18 months... half a month later!

So now that Lucy's been 18 months for a couple of weeks, I thought it might be a good idea to post her pics! We took these while we were putting up our Christmas tree. She was so excited that her little body couldn't handle it - she actually danced in place! It was super cute! I'm excited for this Christmas with her - last year was fun but I think this year will be even better. Anyway, Lucy is a bundle of energy. She runs and climbs and runs some more. She jabbers all the time and says "mama" and "daddy" a ton. She has added a bunch of signs too - rainbow, car, train, thank you... I really should make a running list of these. It's been neat to see her pick things up. She's also learned a bunch of different body parts and loves to point them out on other people and now the cat - he's so patient with her as she's poking his eye out!! We are working on the "gentle" idea. Now that she's officially old enough to go to nursery, she's scared of it. Go figure. Any ideas on how to get her not to cry/freak out/cling? Send them our way! At her 18 month appointment, she is finally evening out. She's 22 lbs. 15 oz. (29%) and 32 inches tall (49%) and everything looks good! She also got two more teeth - up to 14 now, only 6 to go. We love our big little girl!
