Seventeen Months!

05-11-2007 1 comment

You turned 17 months old!

The last few months have been a whirlwind of activity and learning for you. I can’t believe that just 10 weeks ago you couldn’t walk and now you are trying to climb onto the couch. Just five months ago, you rarely said “MaMa” or “DaDa” and now we hear them all the time (along with LOTS of other words) .

You have amazed me with your ability to count (all the way to 10!) and actually recognize letters. I almost fell over when I heard you say “Q” after I pointed to it and then you said several other letters when I pointed to those.

Your pesonality continues to grow along with your flair for the dramatic. We still get plenty of kisses and smiles but we have also been barraged with many no’s and temper tantrums. Sometimes the no is very gleeful and that makes me laugh. I am so happy that you have a sense of humor, though. It’s really delightful to hear you laugh when your Dad or I does something silly.

You are amazingly good with your hands and can spend lots of time putting things inside other things (and then shaking them all out). Your latest best friend is “Beee-Beee Peeg” (Baby Pig). He’s a little piggy bank I bought you when we were in Dallas.

Oh how you love Baby Pig. You often ask for him first thing in the morning and I had to let you nap with him the other day. You also still love Elmo, Little Einsteins and Knuffle Bunny. Poor Hoot has been relagated to second tier status.

While we are thrilled that you are growing up to be quite a little person, we are mouring ‘baby’ Savannah a little. While I don’t miss you screaming from 8PM to 3 AM, I can’t believe what a big girl you are already. It seems you were our little football just last week.

Kisses!
