15 Months

I'm now officially 15 months! Each week I learn to do and say more and more.

I went to My Gym for the 1st time this week and had a blast...climbing on things, playing in the ball pit, going up and down the slide, and lots of swinging (They even had a dolphin swing which I kept pointing to and saying "Fish".).

Grandma & Grandpa Behrens are here for the month of February and take me out shopping and on lots of wagon walks. Some of the flowers are starting to bloom here and I love touching them gently and saying 'flower' (or something very close!).

I'm also trying lots of new foods now and am not nearly as picky as I used to be. Some of the latest new foods I tasted and liked were greens, cabbage, bok-choy, salmon, and tofu. I even ate a whole bowl of peas the other night. Of course I still love any kind of meat and nothing is better than bananas and applesauce!

My latest favorite toy is a rubber duck with a sailor hat; I found him in the upstairs bathroom. Mom cleaned him off and I haven't put him down yet. He goes to school and to bed with me. You'll see him in the video below.

Gotta run...I see some stuffed animals that I need to push around on my little car.

Testing out a new headband...part of my Valentine care package from Paw-Paw and Grand-Lin.

Ms. V stopped by for a visit last week.

How fabulous do I look in my fancy pants!?

I'm on the Go-Go-Go!

I turned 14-months a few weeks ago. I'm such a big girl now. My walking improves daily. It's been a little over a week and I'm everywhere! I'm also talking quite a bit. I love making animal sounds (sheep, dog, monkey, elephant and cat) and I'm saying a few words Ball, Book (Note from Mom: they sound very similar), Fish, Up, No, Yes, Da-Da and Ma-Ma, Milk, etc. Here are a few recent pictures and a video.

Dad, let me feed myself yogurt. I'm still learning how to use the spoon. :)

How big is Maddie? So Big! I like to lift my arms so Mom can tickle me.
