Stop Growing So Fast!


There's my sweet baby girl. I can't believe how fast she is growing and changing. We just had her 18 mos. check up. (Even though she just turned 17 mos.) She is 33 1/4 in. long (95 %), and weighs 24 lbs 10 oz. (50-75 %). She's still allergic to milk, which is a huge bummer because when she does get a hold of milk or yogurt, she just loves it.
I was counting how many words she has and it's well over 30 now and I'm sure there is more that I just haven't thought of.
The other day we were all in the hot tub. Dave, Amanda and I were singing Ring Around the Rosie, and when it was time to "all fall down" we would all go under water. Well, skip ahead to later that night, after we got all cleaned up, I catch Sarah doing circles in the kitchen saying "Asses, asses, asses" then she would sit down. Then it dawned on me, she was singing the "Ashes, Ashes" part and then "falling down." So, I started singing the song. She looked up at me, smiled and started walking in a circle. When I got to the "all fall down" part, she sat down. Then I sang the second part of the song, which I never heard before until we got a cd with the song on it, and when I got to the part where it says "they all stand up", she stood up. It was so cute and she just loved that I understood her game and could play with her.
Today she said her first 2 word sentence. She said, "Mommy up." Ahhh, they grow up so fast.
Well, that's all for now. I'll give an update on Amanda later. Today is Sarah's day. Love you baby.

How cute is that! I love watching them grow and learn, but its also kind of sad. Before you know it, they will be teenagers.

Colter only says about 10 words or so. Mommy is not one of them. Sigh.
