Eighteen Months

Aniela turned a year and a half today! She is so much fun and is always learning and doing new things. Her vocabulary has expanded exponentially and she is very good at communicating what she wants. She still loves her baby dolls and takes them for walks all the time in their stroller. She loves to read and if I ask her to get a specific book like the "monkey book" she goes right to the pile and picks out the correct one.

Her favorite thing to do right now is to color. It is the first thing she asks to do in the morning. She likes to dance around the living room and laughs when she "falls down". Aniela is also testing her limits. When she is doing something she is not supposed to, she looks at us to see how much she can get away with. She still loves to eat especially pizza and pasta. Before bed she gets out her toothbrush and brushes her teeth (we get a turn after she brushes).
