Busy Life

Life is so busy right now. I'm going to bed past midnight which is not like me AT ALL! I love my sleep and get grumpy when I don't get enough. But there is so much for me to get done. And it's hard to get much done with Brooklyn awake because I'd rather play/read with her than do my own homework. Even though it's been hectic in my life lately, I've still gotten to enjoy my beautiful little girl. I even remembered to grab the camera to capture some of her fun moments...

She kept trying to put this on her head all night. I put it on her and she actually kept it on! She liking things on her head a little more now that she's getting older.

Thank goodness mommy's phone has an otter box. Otherwise it would not be alive.

"Brusha teef" is a very used phrase around our house. She LOVES to brush her teeth. And looking at herself in the mirror while doing it just makes her more happy. :)

Luke and I started painting our house (more pictures to come) this past weekend. I turned around to paint for a little while and I look back and B has climbed up 2 steps on the ladder. She is such a little monkey...and fearless! I had to take a quick pic before I made her get off. She loved the ladder!

Sunglasses ("gwasses") are another thing she LOVES now too! She loves looking at herself in the mirror while she wears them. She just thinks she's so cute! (But who can argue? She is the cutest child alive!)

Mommy's little diva!

I can't believe she is already 18 months old! She's growing too fast! Here are a few facts about her now that she's 18 months old...

• 18 month clothes are getting too small...24 month and 2T fit really well and will be what we buy for her spring/summer clothes
• She is starting to put together sentences...it's really funny
• Tinker Bell is still her favorite
• She is also into babys and baby dolls
• She climbs everything!!
• She LOVES being outside!
• She will sit still and read several books with me at night! :) (This makes me so happy!)
• She loves people and isn't very shy
• She's a very caring child...she'll go check on anyone that's crying.
• She knows places (we can pull up to my mom's house and she'll say "my mimi" then as soon as I get her out of the car she runs to the door and knocks)
• temper tantrums happen whenever I tell her "no"

There's so much more but I can't list everything. Now that she's tucked into bed..I think I will go to bed too.
