18 months

It is so hard to believe that my sweet baby girl is 18 months old. On June 6, 2012, I had the great pleasure of taking her to her wellness check up. She weighs 24 pounds and is 34 inches - tall and skinny.  I figure she will bypass me in height in 2 years. She also had to get 2 shots. I don't think shots will ever get easier. The most difficult part this time was that she said "Mommy! Ouch!"  and started crying. My heart literally fell and I started crying. Luckily, the nurse was great and quickly gave her a sticker. However, she forgot our TCBY coupon. Oh, well, we went anyway.

I am working really hard on getting pictures framed and put up on my picture wall. I have realized that I have only printed a handfull of pictures since Mila was born. I will probably go broke trying to get them all printed. There are too many to chose from and I'm too much of a sap to pick the ones I like. I can say that I have kept a hand written diary of everything Mila (and her parents) has accomplished since she was born. I'm pretty proud of that accomlishment.

Pictures coming soon...hopefully.
