Talking

Mommy helped me put together a video of some of the words I can say. I've been a little camera shy so we were only able to capture a few words.

My Latest Obsession

I love seeing videos and pictures of my friend Kaila on her blog. Each day I take mommy and daddy to the computer about 10 times and ask to see her. If they don't help, I just climb up on the chair myself. I know how to scroll the page with the mouse, but I haven't quite figured out how to type yet. I also throw a mini-tantrum everytime mommy makes me stop watching. Apparently she thinks I need to try a few other activities during the day, whatever.

18 and 19 Months

I know, I know, I'm so far behind. I'll try to get better about posting. I'm 19 months now (almost 20 actually) and spend most days running from mommy, learning new words, feeding myself, and seeing what I can get away with.

I occasionally get in trouble, but so far mommy and daddy haven't figured out a discipline that works well. Most of their attempts just make me giggle and I flash them my sly little grin. Lately mommy tries a "timeout", but I don't really get it. IF I sit where I'm supposed to for the required time, I get back up and do exactly what I was doing before; then repeat. Good thing most of the time I'm a sweet little angel.

I'm getting really good at talking and can say lots of words - mama, dada, GG, Pa, Nana (Krystiana), Kai, baby, kitty, duck, bird, moon, hat, ball, truck, boat, train, hand, eye, knee, teeth (my fave activity - brushing my teeth), hot, owie, help, chee (cheese), nunny (bunny crackers), juice, nana (banana), bowl, pu (cup), Twilight (my fave book), Bob (the Builder, my favorite show), t (tv), tan (crayon), pull (my request at the sight of any wagon, ride-on toy, etc.), dirt, and probably some more that I can't think of right now.

Here's some pics from the last couple months. There's not many because mommy's too busy chasing me to grab the camera.

Merry Christmas

It's a little late, but Merry Christmas! We had a wonderful Christmas with family. For Christmas eve we went to GG and Pa's and Santa came to visit. On Christmas day, we found our present and stocking stuffers from Santa, then went to Gammy and Pappie's (after almost getting stuck in our neighborhood), and finally to Aunt Stacie's and Uncle Steve's for our Richardson Christmas. I got lots of wonderful presents from everyone including my favorite - my very own vacuum.

Here's pictures of all the festivities:

Snow Days

This is old news now, but we had a lot of snow in December. I got all bundled up and went out sledding with mommy and daddy. I loved the snow even though it was cold. Mommy had to force me to go inside.

Here's a picture of me in my cute snow gear:


And here's a sledding video. It may not look like I'm enjoying it, but I loved it and wanted to ride over and over again. I also rode down the hill with mommy and daddy, but that was a bit too windy and cold for me.
