18 Months!

My little Brookey is 18 months old, where did my baby go??? She has grown up so much this past month. Seeing her walk everywhere she goes is so weird to us but she is all over the place now. Life is busy with a toddler but she continues to be a joy to everyone. We all love our little fuzz ball so much. Everyone wants to be around her and everyone misses her when she is away. We all still love to go into her room in the morning and all cover her with hugs and kisses when she wakes up. She still smiles every time she sees us and claps and gets excited when we say her name and are looking for her. 

It is so much fun to see her little personality come out lately. She loves to wear clothes. She brings us clothes to put on her all day long and is often wearing multiple layers. She also loves to take everyone else their clothes. When she finds anyone's clothes or shoes on the ground she takes them to you. She also puts things away very well. She will go into her room and put her clothes, shoes books, etc. away. She likes to help the Cs put their stuff away too. But don't leave piles of neatly folded laundry out on the floor, oh no, she will pick that all up and put it back in the basket before you know it.

Brooke finally has enough hair for a little pony tail - yay! She loves to read books. As soon as I say, "do you want to go read books?" She runs into her room sits in my lap and gets so happy. She is telling us what snakes and lions and ducks say and loves to show you where her head and belly and hands are. She is saying a handful of words, down, done, water. 

Brooke communicates so well. She loves to tell me things that are happening. Like if I walk into her room and she has peed out of her diaper she immediately starts grabbing her diaper and saying poop and then pointing to her bed and "talking" telling me all about what happened. She is a good eater but really loves beans, bananas, strawberries, rice, and green beans. 

Everyone loves Brooke. The girls in young women want to take her to young womens with them, people want to hold her. She is still just as sweet and snuggly as ever and we cannot get enough of her. She is still my rock star sleeper and that has been so nice. :)
