We got to the doctor a little bit late for my 18 month appointment, so it really became my 19 month visit.  I weighed 26 pounds and 6 ounces, was 33 inches long, and had a 20 inch head circumference, putting me in approximately the 75th percentile for height and weight and the 99th for head size.  I remembered having been at the doctor for a vaccine not too long ago, so I wasn’t too keen on going again, and I was right to be suspicious.  Ouch, those shots were not my favorite part of the visit!

I’m still a happy little girl (with personality to spare) and although my canines are bothering me a bit as they come all the way in, it’s nothing a nice frozen pea snack can’t fix.  I happen to like some veggies, including peas, green beans, and asparagus.  Other than that my foods of choice include yogurt, fruit, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, pizza, macaroni and cheese, and anything covered in marinara sauce.

My favorite pastime is chatting it up with my brother, who I have dubbed “Jack-Jack.”  I continue to add to my vocabulary of just over 40 words, and my new ones really give you a sense of my current obsessions and priorities.  The are: mine, Ernie, iron man, pizza, shoes, and flowers.  I really like to make Jack-Jack laugh, and the surest way to do this is to slap myself in the face and then say “ow.”  We both think it’s hysterical.  I also take very seriously the responsibility of warning people when something might be hot, and I proclaim most foods hot (even string cheese) until someone agrees to blow on it for me.

Current likes: puppies and taking my shoes on and off
