I haven't really kept up the month day posts since Reese's birthday so this is a random sixteen month post which Reese celebrated yesterday.
Little Miss Reese is more fun and more challenging then ever. She knows exactly what she wants but has a hard time expressing her desires with words. i.e. She's a little fit thrower! I have realized that I am totally not equipped or prepared for handling these outbursts and many times I find them stressful. Clearly I should have read less books about pregnancy/breastfeeding and more about parenting toddlers:) How do y'all handle this?
However she is SO fun to play with. She loves to go outside and will stand at the door and beg and cry to go out. I love to be outdoors as well so we spend most afternoons playing outside. She is talking a lot and she makes us laugh with her words. Some of her favorites right now are wagon, dog, bird, NO!, yea, rock and ball.
She loves to ride in her wagon...
and of course Miss Independent also likes to push the wagon! She pushes it backward and says.."beep, beep beep." It cracks me up!
Lately I have been following a few friend of friends blogs such as this one
Praying for Harper. As soon as I started reading this blog I immediately started praying for this little girl. Fortunately looks like she is going to be just fine but I know there are so many others who are less fortunate. Bob and I realize how blessed we are that God chose us to be parents to a perfectly healthy little girl. I just wanted y'all to know that I thank God every day for my fit throwing little toddler:) To Reese I say BRING IT ON! I'm gonna win! I'm afraid this may only be the beginning..Sigh!
