Brightyn at 18 months

Things have been so crazy lately with packing and house stuff that I completely forgot to post about Brightyn at 18 months.

Stats:

Weight: 22 pounds (more than a pound bigger than Kinlee was at this age)
Height: 33 1/2 inches (over an inch taller than Kinlee was at this age)

When I had her in for her wellcheck appt., the Dr. asked me if she was saying at least 10-15 words. I kind of laughed to myself, she says WAY more than that.

Here is a list of some things she can say, I am sure I have left out lots of things.
I see you, I need that, I love you, thank you, I want out, Almost the entire song of twinkle twinkle little star, monkey, fork, hat, hair, brush, sissy, kinlee, mom, dad, eat, noodle, otter pop, cat, doggie, banana (nana), poop, light, goodnight, poptart, belly, bye bye, binky, chip, little, cheese, hot dog, earring (earna), me, jump, please, candy, beep beep, baby, bath... the list goes on. It's like once they start they never stop :)

She LOVES Barney and Elmo. Loves Dora. Such a girly girl. She gets so excited to have her toenails painted and holds perfectly still while I paint them. Her new thing is "me". If you ask who farted she proudly admits "me"! She is not much a of a napper, and is an early riser. Makes for a long day sometimes...

Winter Fun

Here is a little of what we have been up to lately. I thought we had a crazy busy summer, but winter seems to have kept us busy as well.

Here is our annual visit downtown to see the lights. Not sure what was up that night with all the fog.

"Ugly Sweater" get together. Thanks Linds and Ry for having us all over. We love you guys!

Night out with Viv and Randy. Went to Olive Garden for dinner, and to see the lights (again:) We had a blast!

Christmas Party at Grandma and Grandpa McDermaids. The kids as Santa arrived.

What do you do when it snows 12+ inches?

1) Thank the good lord you have a snowblower.
2) Go play in it of course!

Brightyn - 15 Months

Stats:

Weight: 20 lb. 9 oz. (20%)
Height: 31 inches (75%)

** Kinlee at 15 months was 20 lb. 8 oz. and 30 3/4 inches. So it looks like they are going to both be skinny tall girls. Nothing wrong with that right ? :)




THIS IS KINLEE WHEN SHE WAS 17 MONTHS. (people tell me they look alike, but I do not think they really do at all. Other than blue eyes and blonde hair...
