Lola Rae- 18 Months

Lola Rae- 18 Months

My sweet sweet, green eyed girl, I’m already starting to bawl just THINKING about writing this post.  The fact that my little Pnut is already a year and a half old just blows my mind. So much has changed since your first birthday, I don’t even know where to start.  You are turning into a little girl right before my eyes. You now weigh a whole 19 lbs 14 oz and are 31 inches tall.

You  make me so proud every day. I wake up to the sound of you mumbling “ ma ma ma ma ma ma” over the monitor, over and over again, until I walk in there and you greet me with your sleepy, sweet smile.  Sometimes, if I don’t get there fast enough it’s “ma ma ma ma ma” “da da?”  haha you make me and your father smile about a million times a day.  You bring so much joy to so many peoples lives already, with your sweet little waves and your sweet little southern sounding “hi” and “bye” s.  I never want to forget those.

You are a great eater, even though you hate foods that most kids love, pb&j, grilled cheese, chicken nuggets, etc. forget it, you don't want it.  You want the good stuff, eggs, sausage, grilled chicken, you love mommy's green smoothies, you HAVE to start your day with a "nana" (banana) Of course you love any kind of fruit, who doesn't.  You still have never had anything to drink, except milk or water, I know, you are deprived. You have only had sweets a couple times in your life, man you are really going to think, I'm nuts when you read this one day. You eat great with you silverware, probably because you really don't like getting dirty, unless you can dip your fist in yogurt, for some reason that doesn't seem to bother you at all. ;)

You still love your "ninny" and your frog, which you have not gone a night without since you were born.

You love to dance. Mommy is going to put you in ballet ASAP. You love to walk on your tippy toes and spin and spin and spin. You get so dizzy and fall all over the place, which of course scares us, but you look so happy, you silly silly little ballerina of mine.

You are getting so smart. Your vocabulary is expanding more and more every day.  You are starting to repeat everything we say and using your signs less and less.

You know mommy has a baby in her belly, but you have no idea that it's about to come out and stay with us forever. I know you are going to be a great big sister, you are so sweet and just love babies and other children.

Some of your favorite things right now-

Baby “JO JO”
You are starting to watch “toons” Wheels on the Bus, Dinasour Train, The Color Crew and the movie Frozen are your favorites.
Your “Chicks”
Dancing like a ballerina
singing nursery rhymes with ma ma
Playing horsey with daddy



Lola Rae, watching you turn into this amazing, fun loving, always on the go, funny face, happy, clumsy, incredibly sweet little girl has been the biggest blessing of my life. You entertain me, you amaze me and you make me the happiest mommy on the Earth.  Every day with you is an adventure, that you for giving me the best days of my life so far.


Love,
Your Ma ma
