This weekend we celebrated Hadley's "Sweet Sixteen". 16 MONTHS, of course! ;) It was another fun month of new tricks learned and an increase in vocabulary and sound effects! Good thing we are nearing the month of October, because Hadley goes around saying "Boo!" and "Mowwww" (Meow) constantly. Such a silly, little sweetheart!

16 Month Favorites: 

Favorite Book: "Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You?" By: Dr. Seuss. This book teaches various sound effects. She knows to "knock knock" on cue before we even read that line of the book! Smartie! 

Favorite Toy: Still loving on her baby dolls. She also has a slight obsession with chairs. She enjoys moving them around the living room and backing up to sit down on them. She also watches her nursery rhyme shows, while rocking her babies in said chairs. It's pretty adorable!

Favorite Foods: We've eaten a lot of quesadillas this month and she has even learned how to dip her chips in queso. Mainly she just licks it off the chip like a true Texan! :) She also loves any and all kinds of berries!

Favorite Party Trick: She loves to "Cheers" us with her sippy cup at dinner time! Multiple times! Future Delta Gamma! :) 
​
Teeth: She has 9 teeth and a 10th one that is breaking through!

Words: berries, "bapoo" (diaper), done, down, no no no, book, balloon

Sound effects: "Moooowwwww" (meow), "ruff ruff", "weeeeee", beep beep, choo choo, shhhhhhh

What's Hadley Up To?
​
She's always been a pretty clean eater. When she's done with her meal, she also likes to help out by lifting her plate and saying "done", then she lifts up her placemat. She also likes to "help" sweep up any crumbs that made their way to the ground. 

I have nicknamed her the "gatekeeper" because if she notices that the baby gate is open she immediately walks over to close it. Then usually claps for herself at a job well done. She has never once attempted to escape. Why would she want to if Mommy is on the same side of the gate as her?

When I go to get her out of her crib in the morning, the first thing she does is points to her bows and says "bow" and wants one placed in her hair immediately! 

She loves shoes and enjoys bringing them to their rightful owner. You must then put them on your feet. Future shoe salesgirl?

Is an aggressive hugger and kisser. At Kindermusik, she knocked one girl to the ground with her extra loving hug! At story time, she gave a 3 month old baby boy a kiss on the forehead! She is one loving little girl with plenty of affection to give!

She likes carrying things around the house (toys, toiletries, articles of clothing, etc...) and then putting them in random places. Daddy found legos in his boots one morning and Mommy can never find her beauty products without doing a full scale hunt for them!

She tells us when she needs a new diaper, if she has gone #2. She'll say "bapoo" which is her word for diaper. 

Still lots of tears if she gets dropped off at the church nursery. Doesn't like being left with strangers. 

She has started wearing necklaces and also loves to walk around the house wearing bracelets! Such the accessorizer!

She acts out the motions in her nursery rhyme videos. She points when they point, claps, stomps, etc. The cutest, though, is her learning to spin around in a circle with her arms outstretched! 

​She can identify and point to her nose, eyes, mouth, hair, head, and feet!

Hadley, it is an absolute dream getting to watch you learn and pick up new things each and every day. We know that you will continue to thrive as you begin Mother's Day Out this month. You are the sweetest and cutest little thing and we love you very much. We are so proud of you!

Happy Sweet Sixteen! XOXO
