one and a half.

well we cant believe it. 

but its true. our little girl is 18 months. 

she is definitely not a baby anymore and she is learning new tricks everyday.

 boy do we love her.

she just went to her 18 month appointment this week and she is still our little skinny minnie.

she has yet to break the 20lb. mark and is weighing in at 19.4 lbs.

but she has grown 3 inches since her last check-up.

i wish i burned calories the way this girl does. haha

here are some of the things that bri can do now at 18 months...

she loves to run and jump.

(her feet dont come off the ground and it makes us laugh)

she loves to stack her blocks and really anything stackable.

she loves putting her barn animal puzzle together.

she knows what everything is it seems like. bobby and i are going to have to start spelling things like outside and shower. 

she still loves reading books and finally likes you to read them to her. for the longest time she was only interested in flipping through the pages. 

she is great at taking her shoes off and loves to try on mommy and daddys shoes.

she is starting to say so many words like mine, daddy, mom, stuck, and hi. and she is starting to mimic us so much more.

she still loves giving kisses and hugs.

and she LOVES her stuffed animals. she hugs them all the time and takes them for walks in her stroller.

she loves to have pretend teaparties.

she is still a very picky eater but she is getting better at trying new foods.

we just cant believe how grown up she is and how much she makes us laugh!

one example of her latest antics happened on wednesday . my best friend took me out for my birthday that is coming up. we had such a great night out! we stuffed our faces at craigos and then caught a movie at the cheap theater. 

it was amazing and i loved spending the evening with one of my favorite people! thanks mally!

anyways, we were gone for about 4 hours and i dont usually leave bri very often because bobby and i just always take her with us when we go somewhere.

bri had a great time hanging out with daddy and when i got home she was very excited to see me.

so excited that when i asked her what she did while i was gone she proceeded to bring me all of her toys that were on the floor while babbling away the entire time.

it completely melted my heart and is still making me laugh just thinking about it! haha.

thats probably more than you ever wanted to read about our daughter so i apologize for make this so long.

but a happy (late) half birthday to our bri baby!

we love you!!!
