I Need to Update More Frequently ...

This year is going by so fast! My little one is 15 months old, and getting cuter by the day :) I really love seeing her personality form and watching her grow and learn. I think this phase is more fun than the initial excitement from bringing the baby home from the hospital (well, maybe not quite that much fun, but it's a pretty close runner up). She'll be going to the doctor in a few weeks, so I'll post those stats and measurements when I get them. For now, here's what's going on:

-She still says "ta-ta" and now we're teaching her to say "please". She says "mama", "daddy" (she's no longer saying "dada": we're working from "mama" to "mommy" now), "Tee" (her uncle's name), "maaama" (her name for my mom; it sound like "grandma" but with a "m" sound instead of the "gr" sound) "papa" (for her granddads), "mimi" (this is her paternal grandma; when we visit her and my father in law, she'll get a chance to practice it on them :)).

-She can also say some other cute phrases. She says, "backpack" (one of her first words, thanks to Dora the Explorer) "bubble" (from the Bubble Guppies), "up" (when she wants to be picked up), "want some" (what she'll say if she sees you have some food that she wants; however, she says it as if SHE'S offering YOU food, though she's really just trying to figure out if you're going to give her some LOL!).

-She's naming body parts. She can say "eyes", "ears", "nose", "mouth" and "head", while touching each part, either on herself or on you.

-She shakes her head "no" when she doesn't want to do something. It's funny- no one had to teach her that. She seems to have gotten that one all on her own.

-She's becoming more obedient. Saying "No" or "Don't touch" will stop her dead in her tracks. The funny part is when she's standing there after you stop her- she always looks so guilty LOL!

-She LOVES books. She used to rip up every paper item she got her hands on, but now, she's too busy looking at pictures to tear up books. She also loves it when we read to her. I hope we have a future little bookworm on our hands!

-She's fascinated with glasses. Every pair she sees, she tries to put them on. She always looks so cute when she's wearing them :)

-She loves hopping in the shower with me. It's easier and quicker to get her clean that way, and she loves playing in the water. We both win!


That's all the updates. Look out for another post pretty soon- things are changing all of the time, and I want to keep track of it all! Take care!
