Eliza is at such a fun age right now! She is 16 1/2 months and her personality is starting to emerge. She has been repeating many of the things we say to her. Her favorites are: up, Gus, please (peez), hot, baby (babe), stinky, and mom. She follows me around most days and says "mom" while trying to hand me something or give me a kiss. She is very personable and waves to everyone we see.
She still loves to scream when she doesn't get her way and has recently added the precious talent of biting her sister when she is annoyed!
But I do just love that fact that she is becoming more of a little person rather than a baby. I often get caught off guard when I look at her and realize that she is old enough to understand things. Like throwing things in the trash when we tell her and going to her chair at the table when she is hungry. It seems like with the 2nd child you don't anticipate the new things and then when they happen, it is more amazing.
I am really trying to enjoy each stage and I know I will miss the toys everywhere, the spills, the dirty laundry, the never-ending clean up of pooh and snot, and reading Curious Buddies 20x a day. I can say this today because we have had a pretty good day!
I was reading Winnie the Pooh to Adrianna today and Eliza walked over, looked at the book and said "Pooh". I have no idea how she knew that but it was so funny!
Well, I'm off to change a stinky poohy diaper. Enjoy it right?!!:)
