What a big girl I am!

We haven't had a whole lot going on since Christmas (thank goodness!) so there's not been a whole lot to share but we had a new development a few nights ago. Wynn fed herself with a big girl fork!

She has really started to become much more independent lately. Here's Wynnie at a glance at 15 months:

- She LOVES books. She reads them all day everyday. She'll either sit in her rocker and read them by herself or say "up" to me or Sam to come up on our laps so we can read to her. She is much more interested in getting through an entire book then she used to be.

- She has about a 25 word vocabulary. Granted some of the words sound like each other but she "thinks" she's saying them so I think that counts. Here are some of her words although there's more I just don't feel like typing them all:

Hi
Bye
Up
Stinky
Mom
Dada
Dog
Cow
Moo
Cat
Jojo
More
Hot
No-this is her favorite right now :)

- She LOVES LOVES LOVES Lucie! I couldn't ask for a better dog with Wynn. They are truly best friends and her new thing is as she's walking and Lucie walks up to her she'll lay her head on her and say "dog" so sweet and hugs her.

- She's recognizing some animals and their sounds. Her fave is definitely cow and moo but she's getting there with the other ones.

- She climbs stairs like she's in a race and she's learned to climb down them backwards. Of course we're always right behind her when she does it but it's an improvement from her old way where she would try to walk down like me and wipe out.

- She has gone on the potty once or twice more but doesn't seem as interested in it lately so we're going to lay off of it until she's a little older so she doesn't get irritated.

- We brush her teeth before bed each night now and she loves to bite my finger when I do it.

- She wears a size 5 shoe!

- She climbs up on EVERYTHING including trying our dining room table and from chair to chair in the family room. She is such a monkey lately and has NO fear.

- We're going for her 15 month well baby visit today so I'll post her stats later but I know she's gotten taller recently as her 12 month clothes are too short on her now. :(

- She has a molar coming in and one more molar that's are trying to pop through. Right now she has 10 teeth now including those two molars!

- Her hair is really growing and she's getting alot better at keeping her hair bands and barrettes in. This was driving me insane so I'm glad she's starting to cooperate. :)

- She's very into body parts now. She knows where her nose, eyes and belly are and we're working on the rest!

Look at how big my girl is!!
