Spring has Sprung

It's been a long, cold, dreary and cootie filled winter around here. Spring means trips to the zoo, parks, picnics, bike rides and lots of outside play time. Thank you, God, for this season of refreshment!

This was my stroller when I was little. 

15 months

Things she says:  mommy, daddy, Isaiah, cappy, eat, bottle, baby, uh oh, ow, shoe, done done, yes, Sh, no no no no no, light

Things she can do:  starting to use a fork, drink from a straw, up and down stairs, climb a ladder, go down slide, points to: toes, feet, belly button, ears, nose, head, brush hair and teeth, plays independently for short periods of time, runs like crazy to keep up with her brother, and laughs a lot!

*sleeps through the night (12-13 hours)

*trying to cut to one nap (2-3 hours) but sometimes we have to work in a quick second one

*still a tiny little thing weighing in at only 21.5 lbs

*loves to eat broccoli, cauliflower, corn on the cob, chicken, all fruit, avocado with balsamic vinegar, string cheese, applesauce, turkey sandwiches and animal crackers

*drinking soy milk (and yup we are still taking this from a bottle) probably selfish on my part because she will actually sit with me and let me get some cuddles while she drinks it 

*she now recognizes the doctor office when we get there and clings tight to me. The second the doc or nurse walk in she cries. 

*and most importantly she loves this big brother with every piece of her heart. He can make her erupt in laughter like no one else.
