18 months - what Ani can do

Mostly for my benefit, I like to record what is going on since I am not keeping up with a babybook.

Words she can say:
Daddy Bye bye
Bob (her favorite sock doll)
Buddha (bird)
boot
boot (book)
Bridget
Midget (Monty)
Mama
moo
hoo (what owls say)
bizzsch (buzz)
more
wah wah (water)
juice
muck (milk)
dah doo (thank you)
pees (please)
elmo
wii
rock
row row row (for the song)
la la la la
rubbt (ribbit)
roar
papa (grandpa)
bumpa (grandpa)
Nana (for both grandmas)
ya ya (sarah)
yawn (jon)
baby
etc.

She can climb a stepladder, get into a chair, climb into the rocker, get on (but not off) the rocking horse and airplane car, drink from a cup (but not without spills), use a spoon and fork to eat with help, color with crayons, markers, and pencils. Get in and out of Mama's bed successfully, put her binky in her crib, pretend to blow her nose.

This morning she was telling Bob (the doll) "no no no no". Clearly Bob was a bad baby and needed to be told what was what. I believe he was stealing her pacifier.

She loves to have pretend tea and feed it to you. She loves to be tickled. She loves to wash her own hands with a paper towel, loves brushing her teeth, loves the bath.

She is not fond of green beans, having to be in the car for a long time, and getting shots at the dr.

18 months

Boy, its been a long time. Well, Anika is so much fun. Of course, I am sure you all assumed that was the case. This video of reading a book together should really say it all.
