Happy 18 Months, Shelby!

Wow, I can't believe Shelby is a year and a half already!!! She is getting so big and cuter every day. I love watching her concentrate and learn all the time. She is not a big talker, but a big babbler!! Her vocabulary is limited, but she can communciate very well. She definitely knows how to express what she wants.
I can't imagine my life without her!! I love her more than the world!!

12 THINGS I LOVE ABOUT SHELBY RIGHT NOW!

1. I love how she breaks into dance at random moments, even if there is no music!
2. I love how she tries to pick more than 2 objects up and holds them close to her chest with one hand to free up the other hand, and then drops the object. But most of the time she is patient and will continue to try.
3. I love how she is OBSESSED with books right now. Especially Brown Bear, Brown Bear!
4. I love how instead of nodding yes, she rocks her whole body back and forth in agreement.
5. I love how she is giving real nice kisses now (with less tongue!)
6. I love when she runs to me when I pick her up at daycare and wraps her arms around my neck.
7. I love how she squats down and tilts her head to give Schooner a hug.
8. I love how she is starting to make choices when I give her options!
9. I love how she runs to the door when she hears the garage door open or someone coming in.
10. I love how she sounds like a little Fonzie and when she likes something, she says "YEAAA"...she just needs the thumbs up!
11. I love how she insists on holding my purse when I am carrying her in the house!
12. I love her high pitched squealy voice that she gets for no reason! She just starts babbling like she is learning her different tones!

She is AWESOME!
