Seventeen Months

And another month has passed... But this time, I'm actually posting on the 26th! Yay! This girl is crazy and this month she has really had a language explosion! I took her to the toy store the other day and we walked past the bikes. She pointed and said "bike." Then we walked through one of the boy aisles and she spotted the "Toy Story" toys. She pointed and said "Buzz," even though Woody is really her favorite. She carries him around all the time. Then we walked down another aisle and this is where I was really suprised - she said "princess!" What? How do you even know that word? Later that day, she said "toilet." She loves to hand you something and say "here ya go" as though it's all one word. She can say "thank you" and "you're welcome." She follows the cats around saying "meow." And yesterday she said "where'd Jack go?" Usually she calls Jack "da da." This was this first time I've heard her say "Jack." It's very different then what she calls Jeremey, you can totally tell the difference, but they're both dada. She loves to climb. One morning, all before 8am, she climed on the little table... Then on the kitchen table... Not once, but twice and this time it was for some contraband... The other day, she climbed up on the kitchen table and got some Sharpies. Since she loves to color, she took them straight to the floor. Thank God we don't have carpet right there and thank God for 409. It took it right off, what could have been a disaster was quickly cleaned up. Yesterday, we had an exciting park day. There were horses! Just random people with thier own horses. They were so nice that they let the kids pet them AND sit on them. Grace loved it! Loved it so much that she screamed when she had to get down. Jack was really excited too! What a treat! Happy 17 months baby girl!
