Tateym at 18 months!


I am a little late in getting this posted. Big surprise!
At 18 months Tateym's words include: Mama, Mommy, Dada, Daddy, Maggie (sounds like Gaggie), Nana, PaPa, Papi, puppy, juice, book, up, out, off, yuck, duck, kitty, piggy piggy, tickle tickle, clock, tree, shoe, truck, baby, bye bye, uh huh (yes sound), un uh (no sound), outside, who's that/what's that, eyes, ice, uh oh, eat, cookie, snack.....

Animal sounds: her special doggie noise, moo, meow (sounds like ow- more like a real kitty sound actually), Bac bac (chicken sounds), niegh or eeeigh (house sounds), ooo ooo ooo (monkey sounds- I have no idea how to spell that out), quack quack like a duck but does the hand signal more often, tweet tweet (bird).

When she gets hurt she goes to every one in the room to kiss her boo boo & then it's magically all better!

She is climbing even more lately! Now trying to get on top of the coffee table, entertainment center, our big bed, into big chairs, jump on the couch, and now she like to try to balance on things! She will stand on her Little Peoples house, in windowsills, etc. just to give Mommy a heart attack.

Has lots of hair! She can wear 1 bow on top of her head or 2 piggy tails in the back. It's slightly past her shoulders with a few curls.

Now more than ever waves, kisses, & throws kisses when going bye bye. When I was packing our things this morning she said, "Gaggie..." knowing that I'm about to go find Maggie and put her in the kitchen. Then Tateym waves to Maggie and throws her a kiss every time we leave the house or go outside.

Loves Wyatt! He escaped the other day so when someone brought him back to the house he got to stay in the living room for a few minutes. T hugged him, laid her head on his back, laid down beside him when he laid down, shook his hand. Loves loves loves all dogs.. well most animals. I can't wait to take her to the zoo soon.

Says "burr" and shakes when the wind blows.

Hears birds when even I don't notice the bird noises at first and says, "tweet tweet!!"

Looks for her shadow on the ground when we're outside. She loves to wave to her shadow & see it wave back. This is a big thing right now! The most fun is when Mommy, daddy, & Tk are on a walk and all of their shadows wave back.

Is infatuated with Mommy's makeup. She mainly likes to put on lipstick or chapstick and then put the lid on and off.. on and off.. Twice now she's gotten into the dark eye shadows and given herself a beautiful makeover.

When you ask her where her freckles are she points out the 2 on her ankles.

Still enjoys reading books! We read TONS daily. There's a few that I have memorized. The funny thing is I think she does too! I'll turn to a page and she recognizes it. We were reading If You Give a Pig a Pancake yesterday. There's one page the pig starts dancing and as soon as I turned to that page she started dancing. There's several books she does this with.
She is starting to flip through and look at the pages herself occasionally.

LOVES playing outside. Walking down the street to hear the dogs, riding in the wagon or stroller, driving her 4 wheeler, swinging, climbing on her slides/playset, blowing bubbles, sidewalk chalk, etc.

Announces when things are hot! Food, candles, lightbulbs, fire.
Smells flowers, her hands after washing them, but sometimes blows out of her nose instead.

Can unlock Daddy's Ipod by sliding over the lock.

Slowly trying new foods: pizza, corndogs- which she loved and eats now- yay one new meal I can feed her. Also eating more and more chicken- Chic-fil-A & Panda Express rice and mandarin chicken. Also ate pigs-in-a-blanket this morning for breakfast.
