not a baby anymore.
My baby is now 18 months old. (as of a couple of days ago.) I can't believe how much she's grown especially in the last few months. She says so many words, at least 20 plus. She figure out so many things (like how to get out of her highchair without help, that one gave mommy a turn.) She just amazes me. Seeing this little person grow and become smarter and start to think and figure things out is the most amazing experience. And my mom was right, parenting is way better as they get older.
She helped me vacuum today, I used the big vacuum and gave her the little vacuum. I had to show her to push it around, she was inclined to just hold it in one place but she did good once she got the hang of it. Very haphazard,but that's to be expected.
A couple of days ago I met Jason and her at Mcdonald's for dinner after work, I expected her to be all excited to see me as she often is when I get off work. Instead she just looks at me, points to the chair next to her and States "Seat!" in a command voice. What a funny little personality I'm raising.
She's so good in general about cleaning, whenever i clean she has to grab a little piece of paper or a rag and "clean" to. She's also good about picking things up.
I made our first homeschooling purchase today, these two books. hopefully they will be useful. My husband went to a montessorri preschool for a little while when he was young and was very impressed by their methods.

She picked up her first daycare illness the other day, some sort of puking things, managed to get puke truely everywhere in her crib. I gave her some old frozen breastmilk and kefir last night. She seemed fine already anyway but it can't hurt.
right now she's carrying the little vaccuum around going "vrwoomy" hald crying because she doesn't know how to turn it on herself. Mommy forgot to put it back out of her reach.
She loves to color(kI? kI?), love to push any buttons that make noise. Pretend to talk on any cell phone really or anything that looks like a cell phone. Love to put them up to other people ears while demanding they say "HI!" "HI!" She loves going outside (side? side?) but doesn't last long in the cold. She loves broccoli and popcorn and pudding and yogurt. doesn't love pork or turkey. Eats like someone who weighs 120 pounnds should most days. Don't know where she's putting it though, probably into brain development. And she's going ot be a big sister.
