15 months

Lizzie-bear you are 15 months old and the perfect spunky lovebug that our family needed. 

Size 3 diapers, about 22 lbs, wears mainly 12 month clothes but can still fit in a few 9 month old or 6-12 month clothes. 

You give random run by hugs if I’m sitting on the floor or you dive head first into my lap for a snuggle.(LOVE this!)

 

You love looking at books with pictures of our friends and family.

Chairs are objects for you in stand in and stress me out.  You discovered standing on Taylor’s stools and countertops are no longer safe from your reach.

 

You went from no teeth at 11 months old to 10 teeth at 15 months old and you love to test those teeth out on everything from apples to cookies to mommy’s fingers.  You can eat and eat and eat and generally try a variety of food.

You love to scream and love to especially do it while I’m trying to cook dinner.

You went from crawling to running and haven’t stopped.  You started walking just days after your first birthday and are the funniest little thing when on a mission.  You remind me of the little penguins that get running so fast that their wings kinda fall behind them.  You run with your arms down at your side and kinda behind you.  Funny girl but really cute at the same time!

Words you say that maybe only I understand: Dada, Momma(you’ve said it but I rarely hear it), Tay-er, na-na(pacifier), nigh-nigh(night-night, naptime/bedtime), uice(juice/water), cccc(cookie), gooo(goldfish), nana(banana), Ya-Ya, Pawpaw, Nana, am-e(Lambie), adie(Sadie dog), essa(Tessa cat), bow, cheese, boos(your pink boots)

You use the sign for milk, but say uice for all other drinks besides milk.

You are fearless and strong willed.  It might challenge me as a mother right now, but I hope you attempt everything you want to and stand up for what you believe in(just later in life).

 

You have started requesting bows in your hair, decide you are done wearing it for a little bit, and then request it again.  This makes me so happy to see a sweet clip or bow in the little bit of hair you have.  No matter what you wear in the front, there is a small curl that tends to appear in the back of your hair.  Not sure where this comes from(the only wave in my hair came after hormones from two pregnancies) but it is the sweetest little curl.

You love purses or bags of any kind.  No bag is too big for you to try and carry on your arm.  You are also starting to show signs of wanting to dress up like Taylor and squeal with glee once you are dressed up. 

 

You can destroy a room like a F5 tornado, but give yourself away when you squeal or giggle.  I should know better than to think you are playing quietly rather than quietly destroying.

We love you so much lil’ bit!!!
