18 months old!
Who needs toys, I will play with anything I can find! I am running a little behind on this post, but wanted to share it anyway... I cannot believe that my child is 1 1/2 old, but it is true! How time flies!!! I have decided to tell you some things about Abby in celebration of this milestone.
Busy bee - this pretty much describes her activity level. She is constantly in motion whether it is pushing her baby around the house in her stroller, pulling things out of my cabinets, chasing the dogs around the house, climbing up on everything still and just in general busy!
Animal Sounds - her latest "party trick" is performing all of her animal sounds. She can make sounds for cow, horse, monkey, rooster, sheep, snake, cat, dog, & duck.
Night Night - this girl loves her bed and loves to sleep. She often goes to her room, tries to climb into her bed and will squawk and squaller until you put her in there ... all the while shouting "night night."
Outside - Abby loves to be outside. She will go to the door and say "out" and bang on the door. She is her father's child for sure! We try to go outside a couple times a day during the week, but when daddy is home on the weekends they spend LOTS of time out front working in the yard, digging, running and getting dirty.
Talking - Abby has really been talking quite a bit since she was 12 months old, but in the last month her vocabulary has really increased. I have noticed in the last couple of weeks that she is starting to put two words together. Although I will say that it is very obvious that she wants to say so much more than she is capable of ... she tends to get a little frustrated at times.
House work - well we are hoping we have ourselves a little worker bee. She loves to help me put clothes in the dryer, vacuum, she will help pick up her mess from the day and she likes to use her spoons and bowls to do a little "cooking" in the kitchen. We are looking forward to some child labor! :)
Snack - a.k.a. Nack, this is one of her favorite words right now. She loves to go to the pantry and open and close the door yelling at me "nack, nack." She likes goldfish, peanut butter crackers, animal cookies, raisins and various other crunchy things.
Books - this girl is a reader already. She loves to read! Abby often will sit on her own and read books, but she also will bring books to anyone she can convince to read to her. Right now she is big into interactive books - anything that has flaps or things to feel are a big win!
