Eighteen Months Ago...

Eighteen months ago Autumn was born. She has grown from that 6 lbs 13 oz infant to a 21 pound toddler. She is smart, funny, opinionated, fearless and beautiful (although I am a bit biased).

-She still loves Mickey and Minnie Mouse and was thrilled to meet them on our trip to Disney World this summer.
-She has also grown fond of Elmo and Blue. The three shows we keep on a constant rotation in our house are "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse", "Sesame Street" and "Blues Clues".
-She loves to play in the pool and is brave enough to stick her face into the water.
-Blankey still goes everywhere Autumn goes.
-She has started testing her limits, and has taken several trips to "Timeout".
-Her favorite foods are bananas, mandarin oranges, corn, bread, spaghetti, blueberries, watermelon, cheese, and of course, Fruit Loops. We still have a difficult time getting her to eat meats.
-She must blow on her food before she eats it, everything is too hot.
-She says "Please" and "Thank you" when asking for and receiving things. "Please" comes out as "Please a Mama" and "Thank you" is "Thanks a Mama"
-She knows where her eyes, ears, fingers, toes, nose, teeth, head, tummy and belly button are. We are working on arms and legs.
-She knows what a dog, cat, cow, tiger, owl, and duck "say".
-She loves babies.
-She still sleeps with her shoes on.

Autumn is full of life and loves to laugh! She is independent and does not mind playing by herself. She loves to play outside but does not want her hands to get dirty. She gets angry and frustrated easily. She always gives kisses after getting in trouble. She is a handful and I wouldn't want it any other way!
