Libby is 19 Months!

I'm 19 months today. (Technically tomorrow.) This is a recent picture of me. I'm eating spaghetti and meatballs, one of my favorites! I love to eat! I also have to do everything by myself now. I use a fork and spoon. And as you can see I can get a little messy when I eat.

I love climbing up and down the stairs (by myself!). I climb in and out of the car (by myself). Mom says I make her nervous, but I've got really good balance so she shouldn't worry. I'm also a great helper. I love to clean up and I help Mom get our shoes on in the morning. My words are getting clearer and I'm adding new ones everyday! My favorite thing to do (besides eat!) is dance. Put on any music and I'll boogie down! I'll have to get Mom to record me dancing so you can see me too.

And I'm telling Mom when I go to the bathroom. Yup, maybe I'll be going on the potty soon! :)

(Note from editor: I know it's wishful thinking, but it certainly would be nice!)

Trip to Addison's House

We went to Atlanta over the weekend for my good friend Addie's 4th birthday. I was so excited. It was a Royal Tea Party. We wore pretty dresses, sat at a fancy table and ate tea party food. And, Princess Belle made an appearance! We had so much fun...I didn't want to leave!

See my pretty crown? I made it!

Libby played tea party with Daddy! She thought she was a big girl like me!

Don't you love my butterfly?! Belle painted it. I asked for a hummingbird, but Belle didn't know how to paint that.

See how fancy the table was? I sat down and put my napkin on my lap. I have very good manners!

Here I am with Belle. She was really nice.

Group picture of all of us. Addie is the one with the crown. She was very happy!!

Golf!

Daddy is SO ready for me to be a golfer! He signed me up for golf camp last week. It was pretty fun. I even took my clubs with me (Yes, he's already bought me golf clubs!). Here are some pics of my week of golf fun!

Check out my stance!

Putt-Putt here I come!

And I like to run!

Let's Try a Tri!

Today we went to the Y for a Preschool Triathlon! I was pretty excited! First they wrote my number on my arms and my age on the back of my leg. When it was my turn, they called my name and I jumped in the pool with my Daddy. We swam all the way to the other side. Then we climbed out and went to my bike. We put on my tennis shoes (my very sassy purple Pumas!) and Daddy cheered for me and helped me (just a little when I got tired!) as we went around the track. Then I ran over to Mommy and she and I ran down the field and back. I got a medal! I was pretty wiped out, but I had so much fun. I am a RACER! On the way home, I reminded Mom and Dad that they promised me a doughnut last night. So we stopped by Dunkin Doughnuts on the way home and I got a jelly one!

Libby was too little to race, but she ate lots of bananas and said "Go!". Oh and Mom's camera ran out of batteries after I got my number, but Daddy got some on his phone. We'll try to add more later!

Happy 4th of July!

We had a busy weekend celebrating the 4th! Lots of play time with Mom, Dad and Libby! We went to the pool a couple of times (I'm getting to be such a swimmer! I jump in and swim to Dad and I can go under water and get our dive toys!.) We went to a festival today where I got to go on a bouncy slide and ride a pony. And my favorite...we made ice cream cones tonight after dinner. Yummy!

A little art time while my Libby naps! I love painting with my watercolors!

Life is good!

Mmmm....Libby is messy after our ice cream cones!

I've gotten quite good at eating an ice cream cone. Nothing goes to waste!

Libby likes her ice cream, but is wasting an awful lot!

Finger Paints!

We were out of school this week. I was feeling a little under the weather so we got to hang around the house a lot. I guess Mom got tired of playing "Princess" dolls and busted out the FINGER PAINTS!! Wow! We had fun...and got really messy too!

I love painting my belly!

More paint please!

MINE!
