18 months

Lets see...our Bella Rose is 18 months old....and blowing mom and dad away of just how much she is like a toddler and less a baby! She is 36 lb, and dr said 36" but I don't think she is quite that yet.  She wants to do mostly everything on her own now...she loves copying everything you do and is chatty Cathy to everyone and everyTHING! She loves stacking things and loves to open doors. She is curious GEORGE and wants to be in everyone's business when we are out.  She loves Peg + Cat and Dr Seuss on PBS.  Oh and she loves to say "backpack"- ha must have been Dora on the cruise!  She is quickly developing her own spunky personality and has a LOT of attitude.....and is saying the word 'no' quite a bit!  These days we are into the library, story time at a local shoppe, sidewalk chalk (she is so funny how she has to hold the pieces of chalk, one in each hand, every time we go for a walk...even if she doesn't use it), cinnamon spice play do, baking and dishes with mommy, DANCING!, learning the trike, saying new words and just all around pure cuteness!

I've posted a couple new videos to our YouTube page in case you haven't subscribed to it yet! There is a funny one on there of the most recent word I'm teaching Bella, "sure"....but it is sounding a little less like sure and more like something else :)

Finally! The weather we wait for all year long here in FL has arrived (unfortunately along with the thousands of snow birds as well)...but we can finally pull out jeans/sweatshirts/and boots!
