Happy Year and a Half!! (18 months)

Happy Year and a Half, Isabelle!!!

You are growing up into a little girl now...it's unbelievable how fast this past 18 months have just gone by in a blink of an eye.

Your terrible twos have definitely started early. You are now throwing crazy tantrums! You fling yourself onto the floor (not caring where we are) and start screaming and kicking your feet. You even did this at the 99 Ranch Market! People were staring at you but you didn't care...you have no shame at all!

Lately in the past few months, the only time that you can sit down quietly is when you watch your favorite TV show, Ni Hao, Kai-Lan. You have picked up several words from that show in Chinese! Mommy's so proud of you. You now know how to say "ye ye" (grandpa), "ma yi" (ants) and "bao bao" (hug/carry). And the rest of the time, you are very busy...you are always busy! Mommy has given up cleaning up your toys during your nap because you really like everything better scattered on the floor in the living room, and you manage to undo all of my cleaning efforts in less than 2 mins after waking from your nap.

I see your other cuspids coming out...I think that's why you are not sleeping so well these nights. Due to this, your 2nd nap is back on some days. It's hard to schedule playdates when Mommy doesn't know if you will need a 2nd nap or not. Some days when you don't need a morning nap, you just roll around in your crib talking and singing to yourself. The other day, you managed to take off all your clothes, including your diaper. Daddy was shocked when he went to pick you up from your crib.

How I wish I could just bottle you up at this age. You are such a funny little person who cracks both Mommy and Daddy up and always leave us in stitches.

Love, Mom

Uh oh...BUSTED!! (Always getting into some mischief!)

We put you in time-out but it seems you are enjoying it.
