First things first..... some Mr. Monkey shots:
Nothing beats staying up past my bedtime to get a bath in, some foam letters and a balloon (with elmo on it, of course!)
I learned this week that if I look at her cross eyed when taking pictures, she laughs every time:)
Happy 18 month birthday baby girl! I love you!
Tonight we had a fun time celebrating Makenna's friend Lucy's 1st birthday! She had SO much fun chasing Lucy's big sister Molly around all night. Aren't these kiddos cute? Lucy is so adorably chubby - makes me miss Makenna's rolls:)
Mmmmm cupcakes
So, Kenna girl, what are you up to this month?
Your 18 month checkup with your new doctor (again - if you are counting this will be her 5th doctor!! Everyone keeps moving away on us!) is next week. We'll get your official measurements then. I'm pretty sure you are probably about the same weight as your 15 month checkup. You have slimmed down quite a bit and the past few weeks you have gotten taller, too.
-You are in size 18-24 month clothes and some 2T's.
-You have started getting a bit bashful this month. You cling a little tighter to mommy when a stranger gets too close. Once you warm up, you love blowing people kisses though. Muah!
-You say Dadd-E and Momm-E soooo sweetly. You ask for Dadd-E every day when we pull in the driveway. Daddy says you do the same thing for Mommy when he is in the car with you.
-You are ADDICTED to Elmo. We keep feeding the addiction, so no real surprise here. Ha!
-You LOVE your cousins and your Grandmas and Grandpas - you had SO much fun at Thanksgiving with everyone.
-You say lots of things these days. You like to say "here you go" or "go" after I give you something and say it to you. You say please all the time. Daddy gets you to say Brewers just about every day. You continue to get excited and point when we drive past Miller Park saying "Bewers" "Bewers"!
-I'm trying to get you off your bottle, but when you get really crabby a bottle settles you down so you still get one on off days.
-You are a great sleeper and I don't think you got up during the night all month.
-You are starting to transition to just one nap. I'm not sure either of us are ready for that quite yet though.
-You love to chase Bugsey around and you think it is so funny when I play fetch with him. You chase after him and try to catch him, but he is too fast.
-You are getting to be very independent. When you get out of the car, you insist on walking into the house and crawling up the steps on your own. No more carrying you....
-You love blowing kisses and I will often hear you in your carseat alone in the backseat blowing yourself kisses in the mirror.
You LOVE watching Elmo on my phone and you are smart enough to realize that it is a touchscreen so you hold it with your little thumbs out, careful not to bump the screen and turn Elmo off.
Happy 18 months Makenna!! We love you SO much! Muah!
