Anna turns 15 months

We had Anna's 15 mos checkup this week. She is 20lbs, 9oz (18%), 29 3/4" (29%) and head circumference of 18.5" (80%).  She is growing up so quickly. She loves to talk and has many words in her vocabulary. My favorites are shoes, sushi, muffin and love you. She can point out her hair, eyes, mouth, tongue, ears, nose, belly, toes and fingers. She will stand up in the middle of the room and just balance for a good minute, but still isn't taking any steps. I think it will be any day! She loves to walk holding our hands and pushing her walker. She eats most foods. Loves her desserts, though- brownies, cookies, it doesn't matter. She also loves doughnut holes and muffins for breakfast. She still takes one nap a day at the same time as David. She is starting to enjoy our jogs in the stroller more and more. She loves to read (and also pull out books off the shelf). Her favorites are any touch and feel books, Bubble Bubbles, Elmo Loves You, Frozen story and Quack Quack.  She loves to talk on the phone- whenever I'm talking to someone, she demands the phone to speak.

She loves to play at the park, especially slide. She also loves to ride in the Step 2. She goes to bed at 6:30 and wakes up around 7am. She's such a joy and makes me laugh daily! She still doesn't have many teeth, but it's the funniest, cutest smile I've ever seen! She has a snaggletooth up top, with one of her front two teeth and both her bottom two teeth along with four molars. She's slowly getting a mouth full. She sleeps with Big Bird and Elmo and hugs both of them when she gets into her crib. She's so precious and definitely keeps me busy during the days. Love you, Anna!!

We changed her to the convertible car seat. I moved the infant one in the house and she keeps sitting in it!

 

Such a big girl drinking from a cup!

 This coyote was just walking down the street the other day while David, Anna and I were on a walk with our friends. CRAZY!?! 

 I love how Presley brings our stories and everyday things to life. I've been telling them bedtime stories every night about Princess Presley and the dragon and Prince David saves the day by defeating the dragon... there's a different spin every time. Presley drew this picture the other day of the story. I love her details and how she brings our discussions to life.
