16 Months Old




Now that Sophie is walking, she is all over the place! She enjoys carrying her toys and books from room to room, causing a great mess wherever she goes! She loves that she can walk everywhere now. She still tumbles quite a bit, but she gets right back up and keeps moving.

Now that Sophie is a toddler, she is learning some of those dreaded behaviors... She has started to whine when she doesn't get her way, she has thrown a few mini tantrums, and she says "me, me" (her version of "mine"). She also is becoming more of a picky eater. The things she does not like end up on the floor, and she really wants all of her food to be placed in a bowl. Goodness... :)

Even though some of those behaviors drive us crazy, she is such a joy to watch. We love hearing her new words come out (she has about 25 words right now) and seeing her get excited about the little things. My favorite new word she has learned is "Ameh," her version of Amen after her bedtime prayer. She is constantly amazing us and constantly making us smile. We are truly blessed!

Oh my - she sure is a cute one! I remember when Sarah first started saying 'Amen' - it melted my heart! You guys look very happy! I've been noticing your digital scrapbook pages on Facebook, they are fantastic! What program/website do you use?
