18 months!

Our little lady is 1 1/2 years old!  She's smart, pretty, funny, and just the best human being ever.  She knows around 50 words and learns more every day.  She'll just pop out with a new one every once in a while and I'm always amazed!  She loves airplanes (will always point up to them in the sky) and swimming.  She'll practically jump out of your arms and refuses to wear a life jacket or sit in a floaty toy.  She's a dare devil!  She's still a great eater.  She'll eat almost anything I put in front of her.  She still loves cucumbers!  She's also getting much better at using a fork and spoon.  Hattie's better with forks because the food doesn't fall off as easily.  She climbs!  She can now climb up onto chairs and the couch, but she favors our armchair.  If Kurt or I sit in it she'll get upset saying "chair! chair!" and will come over and try to push us out.  It's her chair.  She still loves books, her blankets, riding the rocking horse, and her TV shows.  She now has 5 different shows she likes to watch, so thankfully we're getting a bit more variety than just Jake and the Neverland Pirates.  Hattie loves to dance and is just starting to sing!  It's the most adorable thing in the whole world.  One of her new favorite words is "AMEN!"  She will often shout it and loves prayers because she gets to say amen at the end.  She started nursery at church and it's going very well.  The first week she cried for a while, but she's done great since!  We love our little lady!  She amazes me every day, even the rough ones.   Being a mom is the best!
