16 Months!!

Hi everybody, I am 16 months old today!!  I had a great day today, first mommy made me my favorite breakfast, scrambled eggs with cheese :)  Then we went to a play date at church where I got to play with my good friends Calli and Laurel.  Then for dinner my great Aunt Mim, great Uncle Don, cousin Susan, Mr. Tim, and Aubrey joined us.  It was nice to see them and I had tons of fun playing with Aubrey!

Over the weekend I got to see Santa!!  I didn't cry, so mommy and daddy were excited about that.  Tomorrow we leave for NY for Thanksgiving.  It will be fun to play with my cousins up there again.

At 16 months:
 - I can count to 5!!!!!
 - I still repeat just about anything
 - I say phrases like "where did she go?", "what's that?", "all done", "help me please", "get down Abby", "come on Abby"
 - I am pretty good at telling my dog what to do
 - I still love to take baths
 - I am working on drinking out of a regular cup
 - I sign "bike", "potty", and "may I be excused?"  along with many others
 - I wear 12-18month clothes and size 4 1/2 shoe
 - My favorite toys right now are my baby dolls and Mrs. Potato head
 - A few weeks ago I started getting out of my crib, so now I sleep in a tent :)
 - I have my 9th tooth coming in right now, and one of my molars is already in

me and Santa!

Family Birthdays

November is a big month for Birthdays in my family! Cousin Adella, Mom-mom, Uncle Chad, and Grandma all have birthdays in November!  We had a fun time celebrating with them :)

I also got to spend a few days alone with Grandpa and Grandma and cousin Lauren while mommy and daddy went out of town for a wedding.  Just before mommy and daddy left though I decided it was time I made my way out of my crib on my own.  I tried it twice and both times it did not feel so good but daddy ordered a crib tent so I wouldn't try again.  Grandma and Grandpa had lots of fun putting it together while mommy & daddy were away.  Other than that we had lots of fun playing, going to the beach, and on walks.

We are going up to NY for Thanksgiving this year so I can't wait to see everyone again!
