Bella's 18 Month Stats

Beautiful Bella. This little girl makes me smile 100 times a day. She is so loving and sweet. She is very independent and likes to do things her own way and on her own timetable. She mimics everything Sofia does and follows her around all day. She loves babies and can spot them anywhere and says "hi baby!" She loves to be outside and begs to go out. Once out she finds her friends at the playground and is off on her own. Most all of there friends are 3 +. It makes me laugh how much she loves hanging with the big girls. Getting her back inside is always followed with lots of tears.

She loves to wear bows and to be "pretty." She asks for her bow every morning. If it falls off during the day she brings it straight back to me to put back on.

Bella wasn't so sure what to think of the doctor this visit. Having her head measured was more traumatic than the shots for some reason. Here are her stats:

Height: 31"....32%

Weight: 22 lbs 1 oz....19%

She still loves to play the piano and loves when her sister will play with her. They stay up on that bench for a long time pounding out their lovely music!

One of Bella's favorite activities is to take all the letter magnets off the front of the fridge and put them on the side and then back to the front over and over again. Sometimes she let's Sofia help.

Bella is just starting to really talk. I think she listens to Sofia and loves to say what Sofia says. Her classic phrase is "Oh, nooo!" with a very concerned voice. She surprises us with some of the things she says since we got so used to her not saying much. Most of the time she says things clearer than Sofia. I think she spent all those months taking in how to talk so she could say everything at once!

Bella loves animals (mostly dogs and her giraffe), her baby, books, and music. She loves to dance to any tune she can here.

This picture is the best way to describe Bella. She loves to climb and hide in small places, carry around her, doll, have her dog in close proximity, and usually always has a smile on her face. She is such a cuddle bug and giggles constantly. I sure love my little Belly boo.
