18 months

For a sneak peak at Lilah 18 month photos by KDB Photos, click here

Lilah's 18 month stats:
Height - 33.5 inches (93rd percentile)
Weight - 24 lbs (43rd percentile)
Head- 50th percentile...yep, didn't write it down :)

so...what's the little monkey up to these days?

Talking / Communicating-
This past week, Lilah has really started saying words. Some new ones: keys, eat, doggie, please, cheese (kind of sound the same, but that's ok), auntie...and a lot of just repeating the same number of syllables, like if you ask her to say thank you she will say da-dee or moo-mee...I kind of love it! She is really good at her lion roar and cow moo as well as continuing to point out body parts. She still does a lot of pointing and mmmm'ing, but her words are becoming more and more!

Eating-
Still a pretty picky eater. She loves her fruit, yogurt, toaster strudel (egg & sausage), fruit snacks and cheese. Meat and veggies are a little tougher to get in. Any suggestions?

Activities-
Lilah rarely sits still. She loves to color/scribble, play with duplos, dance, jump, play with keys (see photo below), watch and dance with the Wiggles, read, be tickled, sing songs...oh and getting into anything and everything she shouldn't! She also LOVES her blankie, airplanes, the moon and babies (which is pretty much anyone shorter than her).

Lilah does not like exam rooms, as I assume all 18 month old children. After the appointment, both mom and Lilah stopped for a well deserved ice cream treat :)

So much happier after ice cream!

Keys! She runs around to all the doors and tries to unlock them.

So there you have it.
