Gianna went last week for her 18 month well baby check. It seems like she is growing up even faster than Hudson! She amazes me more and more with what she does and says. I can see the differences between a boy and girl already. She is more advanced in her speech than he was, so maybe it makes her feel older.
Weight - 24 lbs 1 oz (50%)
Height - 33.5 inches (90%)
Tall enough to reach things off the counter now
She is a big talker and we can understand most of what she says. Here are some of the things she can say:
"Whoah!"
"I did it!" or "I got it!"
"I don't know?" (and shrugs)
"Where's daddy?" or "Where's brother?"
"Mama, watch this."
"Here you go." (and hands you something)
" Mama, I want ______". snack, juice, game,eat, etc.
"Dad's at work."
Enjoys being chaffeured by her big brother
She holds hands with Hudson when riding in the car
Closes her eyes to pray, but still looks around
The kids fuss with each other some, but they mostly love each other
Hudson was telling her goodnight and said, "I love you Gianna. You are my best friend."
Her favorite things to watch is Cars, Oso, Mickey Mouse, and Doc McStuffins
Listens and follows instructions well
She helps pick up and clean
Likes going outside to play, ride bikes, and slide
She occupys herself well with looking at books and playing with her dolls. She "reads" book out loud.
She is still a big eater and eats all day! She likes almost everything. Lately she likes apples, grapes, bananas, broccoli, green beans, carrots, pasta, yogurt, turkey, hamburger meat, rice and gravy, crackers, hot dogs, and cheese.
Gianna started "praying" on her own. Hudson is recording her and tells her what to do.
