18 months...Oh my!

 This little girl turned 18 months!!! I can't believe it!! If it weren't for the fact that I have one on the way I think I would be getting VERY baby hungry. It seems as if over night she just grew up! She is quite the little person, and I am so humbled to be her mother!
 
At 18 months she LOVES to:
Sing and Dance (she can shake it like no other)
She talks and talks. We were at the park the other day and I was talking to a mom who is a speech therapist and she was just blown away at Claire's vocabulary
She LOVES babies. Her favorite books are the books with babies in them.
She LOVES to talk to my belly and say, "Hello, baby, I love you!" or "Hello, Oliver!" Melts my heart
She has to have a job to do. If I am cleaning, I won't get anything done until I give her a chore, then she will be content until she feels like it is finished and she needs a new chore
She LOVES parks and especially loves slides. She has learned how to go down slides all by herself. I love it because I can just sit there and watch her. She gets worn out and I get a rest! Life couldn't be better!
Another thing she LOVES to do is try to sit in things. She tries to sit inside of little buses or cars and gets so mad that she can't fit.
 The other day she had a great idea. She emptied out her block container and sat in that. If you can't tell from the picture she was incredibly proud of herself!
 
 
She was also really excited when she realized that she could fit ontop of the motorcycle. This is a decoration I bought a long time of go in honor of Ryan's love for motorcycles. Claire loves them too. When she seems them on the road she always points at the and says. "Daddy!"
 
Claire is not my little baby any more. She is growing up every day. I know that she is going to be such an incredible big sister! She was born needing responsibility and has a ton of love in her heart. I am so excited to see her grow!
