Brynlee at 16 months

Brynlee playing with the shoes

I watch Alyssa on Tuesday mornings (she is 1 year older than Brynlee). The girls call each other "baby" and Alyssa likes to hold Brynlee. Brynlee doesn't like it much.

Playing at the playground

Brynlee loves to be outside and just run around in the wide open spaces (that we don't have in our house).

What's funny is she hates touching grass and if she falls she won't put her hands in it and will just sit there until someone pulls her back up

Feeding the ducks

We had corn one night and she wanted the corn cob so I gave it to her after I only had a few bites. She ate the whole thing plus another corn cob.

The mess from eating licorice

Brynlee and her 3 elmo's

We got this little kitchen from D.I. for a couple of bucks. Brynlee sure has fun playing with it. Her favorite thing is putting the basket on her head.

At 16 months Brynlee can say:
Dog
Duck
Dad
Mom
Grandma
Ball
Whoa
Baby
Uh-oh
EIEIO

Milk

More

Shoe

Moo

I can't believe how fast she started talking. Some weeks she learned a new word every day. I love hearing her little voice, it is soo cute!

Loves books more than any kid in the world. Loves to pick up books and look at them and point out all the objects she knows like baby and ball. We have books all over the house. She used to love the ones that have sound with them, but lately she hasn't been too interested in them.

Loves hearing Old McDonald & Wheels on the Bus. Will walk around saying EIEIO and that means she wants to hear the song.

Can say some animal sounds such as the cow, monkey, and rooster. Sometimes when we ask, but usually just when she sees the animal.

Loves Elmo still (calls him baby)

Will point out every ball, baby, and dog she sees

Finally off of bottles and using sippy cups 100%. Once we got her off the bottles she doesn't seem to love milk quite as much. Which is fine with me because it is expensive her drinking it all day long.

Extremely independent-wont eat if she can't do it herself and wants to go up and down the stairs herself (even though she is not very good at it)

Has a tantrum about 100 times a day when she doesn't get what she wants

Can blow kisses. Loves to give real kisses to little kids like her cousins Jaxson & Tyson.

Will usually give us a love (hug) and a kiss when we ask.

Can eat with a fork and spoon (although very messy)

Loves bananas, oatmeal, yogurt, olives, cucumbers

Hates buffalo wing sauce (shocking right?)

Likes to twirl around in a circle and fall down

Loves to climb in boxes and on anything

She sure gives us a run for our money most days, but we love her!
