Chloe Grace: A Year and A Quarter

You weigh 25 pounds.

You are wearing 18 month clothes.

You are in size 4 diapers and wear a size 5 at night.

You have 6 teeth.

You love music! You start to dance as soon as you hear music. Even though we have no idea what you're singing, you often sing as you play and it's adorable!

You are learning to count and will cheer for us when we count. You also love the ABCs.

You know where your eyes, nose, mouth, and belly button are.
You like to find our belly button too.
You like to point (stab) at other people's eyes and say "Eye!"

If you see a dog in person, on TV, or in a book, you start saying woof woof.
You call chickens bock bocks, but haven't consistently mastered answering, "What does the chicken say?"

You "talk" all the time and I don't ever want to forget how cute it is.

You've gotten a little shy and will run and bury your head in our legs if someone you don't know speaks to you.

You come looking for me if daddy gets you up in the morning. You'll let me hug you then you're off to play or demand bite bites.

You LOVE to be outside and will often get your shoes (even if you already have shoes on), bring them to us, and say, "Out!" You can climb the steps and slide down the big slide on the playground and you love to swing! Surprisingly, you like the chickens at Jessica's house and often say, "bock bock" and walk towards them waving. You also LOVE to splash in puddles and laugh when daddy splashes with you.

Truett is slowly but surely warming up to you. If he sees you coming, he'll usually let you touch him now. If you sneak up on him, he still jumps up and runs away. He really likes sharing food with you.

You've starting making a surprised face and saying, "Oh look!"

You refuse to smile for a camera.

You sleep great! You easily sleep 7pm-7am pretty much everyday. And, you take one nap a day around noon for at least 2 hours. It's very rare that you let me rock you to sleep, but every once in a while you give in and fall asleep on my chest.

You still love to eat, but have gotten pickier about what you eat. You still love fruit and anything sweet, but are much pickier about meat. You're starting to drink more milk, but still aren't the biggest fan. You can use a fork and will eat off of a plate without playing with the plate, which makes clean up so much easier.

You are learning to color.


You love to run around the grocery store and help push the buggy.

You think it's fun to make funny faces and do them the most for Allyson.

 

You are on the go from the time you wake up until you fall asleep again.

Life with you is so fun, little one.
