My dear sweet baby girl,
I can not believe you are 18 months already! The time has flown by and yet you still some how feel older than 18 months. Maybe that is because you are SO independent. Here are some things you are up to these days!
-Love to put your jewelry on every morning at your vanity.
-You are so smart….You understand EVERYTHING we say.
-You add new words to your vocabulary everyday! Some that you say are help me, please, thank you, Ali, Poppi, Nana, outside, Maw-Maw, “Tayten” for Caden, doggie, cat, balloon. Lots more!
-You weigh 28lbs…which is 89%.
-You are 34 inches tall….which is off the charts (literally) for your age.
-You wear size 5 diapers.
-You wear size 2T clothing, some like target brand at 3T!
-You wear a size 6.5 – 7 shoe.
-You love to read books….well in your own way anyways. 
(please excuse my mom at the end! haha!)
-You like to help me empty the dishwasher, I always go to the silverware drawer and you have put all sorts of stuff in there!
-You tell us when your diaper is dirty, you come to us and say “poo poo” while you point to your diaper
- You like to go “mmmmmm” after you have eaten something. It is adorable.
-You can identify most of your body parts.
-You love to laugh and DANCE! Dancing is your favorite!!
-You love to be outside and love being in water so much! You are such a water baby! Bath time is your favorite part of the day!
-You love fruits! You will eat an entire carton of raspberries or blue berries in the store while I am grocery shopping and you have eaten 5 clementine oranges in one sitting!
-You love everything and everybody. 
Nothing scares you. You wave to random people all the time. You make new friends so easily.
-You are so adventurous. Your most recent trip to the zoo included feeding goats with no hesitation and chasing around peacocks until they got out of your reach!
You seem to lead Caden. Now that you and him play well together, he always does what you do. There are some instances when you copy him as the younger sister. But if you know what you want to do you do it and more than likely he copies you!! Again, so independent. Yet, definitely a daddy’s girl. Whenever dad comes home you run over to him and scream, with joy, at the top of your lungs until he picks you up. It is quite adorable and I can’t get enough of it.
We love you so much princess. You are growing up, but will always be our baby girl!
Love,
Mom
