Kiera: 18 months today!

Today kiera is 18 months old. She is so much fun at this age! she understands everything we tell her and listens some of the time. She is feisty and full of energy! she is very happy and easy going, but is also strong willed and will throw a fit if she doesn't get her way or if you are not understanding her. She loves to laugh a deep, low giggle that is soo cute! she LOVES to play dress up and will bring you a dress and push it into you and grunt, which means, put this on me, then she accessorizes with jewlrey, tiara, high heels, etc.! she also loves to look at books, play with barbies or polly pockets, and get in the bassinet and pretend she's a baby and suck on baby doll bottles. she loves to play with halle and they get along great. kiera understands taking turns and what mine means. they both understand that they can't take things from each other until they set it down (although kiera will take things from other kids,she respects halle). she loves playlands and anything dangerous. she has little fear which makes playgrounds and bounce houses really fun for her! she loves to eat and will eat just about anything we put on her plate. she loves to point to each of us in the family and tell us our names..daddy, mama/mommy, halle. we think kiera is pretty smart, she is talking a lot (if we compare her to halle, who could speak in sentences and knew a few hundred words by this age, then it doesn't seem like she is talking a lot, but if she was my first, then i would think she was doing pretty well).....
some of her words are: cat, meow, meow, daddy home, mine, no, duck, dog, woof, woof, white (snow white, this is one of her favorite words), rella (cinderella), belle , beast (beauty and the beast), eyes, nose, ears, ball, baba, show (tv show), go (i want to leave), night (good night), bye, cheese, meat, balls (peas), fish, shoes, bird, baby, phone, hello, hi, uh-oh, uh-huh, eat, barbie, co-co, horse, Ruthie, book.
we love our little kiki doodles so much, she adds a spark to our family and keeps us on our toes!

Hurray for Kiki!!!! She is such a freakin cute girly! I can't believe she is already 18months old and I still haven't seen her in person. Beauty is running strong in that house these days.
