18 months

My baby had her 18 month check up on the 27th (yes a little late, but it's hard to get into the doctor and her first apt was cancelled by them) She did such a good job, she walked into the office all by herself and did everything they asked. She cried when she got her shots, but who doesn't. She's 27lbs 10oz and 34 inches tall, 90% for weight and 95% for height, no suprise there. I just cannot believe what a big girl she is, I know I say this all the time but my baby is growing way to fast. After the shots I bought her a little slide for the yard, it's currently taking up residence in our living room since it's been pretty rainy all week. She loves it and she's so proud of herself when she goes down it. She likes to take her baby that Stacy got her for her birthday down it with her too. Growing up means growing into more and more naughtyness. She pulls the drawer out under the stove and stands on it, thus reaching and pulling out the knife drawer where all sharp kitchen utensils live, little butt. So we're gonna be childproofing that and other things that used to be out of her reach. She went out into our yard today, which is overrun with dandelions and picked alot of pretty flowers for mommy. She just loves to run and play outside. She's getting very good saying please and thank you, which comes out 'pwease' and 'cank u' so cute. She learns new words everyday and one of her favorite things to do is put money in her piggy bank. Her bank used to be an actual pig but she shattered that on on the kitchen floor so my mom rigged her a new one out of a coffee can and duct tape. Safer until we reach an age where we don't love throwing every thing we can get our hands on. Yesterday my sister gave her some money for it and she put it all in her bank and then goes running out to my dad in the kitchen with both hands out saying 'money, money'. It was hilarious. My sister is 4cm dialated and due on Sunday, so hopefully that will be happening soon, I can't wait and I know she can't either. Hope it gets sunny out soon, back to the laundry. Heading over to Jess's house later to look up some stuff we've heard about Obama's plan to forgive student loans for single mothers. If this is true it could make a huge difference in my life. Anyone heard anything about it? I just spent half an hour uploading new pictures and now I can't find them on the computer! Damnit, hopefully I can add them later.
