18 months is a big deal! I'm such a big girl now-well, kind of! Physically, I'm still a peanut falling off the chart of all the average measurements but in every other way, mommy says I'm a big girl doing so many great things! I still haven't reached the 20 lb mark so the doctor told mommy and daddy to feed me all sorts of stuff that adults should stay away from. I guess I will be getting more of my favorite McDonald's hamburgers! I also get to begin trying real milk mixed with my special formula. Mommy is scared but excited since this could change alot of food options for me! We will see how it goes this weekend! Developmentally, I'm right on target ...I can answer questions, I say words, can make choices, follow simple directions and understand basic conversation. Mommy says that I pick up so much more than she could have ever imagined!
My favorite thing to do at the moment is to play pretend with my dolls. I copy everything that mommy does with Jaden. I even have daddy swaddle my baby dolls! I also love to play chase and climb on everything. I've taken a few tumbles off the couch but am back on my feet in no time. If I get a "boo boo", I show everyone saying and pointing "boo boo". I have also learned how to go down stairs. I have been able to climb up stairs for a long time but someone had always carried me back down. Now that Jaden is around, mommy's hands are usually full so they finally let me try to go down on my own. They watched me closely though since I often get distracted!
I have lots of changes in my life right now. First my brother entered my life about a month ago. Then I moved up to the toddler 2 room at daycare. Now we are trying various foods that I haven't been able to have my entire life until now. Mommy says that I'm doing great and am a really good sport. She says that I have also become more cuddly and sensitive. I like to sit on laps and look at my books!Mommy says that I have changed so much in the past 18 months and she can't wait to see what I have in store for her in the future!
