Princess at 17 months


Princess is 17 1/2 months old now. Where does the time go? I can't believe it! I want her to stay a baby forever, but it is also so exciting to see her grow and learn new things every day.

Some of her recent antics:
-Princess loves cds. She likes getting them out of DVD cases or cd cases and then stacking them and trying to put them back into the cases. She thinks it's hilarious. Daddy does not.
-Princess has this new thing where she opens her mouth really wide and then wants me to copy her. It is hilarious! If I can get it on camera I will be sure to post it.
-Princess is an expert stair climber. Up and down! We tell her to "scoot scoot" and she slides down the stairs on her tummy.
-She is very good at following her routine. She knows all the bed time stuff. It is very cute
-She is an excellent helper (most of the time ha) she knows where the diapers go to get thrown away, she knows how to turn off the entertainment center equipment, and she helps mommy put laundry in the dryer.
-Princess loves looking at pictures on the computer
-She LOVES reading stories and LOVE LOOOVVVEESSSS Milk!
-She is very stubborn, independent, and kind of a drama queen
-She loves going outside and throws a major tantrum when we have to go inside
-She loves bath-time. Mostly because she gets to splash and play with fun toys! However she hates getting washed in the bath!
-She refuses to cooperate for pictures! It is so frustrating!
-Princess Loves playing with other kids. She likes giving them hugs and sharing toys and trying to make new friends. It is SOOOO cute! I just wish the other kids would respond better....mostly they get freaked out or run away......I think she is just to advanced for her age, and the other little ones don't get it yet
-Sweet girl loves her pink teddy bear and a very specific pink blanket.
-She is a big copy cat. She will copy everything that I do. Singing, making sounds, eating(or at least pretending to eat) and she even plays "follow the leader" with actions and everything!

-The biggest change so far for our little girl is that she is 100% TODDLER! No more baby! She throws glorious tantrums and insists on doing it her way. *Sigh* It's a good thing she is SO cute!
We love her so much. She is the sunshine in our lives, and I am grateful everyday that Heavenly Father saw fit to allow me to be her mother.
