22 Months Old

Today is Brooke is 22 months old. When did my baby become a toddler?

She has had 7 haircuts. She has 12 teeth. 2 cutting through. She is starting to wear a 2T. Her eyes are still changing...more and more each day from hazel to green...or maybe that is wishful thinking so she'll have green eyes like Mommy. She weighs 23lbs. She sleeps 12 hours most nights and takes a 2-3 hour nap most days. She sucks her right thumb while holding her taggie blankie. She likes cheese, pancakes, grapes and loves "pop-pop" (popcorn).
She has a ton of personality! She defies the laid back third born birth order theory. Although, she is a little comedian. Like in this picture...she was getting a good laugh out of her sisters by biting the banana peel so she continued to do it over and over enjoying the attention.
She spends her play time taking care of her babies, cooking in her kitchen and feeding her babies, chasing her doggies and dressing up and stomping around the house in dress up shoes as loudly as she can.
She is outspoken (is that possible considering she doesn't really speak?) and stubborn and strong willed. She is also sweet and sensitive and silly.

A perfect example happened tonight. Mckenna hurt herself and was crying. Brooke ran from the other room to check out the situation. She came up to Mckenna and gave her a hug and then did a silly dance in front of her to get her to laugh.

She loves her "taggie" blanket and won't sleep without it...while sucking her right thumb, always the right. She is still a good eater but has unfortunately discovered junk food after Halloween and Christmas and seems a little less passionate about salads and veggies.

She isn't big on photos and is a moving target. Recently she has even started a game of peek-a-boo in order to avoid my camera.
She has the best belly laugh. You can't help but smiling when you hear it...I managed to get one on video while tickling her. We should all have a good belly laugh every day!
