At 18 months Annie suddenly seems like a "big girl". The Gent and I love to watch her learn new things; it is so much fun to watch her grow! She has learned some new words--her current favorites are "flower," "all done," and "yes." She shakes her head for no. A lot. But she hasn't verbalized it yet. She is still in love with her books and is learning to share her toys with JJ. Sometimes she gets mad at him for not playing with them correctly. :) She is taking an interest in her dolls and loves to play with letters and numbers. She has some magnetic ones and foam ones for the bathtub. She can identify A-G when she's in the mood to do it. Annie has had a busy month traveling and is happy to be back home for a while! Annie loves fruit of all kinds (except melon). Mango is her flavor of the month. She is still nursing 3x a day (we successfully cut one this month) and taking two naps. Annie is ready to give up her morning nap but JJ is not (he sleeps a good two hours in the morning and again in the afternoon), so I'm keeping them on the same schedule for now. She usually plays in her crib for about an hour in the morning and then takes a short nap, with a longer one in the afternoon. Annie is wearing mostly 12-18 month clothing (she's 18 months old and it finally fits) and size 3 diapers.
