17 Months
(14 months adjusted)
Avery
- Crazy kid. She is everywhere and into everything!
- Is learning to share. She understands when we ask her to give something to her sister or to us
- Still loves her binky. It's going to be a tough habit to break...we're going to try working on having it gone by the time she turns two
- Loves stacking toys, putting toys in their bin, and playing with her Little People/toy house
- Has four teeth
- Is not particularly fond of water...only one time has she gotten into a pool and enjoyed it. We'll definitely be working on it this summer!
- Likes to growl when we ask her what the lion says - she thinks it's absolutely hilarious
Here she is, putting her bows away like a big girl :)
First snow cone!
Just hangin' out by the garbage can. It's the cool thing to do.
Harper
- My little dancer! She loves to wave her arms around and shake her booty like nobody's business the second she hears music
- Sings! She'll walk around the house singing "da da da da" when she's happy
- Also learning to share. But most of the time she doesn't need to be told to do it. If Avery is crying or upset, she'll hand her a binky or a toy to play with. She has such a sensitive little heart
- Loves to talk all day long (as long as she's home)
- Still quite a mama's girl
- Has five teeth
Always pushing her stroller around
Making a mess in my bathroom in Christmas jammies and wearing Chad's lanyard as a necklace. Adorable.
The girls have begun talking to each other! Like, if Harper is in another room, Avery will yell out "ba? ba?" and Harper will respond with some sort of jabber and come to Avery. They'll talk talk talk all day to each other. It's adorable! It's amazing to see how they are completely understanding of what's going on and know what we mean when we ask them to do (or not do) something. You wouldn't think a 14 month old would be that aware but they're much smarter than we give them credit for! I love seeing their little personalities forming and the love they have for one another. It is the sweetest sight for a mom.
Classic Avery, pushing Harper over ;)
They love playing in their fort!
Playing with their older cousins!
