18 Months Old Today!

Isabella is 18 months old.  She is a master climber and scales everything she can.  The other day she got into her high chair on her own, she climbs onto the couches and climbs into the window behind the couch.  So far she hasn't figured out how to climb out of bed and we hope she doesn't!  When Isabella got into her chair on her own we asked Aidan how she got in there and he said, "with her A-mazing muscles!"  He's always so genuinely proud of his sister!

She is an amazing little eater!  She eats more than Aidan does most meals.  She loves meat and veggies, especially corn.  She is not really fond of sweets though and will take a bite out of a cookie but never finishes one.  She also doesn't like fruits at this time.  She's always interested because Aidan easts lots of fruits, especially oranges and strawberries.  She has only ever eaten a bite of strawberry one time.  Mostly she just touches it to her tongue and then spits it back out.

Isabella is not talking at this time.  She is starting to babble a little bit and has a couple of words and a couple of sounds.  She still spends most of her day in silence although laughing and squealing in joy are sounds she makes often.  She does say:  "Mama" although more often "Ma", very rarely "Dada" "Oof oof", "Hi", "Bye", "Cha Cha" for Thomas or Chuggington, "Ish" for fish, and "Shz" for shoes, "Uh oh", "Uh" while she's thinking, and "wow" every time she sees Christmas lights!


Aidan quote of the day:  "Mom-mom, that's the Vegetable of Lights Zoo!"
(Aidan saw a commercial for the Festival of Lights at the zoo!  lol)
