Our little angel is 18 months old today!!! We can't believe it, my how the time has flown! Watching her grow only gets more and more fun. Let's see...I know it's been a while since I've posted on here so I'm sure I'll leave a lot out, but lately she waves at everyone (and I mean everyone - people across parking lots), she gives us lots of kisses and hugs, and she is talking up a storm! She gibber jabbers all the time and can say more words. This week she really started saying "frog" and "rain". And she understands most of what we say and can follow simple direction. She is also starting to feed herself!! Oh how that will be nice at dinner time:-) We just got back from the beach and she loved it! She only tried to eat the sand once (a vast improvement from last year). Disciplining is getting challenging because she is testing us more and more. We are staying strong though, lol! I battle her every night to brush her teeth. She will brush them, but I need to get in there to finish the job. But it is getting easier. She loves her Elmo so much! If Sesame street is on she plays while it is on in the background, but as soon as Elmo comes on she bolts to the TV! And I recently bought her some boy Elmo pj's...I felt a little bad putting my little girl in boy pj's, but she loves them!! And they look cute on her:-) What about mom and dad? Well I have been staying home with Kaitlyn for 2 months now. I know; it has flown by! I am even busier than I was when I was working! That probably doesn't make sense, but I have less "me" time. And being at the house more has inspired me to decorate some of those blank walls and organize those messy cabinets. So my "To Do" list has quadrupled;-) I am physically exhausted by the end of the day, but I truly love spending so much time with her and being there for all the cute little things she does. I know she misses her Granny and Grand-daddy though so we try to see them often. Mark travels a lot so it's tough during the week. He was home for two weeks recently so that was nice:-) Here are some of my favorite pics that my Dad, the amazing photographer, took at the beach!
