason at the park and you helped wipe his butt with baby wipes, I hope that's a sign you won't torture your brother but rather be a big helper to mommy. We got your first haircut last week, you did awesome thanks to an iPhone and snacks!!! You are starting to get your canine teeth and soon will have a full set of teeth. You went to the dentist for the first time this month. It was all but eventful, you however did enjoy the balloon at the end of the visit. You hate diaper changes. You hate getting into your car seat and long car rides. You love watching television, your favorite show lately is doc mcstuffins; another sign to mommy you are growing up because last month it was Mickey Mouse clubhouse.. Now you can't be bothered with that show. You like to take showers and play with the shower head. You hate getting dried off from a bath or shower. You love being read to. You hate bedtime. You light up my whole world!
