18 months!

I can't believe that Avery is already 18 months old!  Didn't we just celebrate her 1st birthday?!?!  The months just keep passing on by....
It's amazing how much she has learned in the past 6 months.  She is such a big girl now, so independent and strong-willed.  I wonder who she gets that from =) 
Recent accomplishments - Feeding herself with a spoon or fork (she LOVES to feed herself yogurt and applesauce!), putting her socks and shoes on by herself (and taking them off ALL day long!), pointing to all her body parts, baby sign language (more and all through are her favorites), brushing her teeth all by herself with her Hello Kitty electric toothbrush, doing simple puzzles, playing with play-doh, learning more words. 
She now says about 15-20 words/phrases... Momma, DaDa, Daddy, Nana, doggie, hi, bye-bye, all through, more, thank you, I love you, I pooped, Cooper, Shelby, Sissy, A-choo, Hmm, roar, yes.  She also sings like crazy... usually the ABC's or she makes songs up. 
She is such a sweet little girl.  She loves giving hugs and kisses, saying hi and bye to everyone, sharing her snacks, trying to help Mommy and Daddy (whether it's sweeping or doing the laundry), hugging the dogs and giving them treats, and she LOVES smiling and laughing.  She's getting such a cute little personality.  We just love her to pieces. 

 Helping Mommy with the laundry this morning.
 Oh my...
