We have been busy having LOTS of fun this summer. Allie is one grown lady :) She is learning all sorts of new things. She is now 18 months old, I can't believe my little lady is already a year and a half.. crazy how time flies.. these are just some of the fun new things allie is doing. Walks with Dada, bubba and charlie (walking bubba all by herself), swimming in the "pool", coloring, eating with a spoon and fork, saying lots of new words, opening the back door all by herself, talking with people on the phone, picking up and putting away her toys (in the right spots), walking up the stairs holding on the the railings, washes her hands and dries them on her own, feeds burps and attempts to dress baby, throws and catches balls, recognizes family memeber and friends in pictures, puts the animal puzzles together, sweeps the back porch with a big broom, and has MANY opinions on what she wants and does not want to wear on a daily basis :) These are just some of the fun things allie is doing now, its amazing to watch her learn new things on a daily basis.. I love to watch her just investigate something trying to figure out how it works... she is so her fathers daughter... trying to figure everything out and why it does what it does. And I just think its hilarious that she already wants to pick out what she wears EVERY day and there are some days where she will desperately want to wear some fancy church dress and I have to convince her that it is not comfortable to wear a fancy dress to play outside. Anything in her closet with animals or flowers on it is a must wear. Ugh I can just imagine the years ahead... good luck daddy with this little girl. :)
We are really having a great summer and really loving playing outside,enjoying the sun, and trips to the park. Allie loves to go up the playground and down the slides like the big kids.. no helping this little one anymore. She gets really mad when mom says something is too big for her. No way not this one.. she wants to be BIG. :) We took a weekend trip up to salina to visit friends and allie was a Trooper! We spent 10 hours at the riverfestival where allie only took a 30 min nap but was great all day till 10:30 that night. Thank you allie! Allie was a total groupie and just wanted to watch the band the whole night. We did crafts that day and she was very proud of the bracelet she made and needed to show everyone that passed her by. She is just one social butterfly and wants to say hi and talk to everyone. (not surprising I guess) :)
We are all VERY Excited about the NEW addition to our family BABY CHARLIE. Allie is still trying to figure out the difference between baby "yack" as she calls him (aka Zack) and baby charlie. All she knows is that she wants to touch both of them! We can't wait to finally squeeze little charlie. We are all going to be together in july and we can't wait!
