Month 18

My sweet Zoey Jane is now 18 months old. Holy Moly when did this happen! Sometimes it seems like she was just born, other times it seems like she has always been here.

Today was her 18m checkup and these are her stats:

Weight: 27lbs 5oz (94%)

Height: 33 1/4in (92%)

Head circum: 47 1/4cm (75%)

She grew 1 whole inch and gained 3lbs in 3 months!

 Next visit is at 24months!

 She is talking up a storm! Her new words here of late are, all done, all gone, welcome, duck, boo, down, BAAAAAA (Brad because she won't call him dad), Hemi, and a lot of stuff she will just randomly repeat after she hears someone else say it.

She can identify nose, ears, mouth, and belly button.

 She is in size 24m/2T in shirts, but mostly 18m in pants. Size 5 diapers.

She goes to bed for the night around 7:30pm and sleep until 7:15am...I'll take that!

Naps however, uh, I don't know what's going on there. She went from sleeping 3.5 hours to exactly one hour. When I say exactly an hour...I mean to the minute! Oh well, I guess I'm just glad you still take a nap!

 Some of Zoey's favorite things are all rubber ducks, Duck and Goose books, Sophia the First, MUSIC of any kind, purses and wallets, bracelets and necklaces. She loves to "blow it up" and give high fives.

She is very strong willed, stubborn, and temper mental...but I am glad she has a personality, even if it is difficult at times. She can also be the sweetest little girl. If she is in the kissing mood, be prepared! You will get a ton of them. 

 Happy 18months my sweet Zoey Jane! 

Mommy and Daddy love you oh so much!
