A blog JUST for Charlotte!

Charlotte just barely turned 20 months! She is getting to be such a big kid. She's definitely not a baby anymore! Some things that she is doing and enjoys:

- making animal noises
- watching Blue's Clues
- playing with her blocks and knocking down towers
- coloring (or watching Mom and Dad draw pictures)
- reading books
- she has an "entourage" of stuffed animals and 2 dolls. Anywhere she is in the house she HAS to have all 5 of them and both blankets for security. She also sleeps with the whole gang.
- playing with her number magnets on the fridge
- stacking and organizing Mom's tupperware
- when we're driving and are in traffic or at a stop light she says, "uh-oh" over and over until we start driving again then says, "thank you!"
- her favorite food is ranch. She will seriously eat anything with ranch. She loves her vegetables and fruits. We went out for pizza the other day and she ate half a bread stick and an entire PLATE of salad.
- she loves to walk around. We'll go on walks everywhere and she loves it. Sometimes she'll "charge" and start running and going "ahhhhhhhhh!"... it's pretty funny!
- she loves music and likes to sing
- her hair is FINALLY growing a little and she likes to have me put a curl on the top. She stand so still while I fix it and poses so pretty when we're done.
- sometimes she likes to watch cooking shows with me and will ask me to turn on "cooook!"
