Makenna 18 month update!

Alexa Update: Oh Boy, do we have our hands full with her. She GETS into everything!! For example: she put her baby doll in the toilet the other day, and then another day she shut herself in the bathroom and took all the toilet paper off the roll. She got into her bedroom the other day and pulled all her wipes out of the container. I'm in trouble when I don't know where she is. She loves water: bath tub or swimming pool. She's just fearless! Total opposite of Makenna in everyway. I often say that the only thing my daughter's have in common is their eye color. Seriously, they are so different. Not sure how that will all play out as they get older. But I am hoping they will be best friends.
At her 18 month appointment she was in the 40% for weight(picky eater), 75% height(shocking), 75% Head(poor girl-big head, small face).
Words: Not NEAR what Makenna was saying at her age. So it has been difficult to communicate with her. She mostly points and hums at things.
Words: mommy, daddy, hi, bye, this, doggy, ishy(fishy), eez(please), says the animals sounds-but not the animal names, ine(mine), whoa, ow, no, yeah, yay, na na(Makenna)
If we ask her to say something, she will try to say it, it just doesn't always sound right. She has said, Hi Mommy, which is the first two words she put together. We love her outgoing personality. She is so much fun to watch and be around.

Love your blog!!! I was just smiling as I read your entries!! The pictures are great - you have a beautiful family! It was as if you were describing my children to a T in your entries about Makenna and Alexa (Grant is the wild one and doesn't talk much :o)
How hilarious!! Glad things are going well with you guys.

What a cutie! We have a few handfuls around here too - very scary when we don't know where they are and even worse when it's quiet!
