17 months....

Our little cherub is 17 months old...she has 10 teeth and two erupting at the moments...she loves to get the tissues out of the top drawer in the kitchen ...blow her now and put it in the bin...she can wash her hands...and clean her teeth...she even spits into the sink...lol...she likes to help around the house unpacking the dishwasher, hanging out clothes and so on although that is not always a help! She scribbles on the walls and can reach a lot more things around the house...she loves to play with the baby dolls...she can say "yes" and "sis ere" for sit there and "bo" for drink bottle..she is eating and sleeping pretty well too... and will either have porridge, weetbix, cornflakes or toast for breakfast...sandwiches, meat, cheese are usual for lunch....she loves pasta and noodles too...and grapes are always a hit....unfortunately the season is nearly over...she toddles everywhere very fast these days...and loves going outside to see the dog, dig in the dirt or explore the garden, or chase the cat around...we are going to fence off a smaller area for her as our house block is about 1 acre or more...then she can play outside more without me following her around...and we will have to get a little sand pit...She loves playgroup and did her first painting yesterday and had a go at the play dough...and she tried to join in on the actions for the songs at mat time (our playgroup is Montessori, has a leader and indoor and outdoor play, snack time when all the kids sit down together and then a mat session with songs)Morganne can pour her own drink from a jug into a glass now...She is 80.5 cm tall and 11.2kg...so pretty solid for her size...and so very cheeky...we love her...I shall update our last couple of weeks as soon as possible....Ben is complaining about the lack of updates...Lissy
