Bella at 18 months

Bella is 18 months so I decided I better document how she is doing.
This time last year she was only six months old! What a difference a year can make.

• Weight- 22 pounds


• She still is on the bottle but drink from a cup very well (no I don't want a phone call from Jontue or Amanda about her still on the bottle!)


• Her vocabulary is getting bigger. Its getting much easier determining what she wants.


• She some how feels it is necessary to take her shoes off every car ride. She is getting quick at it too. She can have her shoes off before I pull out of the driveway sometimes.


• She is starting to get her independence and learned how to say "NO"


• She walks around in my high heels, purse in hand and baby in the other and says, "Bye" as she walks about the house.


• Her shoe size is 5 in toddler! (Sorry baby, you got mamma's big feet)


• Tantrums have started to show up the past month.
  
• She loves our dog lola. She can't wait to give her a bone everyday
  
• She is going to bed very nicely. Still wakes up sometimes but then will go back to bed. But atleast there is not a fight to go to bed anymore.
  
• She is a fish. She LOVES taking a bath. If I let her, she would spend hours in the tub.
• Now that James leaves before she wakes up, she thinks he is playing hide and seek and will look for him all morning.
