16 months

Emmy, oh Emmy!!!  You are a handful.  I can't determine if its you or  Breckie causing all the arguments.  You want everything Breck has and he wants everything you have.  All resulting in screaming from the whole family.  I have started a sticker chart with Breck to see if we can eliminate any of this.  You play very well if Breck is up playing on his leapfrog so its got to be jealousy.  You just had an ear infection.  You had a fever and I had to pick you up from school.  Then you seemed to feel better but now you have another runny nose and are becoming very restless at night.  I hope you're not getting another one.  Momma needs that sleep that I was getting very used to.  Breck is now sleeping in his room all night and even falling asleep on his own.  It is great.  This is a huge accomplishment for him.  You were doing great sleeping all night but for three nights you have been up and down all night long.  Here are a few things you are doing at 16 months.

* Climbing on anything you can.  Still not the couches or chairs though.  Thank goodness.
* loves running around the house with Breck.  Still runs kind of funny.  Still doesn't have all her coordination together quite yet.
* wants things her way or no way
* loves, loves, loves shoes...you are always wanting us to put shoes on you.
* loves trying to count...I'm thinking you are trying to say 1,2,3.  Three gets really high pitched.
* Loves to do Humpty Dumpty with Gigi.  Tells her to do it again.
* can point to all body parts...nose, ear, eyes, hair, head, arm, fingers, hand, toes, foot, leg, poopoo, diaper, belly button, mouth, tongue, did I forget any???? 
* She's a nose picker unfortunately.  She just laughs and laughs. 
* Mocks me when I say "No ma'am."  I try not to laugh.
* She loves to carry purses.
