Happy 1 1/2 Year Birthday Callie! (Belated)

Happy 1 1/2 Birthday Callie! Callie, I cannot believe you are already 1.5 year's old! It's been a blessing to by your momma and I can't to see you grow up to be a beautiful young lady.

You love to play outside and will head that way as soon as we get home. We blow bubbles and draw on the patio with our sidewalk chalk. You also love your tree house and slide, which you started climbing up and sliding down all by yourself! We love to go for walks in the neighborhood and wave "Hi" to everyone. You've even learned how to roll down your car window to wave hello to the cars beside us- you are so friendly!


Your favorite words are: Mommy, Daddy, Doc, Up, Uh OH, OHH NOO, Hey, Bye Bye, Cheese, Please or "Peeessee" and you are even saying colors- Yellow, Purple, Pink, Blue, etc. You continue to have a bunch of nicknames: Callie Girl, Callie Boo, Boo, Callie Mac, Mac, and Mac Attack. You are not always a perfect angel, however, which makes me sad. You have started to hit so we are working with you on not doing that, although it seems to be taking longer that we had hopped. You still love your paci at nap and night times. You've done a pretty good job not taking it throughout the day, but we keep it handy just in case of an emergency. We go to see your doctor next week and I'm sure she'll recommend we stop using it- she said at 18 months we should start weaning you off, that's going to be ruff, but you can do it! I also can't wait to see how much you've grown since your last visit! You are running all over the place now and its getting harder to keep you confinded, but that's okay, you are exploring your world and it's fun to see you learning new things every day. I love you baby girl and I can't wait to see what happens in your future!
