let's talk about olive

olive had her 18 month check up this week. 18 months...crazy.

she's healthy and thriving at a whopping 34" tall and 27 lbs, that puts her in the 95% for height and 75% for weight.

the girl is tall.

she's talking jiberish like a pro and is saying more and more words each day. some of her favorites right now are: cheese, papa, ball, moon, and popcorn (which she could eat her weight in). she can point to most all of her body parts, and she's doing great with animal sounds. she loves to meow like kitty, bark like a dog, hiss like a snake, and growl for lions, tigers, bears and most all other animals. she loves baths and LOVES to swim.

she becoming more and more of a little girl and less of a baby each day. she's happy most all the time and really expressive. she easily smiles and laughs, and loves to play, dance and be silly.

AND, she's an official nursery goer!

here are a few videos of what she's been up to lately.

who knew that showing this little thing the world could be so rewarding.
