One year and one half

At 18 months old Zoë weights 24 lbs. and is 34 inches tall.  She loves to dance and her favorite song is "The Wheels on the Bus" but really all she wants me to say is:  "...and the seats go bump bump bump" all so she can jump up and down which she does when she wants me to sing it, and also while I am singing it.  Cheese is still her favorite food, but tomatoes are a close second.  If Daddy gives her anything that is automatically her favorite no matter what.  Birds are her favorite animals and she gets excited to look for them and point at them, she has come to realize it is pointless to try and catch them.  Currently she is cutting 4 more teeth, I think that will just leave a couple more teeth to go.  She is showing a lot of interest in both dress up and playing house.  When she is really mad and crying she starts to clap her hands which is kinda funny that she already knows how to get her aggression out.  Her list of words is very long and she does a good job to attempt to repeat any word I ask her too.  She is working on getting sentences together, the two word sentences she does do usually are in Yoda:  "Truck, Dada's".  Also at night she will ask for one more book about 100 times.  She does this by holding up one finger and says:  "One, one.  Book.  One.  More".  My dear daughter is also now obsessed with "Drive" which when she says she puts her hands up like she is driving a car.  Drive means she wants to get in the car and honk the horn a few times then crawl around the inside of the car.  My wild child is always full of energy and loves adventures.  She adores animals and wants to hug and kiss any she sees.  Zoë is strong and determined with lot of sweetness mixed in.  I do foresee some serious verbal scuffs in our future, as she is very clever in her actions already.

Dancing!
