Fiona - 18 Months Old

Our sweet Fiona is half way between 1 year and 2 years as of yesterday. She amazes us and makes us smile every day and we are so blessed to have yet again, another beaming, happy child. Here are some of the things she can do at 18 months old:

-climb everything
-if she can't climb it, she will find something like a chair that will enable her
-she finally consistently sleeps through the night
-she knows right from wrong and is learning to hug and say sorry when she makes a mistake
-puts her shoes on by herself
-dresses in her own clothes and everyone elses by herself
-uses a booster seat and not a high chair
-doesn't take a bottle anymore
-proficiently uses a spoon with very little mess
-sings Happy Birthday

Fiona loves water and runs to her room to find a swimmer at the slightest hint that might go hot tubbing. She runs to her Daddy and squeals enthusiastically when he comes home from work. Fiona has 16 teeth, is 33 1/2 inches tall and is somewhere around 26 lbs. Her siblings love her but she generally drives them nuts as she breaks everything the build...like legos. She loves to chew everything still,even though she is not teethin. She is the perfect finale to our wonderful family, bright, and happy (most of the time) and tough. So, in honour of her 18 months with us, we took photos of her with Preston, her bear, and with her siblings and their bears.

I love the picture of the kids with their bears! Grace looks like she is trying to do a silly pose. If you haven't already, you might have to play around with serious and silly faces.
