16 Months

Can it be that our Little Lady is really 16 months old?  I keep telling Paul that this stage is so much fun!  I think he laughs at me every time I say it, but it is true.  There is so much to love about right now.  We definitely have our bad moments and days, but the good far outweighs the bad.  Mary Frances is full of life and excitement over everything!  It is hard to go throughout the day without joining her in her excitement over little things like walking in grass, watching trains go by, or listening to the planes flying overhead.  Here is a little list of the things I love about right now.

I love the look of excitement she gets on her face when we blow bubbles on the deck.

I love how she wakes up in the morning and excitedly runs off to find "dada."

I love the way she loves to go walking through the "gra" {grass}.

I love that she loves Elmo despite the fact that she has probably never even watched him on tv.

I love the way she bobs her head front to back when she hears music that she likes.

I love that when I ask her to snuggle with mommy she lays her head on my chest.

I love hearing planes and "cocters" {helicopters} fly overhead and looking at them together.

I love how she gets excited about helping me make coffee in the morning and that little does she know she is the reason I am making it.

I love watching her stand at the oven, peeking through the glass, watching the "faffles" {waffles} while they heat up in the morning.

I love hearing her giggles while she plays with "mamae" {Maggie}.

I love how she says "to to" and points her finger when she hears a train go by.

I love how she has started waving bye bye to me when I drop her off in the church nursery.

I love that when we pull up to church she starts talking about playing with her "fre" {friends}.

I love the way she snuggles in my arms while we read books before bedtime.

I love that she loves her "wowey" {lovey} and holds him tight while she goes to sleep.

We love you, Mary Frances!

Love,

Katy
