19 Months

Morgan is now 19 months old. She seems to be having a vocabulary spurt. She has really started talking a lot and we are starting to understand more of her words. Her are some of her favorite words.

Hi, Bye, Momma, Dada, Gran-ma, Auntie, Emma (a friend), Dog Dog (what she calls all dogs), Bug, Cheese , Pretty, Pop (what she calls popsicles – she loves them), Baby, Blankie, Papa (her paci), Bus, Two (her favorite number these days), Pool, Ball, Eye, Eat, Book, Write, More, Please, No (our least favorite of her words), and Money. Bryan started giving her his change each day and they go and put it in her piggy bank. She now asks for money daily. It is so funny. She loves money already…but at least she is saving it. :)

Morgan has also started to make noices like some animals. She meows like a kitty cat, baaas like a sheep and ooh-ooh-aah-aahs like a monkey. So cute!! Not only is she talking more, but she is understanding more and more of what we say.

She is still the perfect little eater and sleeper. She has us so spoiled!! She is still not a fan of TV. She may get that from her mommy!! Morgan still loves her paci. We try our hardest to only let her have it at night or nap time, but there are still days/times when she has it at other times too.

Morgan has a new found love for babies. She loves taking care of her dolls and goes through a routine with them that is similar to hers (she tries to feed them, brush their teeth, clean their face, put them to bed, etc). She is going to be a good big sis!

18 Month Stats

I am a little late updating Morgan's stats from her 18 month doctor's appointment. At 18 months, Morgan weighted in at 22lbs. 8oz.(25% percentile) and 32" tall (60% percentile). She is still pretty terrified of the doctor’s office. She knows what happens there…shots :(. The good news is that she doesn’t have to get shots again until she turns 4 (excluding flu shots)!! We will go back and get a flu shot in a month or so, but other than that her next well visit is at 2!! We are so lucky that she has been so healthy!

Morgan's 1st Haircut

Today I took Morgan to Sweet & Sassy in Southlake for her 1st haircut. This place is great and very kid friendly, however Morgan didn't enjoy getting her haircut. Ms. Adrianna gave Morgan a lollipop which I thought would keep her happy and entertained but it didn't. She cried the majority of the time so I ended up having to hold her. Ms. Adrianna did a great job trimming Morgan's hair even though she was pretty squirmy. Morgan got two glitter stars on her arm when she was all done, which she loved. As soon as Morgan was out of the salon chair, she was happy, enjoyed her lollipop and had the best time playing on the runway. We will definitely go back next time she needs a trim.
