18 Months!





Kate had her 18 month checkup Thursday. Here's her stats....weight 24lbs 12 oz (60th %) Height 33 1/2 inches (85th %) and head 18 inches (30th %)....so basically she has her mom's small head and her dad's height.

Kate is doing great, growing like a weed, learning new things everyday, saying new words everyday...her newest word is "help." I got tired of hearing her whine and point when she couldn't figure out something and wanted me to do it for her so I taught her to say "help" and she's figured out I will be more responsive. She's also recently started saying "home" when we pull in the garage after running errands. I think she's heard me say it over and over...."Kate we're home." So cute! Kate has this children's Bible in her room and she knows it's called her Bible so she when she sees it and wants to read it she points to it and says Bible (sounds like bable). So the other day we were in the living room and my Bible was sitting out on the coffee table and she walked by, saw it, stopped and touched it and said "Bable". How she knew that was my Bible, I have no idea! Mine looks totally different from hers and I never taught her that. It was awesome! Love that sweet girl.

On the not so exciting note, we are so entering the terrible two's way too early. Kate has started this major attitude with us when she doesn't get her way. It's not so fun, but I guess they all go through that....I just hope she gets through it quick because I refuse to have a spoiled brat in this house (ha-that sounds terrible)!
Well, I won't ramble on about what all Kate's been doing. She's a happy fun little girl and she's going to be a big sister soon which is so exciting! I know she'll be great at it and I'm so excited she's going to have a playmate.
