18 Months Still

I had my 18-month check-up this week. I checked out just fine...I told the Dr. some of the words I can say and showed off a little bit. I'm 31 1/2" tall (25%) and weigh 25 lbs 9 oz. I'm getting a few new teeth so I'm a little fussy lately and have lots of drool! But it hasn't slowed me down. I'm very busy. I love to go outside and play in the garden, go on walks and I'm in and out of my pink car.

Mom & Dad wore me out this weekend! On Saturday they took me to the pool. It was a blast. The pool had a kid area with water sprayers and toys to play with. On Sunday we went to Monkey Joe's and I played on the inflatables. I was a little scared at first, but then I warmed up (until that scary purple monkey "Joe" walked up to me and waved...yikes!!).

Now that summer is here I'm sure I'll have lots to update you on, so stay tuned!

Here I am with my favorite toy...Mom's keys. I don't go far without them. :)

I swam this afternoon in my baby pool on the back deck. It's from last summer so it's a bit small, I need to get a new pool so I can swim like a fish!

Here's one of the slides at Monkey Joes. I went down several times all by myself and had a blast!

Riding the inflatable seal.

I love collecting these rocks. I go outside first thing in the morning (I'm still in my pj's!).

18 Months

It has it been a while since I've blogged. Sorry to keep my audience waiting. But I've been SOOOO busy.

First, Mom & Dad went on a week-long trip to Puerto Vallarta Mexico at the end of April (and returned swine-flu free!). Grand-Lin & Paw-Paw came to Charlotte to take care of me. We had a blast. I ate lots of good food (they treated me to ice cream!) and played so much. In fact I was so exhausted when Mom & Dad returned that I threw up all over Mommy. She was a good sport about it though. :)

Then Mom, me and Ms. Katie (who I call Nay-Nay) flew to Dallas for a SNG workshop. We stayed with Grandlin & Paw-Paw. We had a blast again. Grandlin had lots of new toys for me. We went to Paw-Paw's office and all of the nice people there played with me. One day I got to go on some rides at the big mall and take a swim in the pool.

When I got back from Dallas, Grandpa Behrens was here in town. We had so much fun playing ball and going on walks.

Now it's just back to me, Mom and Dad. But that's okay. They're pretty fun too. Dad took me swimming this week and we go on walks around the block where I collect leaves, rocks and sticks. Here are some pictures of me from the past month. I promise to write more soon!

This is my new picnic table. So fun!I love carrying around phones, keys and purses. This is actually Daddy's work journal, but it looked like a purse to me!

Mmmm....nothing like a mouthful of dirt. Can't look away for even a second...I'm quick!
