18 months

Our house is crazy town now that we have entered into toddler-hood.  I knew that she was going to be busy and always on the go, but I don't think I REALLY realized what being on the go would be like for Garrett and I...and the dogs.  Because Graycen is on the move, we are on the move, including the dogs as they try to dodge all of the love that G wants to give them.  But even with the busy-ness of our lives, this stage is amazing - full of laughter, learning, emotions, talking, imitating and love.  

18 month stats:

• weight: 21 lbs 10oz. (15th percentile)
• height: 32.5" (65th percentile)
• the very little hair that she has, is strawberry-blond
• working on teeth #8 and #9

Filling out her health forms

Her favorite things are:

•  puppies - she is obsessed with dogs.  As soon as she sees one - real, on TV in a picture, etc., she screams with glee. 
• reading - her favorite books are "Goodnight Gorilla," "The Pout-Pout Fish," "Llama, Llama..." books about animals and books about puppies.
• parks, especially the slides
• walks and outdoor time

Graycen's vocabulary continues to grow and she is trying to say new words everyday.  So far she has added:

• please ("mees") - usually followed by "daddy," which she has figured out will get her most things she is wanting :)
• ducky
• kitty
• mouse ("mou")
• mine
• no-no
• yes
