Nora Kate is now one and a half!!! On Valentine's Day she reached the 18 month mark! How it's possible, I'm not sure! BUT we are loving every minute of it!
She's getting more and more hair, and the back has curls!! AND she never has to wear a headband now, her bows clip right in to her hair! Now that she has more hair, I (sadly) think she is looking older.
Her brothers are her best friends. She LOVES them so much. She hugs, kisses, and pats them constantly. She and Carter have a really special relationship and they play together SO sweet, but she LOVES Dawson too and always checks to see what he's doing. She brings Dawson books and tries to sit on his lap to see if he can read them to her.
Her vocabulary continues to boom! She also loves to tell us "no" and has even started saying "nope" (where did this come from?!) obviously because one can only say "no" 2 million times in one day before getting tired and switching to nope. She knows a ton of body parts and loves to point them out and tell you what she's pointing to. A few favorites are toes, belly button, hands, ears, feet, eyes, nose (que jamming finger as far up nose as it goes), mouth, teeth, tongue, knee, and hair. Nora Kate likes to talk, and she likes to talk LOUDLY and be heard. She will just get louder and louder until she's the loudest-no matter what!
She loves to play silly with her brothers. If they're sitting on the floor she thinks this means she should climb on them and wrestle. Unfortunately they don't always think this is as much fun as she does, haha! Nora Kate will do ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING her brothers tell her to do. She thinks they hung the moon. The way she smiles at them and watches them, it's so sweet. I just want to keep them all just like this forever.
On occasion the boys do something she doesn't like, and boy does she let them know! She talks very loudly and swings her arms around, but really it's the looks she gives them. One morning at breakfast Dawson kept complaining, "Nora Kate is making a mean face at me." She was making a face at Dawson because she wasn't happy he had the toy at the table that she wanted! Oh, Nora Kate, you may be the smallest, but you sure let everyone know what you want! Nora Kate keeps us laughing in this way too, though! She's so little to have such big opinions.
One amazing thing to me is that she is more content than the boys ever were to sit and play while I cook or do a quick chore! Nora Kate has just gotten really in to her baby dolls and stroller too which is oh, so sweet!
Nora Kate enjoys bath time and has started putting her face in the water some-I'll be interested to see what she thinks of the pool this summer!!!
I will update this when she has her 18 month check up with her height and weight!
I love our precious Nora Kate! Here are the pictures!
