21 months already

Goodness gracious, time is flying! And I'm trying to make sure I spend as much time cherishing you as possible before your little sister arrives. Things will change a little then, since you won't be the only baby. But you'll ALWAYS be my baby, you got that?! Good.

So a lot has happened in the last two months. Most recently, you and I started swim lessons! And you just love the water, which makes me so very happy. (I was afraid you might not like the water after you fell into Grandpa and Nana's pool--no I was not there--but it didn't faze you one bit!) What makes swim lessons so great is that our friends, Lexi and Kathryn, are taking them, too! And Mariah is the instructor, so now you ask for "Yayah" and "bahtur" every day. It's a good thing Lexi has invited you to come over any time you want, so you can swim!

You remind me to pray before we eat, because Daddy has taught you very well. We also pray at bed time, and at both of those times, you say, "Amen," when we're done. You say, "Bruh-bur," "bug,"--you are obsessed with bugs and anything that's small and black is a bug to you--"apple"--all fruit is "apple" except for bananas--and you're also obsessed with ice! Daddy got a good video the other day of you, too, so hopefully that is still around.

Here are some of my favorite pictures, which remind me of a few things I forgot to mention:

We now have a nice place to sit outside! And, of course, you love outside.

While Mommy went down to Long Beach to be Matron of Honor is Auntie Maymay's wedding, Auntie Jill took care of you, and you blew your own bubbles! You LOVE bubbles so much.

Daddy and Mommy attended a marriage conference at Hume Lake, and we were able to bring you along because Yayah came and looked after you while we were attending meetings!

Daddy bought this plush toy for you. You LOVE Harry the Bunny.  You even want to share your water with him.

You make the most dramatic faces when you eat.

And this is my favorite face! I say, "Smile!" You say, "Cheese!"

Getting ready to get into the pool at Nana's and Grandpa's. And you love your sunglasses!


And here's a couple videos:

I just LOVE you, Baby!!
