19 Months

Kelsey is 19 MONTHS old and we are loving every new thing Kelsey does as now multiple new words/phrases and/or new skills occur daily. Some of our recent favorites include:

-"loh loo" (love you)

-"I on know" (I don't know said with a head tilt and arms raised palms up)

- "Bella, NO!!!" in her loudest yell with her finger shaking at Bella's face (and this is much louder than her usual sweet sweet voice- it appears she's bossy like her mama ;)

- Climbing down the stairs without help backwards feet first.

-Climbing to sit on her chair at her kid table and my chair at our dinner table

-"Mommy, No." said matter of factly because apparently, Kelsey is the boss in our house now.

-Kelsey is now naming and knows certain TV/book characters, specifically "Elmo" "Cookie" etc.

-Kelsey's attempt to sing the blessing with us as we light the Chanukah candles, but even better how after we light our menorah, she goes past her present to light her wooden candles (thanks, Aunt Diane and Uncle Gary) and "sing" the blessing. SO cute

-Kelsey's uncanny ability to understand things we don't remember showing her let alone teaching her.

-How she pats and rubs our back when we pick her up.

Kelsey NEVER ceases to amaze us. We feel like the luckiest parents in the world!
