Evelyn at 18 Months

- Evy loves her stuffed animals.  She takes a load of them to bed with her. And she'll ask for a different one to snuggle each night. She's also very attached to her blankie.
- If I need to keep Evy entertained for a while I'll give her a sheet of stickers.  She loves them!
- Favorite word: no.  Of course.
- Bathtime is still her favorite time of day.
- Evy is becoming such a daddies girl. She loves running to find daddy and welcome him home.  She'll ask throughout the day, "Daddy, where are you?"

- She is a trouble maker!  She us always climbing on things, making messes, and putting things in her mouth!
- Her 18 month visit was delayed due to our move, but here are her 19 month stats: 32.5 inches (58th percentile) and 23 lbs (48th percentile.)

- Evy is always eating!  She is always wanting some little snack or hanging on the refrigerator door to try and get in.
- Such a little smarty pants.

- Loves brushing her teeth.

- Evy loves to be outside.  She loves playing in the backyard, at the playground, or just going for a walk.
- She loves to see the school bus.  She waves and grins as it pulls up.  And then she shouts for her Nate Nate.

- Such a good little helper.  She's getting the hang of cleaning up. And she desperately wants to help me with the dishwasher.
- Evy's learned to throw a pretty good tantrum.

- Loves to look for bunnies in the backyard.

- She's been getting into dancing.  It's too cute!
- Before we leave her room and sometimes before she goes to sleep, Evy will ask for a hair bow to be put in her hair. What a little cutie!

- Her favorite game has got to be peekaboo.  She plays it all of the time.  Even with strangers at the grocery store.

- So many hugs and kisses.  I love it when she'll spontaneously come over and give me a hug.
- Evy has such a cute little personality.  So happy and smiley and sweet and full of adventure and lots of trouble!  I wouldn't trade her for anything.
