18 months

Addi has hit another milestone. She is 18 months which is a big deal in our house...nursery time at church!! She had her doctors appointment yesterday and is 19 lbs. 6 oz. and is 30 1/2 inches. She is really starting to talk but still signs a lot too. She still loves Baby Signing Time and is really not interested in watching anything else. She is a major climber and can get onto anything! She loves being outside and going to the park. She is really starting to have her opinions and I can already see that she is going to be stubborn. (I wonder where she got that?) She knows that we pray when we eat and will fold her arms and put her finger over her mouth to shush me. She sometimes even wants to pray multiple times during a meal and I have to tell her we are all done with praying. She really likes puzzles, her baby and still loves reading books. She always wants to check and see if things are hot. She is obsessed with saying "bye" and can sense when I am almost done talking on the phone and starts yelling bye-bye.


She was not a fan of the Easter bunny but I had to torture her so we could get a picture.
Easter morning
I had a trail of eggs from her bedroom to her basket and she picked up about 3 and then figured out she could go straight to the basket.
She would not cooperate for a picture in her Easter dress.
This was her first egg hunt with our playgroup from church. She picked up quick on what to do but then just wanted to eat the candy.


Addi and her friend McKenna. We have been lucky to have friends right next door this past year. Addi will sure miss Ella and McKenna!
This actually shows them quite well. Addi is always teasing and bugging McKenna and McKenna likes to tell Addi "No-No".
While I was gone on my girls trip, Darrin took Addi to see some dinosaur tracks.
She loves helping with the dishwasher. Anytime I open it, she drags her stool over and hands me the dishes from the top rack.
We went to a new children's museum and Addi and McKenna loved shopping!
Addi is a serious fish and loves laying on her back in the tub.
This was awhile back at the Austin Zoo with her friend Jaxson.

There have been multiple times when I have checked on her and she has managed to grab her baby and pull her through her crib until it gets to the head. It's pretty funny.

I got so tired of Addi always emptying the shelf of dvds so I moved them and she decided it is a good spot for her.
