Kendall is 18 Months!

     Kendall is 18 months old!  1 1/2 years old!  I say this every post but I am loving this stage!  She is learning new things everyday!
    

      Her 18 month appointment is scheduled in a couple of weeks, so I'll have to update her stats then.

    It seems like she is learning new words everyday.  She says: Momma, Daddy, doggie, hat, bite, night-night, yeah, yay, baby, ball, bye-bye, uh-oh, Mimi, Mawmaw, Barney, shoe, and hey-ya.

    She is super attached to sucking her 2 fingers and to her blankie.  

    She is wearing size 24 months and 2T's, size 4 diapers (size 5 night time diapers), and size 4 shoes.  

   
   At last count she had 16 teeth.  

     Her favorite toys are her babies, bracelets, playhouse, purses, shoes, and ride on toys.

   She is beginning to be able to play with her shape sorter.  She also likes to clap while Momma sings "If You're Happy and You Know It". 

   She can point to her nose, hair, ears, and mouth.  Eyes are a little iffy.

    We've also started letting her use a spoon some.  It's a pretty messy deal!  But she sure likes to try.

    She likes to "help" by throwing things away (sometimes even things that aren't trash), holding the dust pan (which is as helpful as it sounds), handing dishes out of the dishwasher, closing toliet lids, and picking up things we need.

 

    She has several curls on the back of her head.

    Most days she'll just take 1 nap usually an hour or two long.  She wakes up in the mornings between 7 or 8.  And goes to bed between 7:30 and 8 at night. 

     She is a great walker now.  It looks funny to see her crawl.

She is so fun and full of life.  Our day revolves around her, and we wouldn't have it any other way!
 

    
Thanks to Aunt Punky for the photo shoot, while I laid on the couch!
