15 months!

Finley is 15 months today. I forgot how much fun toddlers are! She is learning and growing everyday and it is so much fun to watch. She is also getting to the stage where it's hard to take her places because she doesn't want to sit in her stroller or be held. She wants to be down exploring and touching and tasting everything. I remember when Tyler was about this age and we just quit going out because he did not want to sit in the high chair or his stroller. Hopefully we can get through this stage with Finley without becoming hermits, but she is pretty strong willed and if she wants to get out of that high chair, by God she is going to get out of that high chair!

What she loves:
-Climbing on everything! We have to make sure they chairs are pushed up to the table because she is bad about climbing up on the table and standing up. She also tried to jump of the armrest of the couch last night, but I caught her.
-Baby Goldfish
-Sneaking into Tyler's room because she knows he doesn't want her in there!
-Opening doors, she can open all the bedroom doors now!
-Playing outside
-Trying on our shoes
-Talking on the phone
-Music and dancing

I love to watch her walk. She doesn't walk like a baby anymore and she swings one of her arms. It is so cute! I also love when she gives hugs and she makes the sound. You know when you hug a baby and you go ohh ohh or something like that, anyway, she does that. I also love that she has brought so much happiness into our home. Not that we weren't happy before, but I'm always smiling when she is around and she does something every few minutes to make us laugh.

She still doesn't sleep all night. Some nights are better than others, but she usually wakes up four or five times a night. 

She goes to the doctor Friday for her 15 month check-up and I can't wait to see how much she has grown.
