16 Months Old

I learned so many new things this month. I can now drink from a straw, spin in circles, speak Chinese (okay maybe not, but that's what it sounds like), make animal sounds (cow, dog, cat, monkey, owl, and thanks to Pappie, elk), put myself to sleep (just need a quick hug and kiss, no more stories or songs for me), and sign more, hungry, and down. I'm almost running, but it's more of a speed walk right now.

My favorite things to do this month were read my books, go for walks (especially when the crunchy leaves fell), and sit on chairs, pillows, boxes, or anything I can find actually.

Here's pictures from this month:

And here's a video of me spinning and showing my "where'd it go" pose (I usually do it better, but you get the idea):


I also learned how to take pictures this month. I can hold the camera and push the button all by myself, but I'm not very good at aiming yet. Here's some of my pictures where mommy and daddy helped me aim (I'll save you from the ones I aimed - the carpet isn't that interesting):

Happy Halloween

This Halloween was my first year of real trick-or-treating (otherwise known as collecting candy for mommy). We went with Krystiana and both of us did really good walking up to houses and grabbing candy from the bowl. There were a couple houses that scared me, the crazy witch and a skeleton girl, but overall it was fun. I was the cutest bumble bee ever!

My First Haircut

This month I got my hair cut for the first time. I still don't have a lot of hair, but it was getting crazy and in my eyes. It looks much prettier now. The haircut was pretty cool. I got to wear a super cute zebra thingy and eat a sucker while the nice lady cut my hair. I even got glitter and a bow!
