Randomness

This is random... a random post...

I was going to post about my daughter being 17 months, but I haven't done it for so many months that I thought that might be odd, and figured I should just wait until she's 18 months. But I have so much I want to remember! Like today, when she started 'blowing kisses' at me while playing with her cheerios. She did it later on in the day, too. It was adorable! And then when she was playing with daddy's cell phone. We have a video of it... I'll have to put it on the computer later. She was saying 'hi' into the cell phone! And then talking in that jibber jabber of hers, and laughing at something too... no idea what, but apparently the 'other person' told a joke or something. Adorable. I just wanted to squish her! And she's teething yet again. Everything is going into the mouth to aid in breaking out those teeth. She's not terribly fussy or upset, though, which is nice. And she has 4 molars. Four! It all happened so fast! Within about one week I went from noticing her first to noticing that she had four of them! How did that happen? And she still only has two of her bottom front teeth (which is kind of funny... makes her look less toddler-ish... is that even a word?).

She's started saying 'hi' when people walk in the door, and she's super excited to see other kids her age. So excited that her face is all grin, so much that her eyes are almost shut and her dimples take over! And she loves her grandparents. Her Grandpa came down the other day to bring over some paperwork, and was just in for a few minutes. She ran right to him and wanted to be held. Then when he had to go, she would NOT let me take her. She did NOT want him to leave. He was beaming. It was the sweetest thing! I think it may be because she didn't think he was over long enough, ha ha. It happened again today, too.

And then there's the belly button. She must inspect her belly button. Such a strange thing, that button is!

I can hardly believe how big she is getting. She is going through a bit of a growth spurt, and I think it's time to find 12-18 month clothes for her soon. I have very little. Lots of size 2T, and lots of size 6-12months. I have a few size '12 month' pants and shirts, and 2 sleepers. They seem to be similar to size 12-18mo when comparing. We'll see how this goes. I may be visiting the local MCC for a few things soon enough. She shot up 2 cm in only two weeks!

Then there's the other little nameless one. We have yet to decide on names... boy or girl. I need to start getting a few things ready for the munchkin-to-come... and I want to do some baking and cooking to prepare our house (and freezer) for my being 'out of commission', just in case. It happened last time. I couldn't do much but sleep for a few weeks after M was born. And this time I won't have much in terms of sleep available for me. We'll see how it goes, but I'm hoping to make my job so much easier by having meals ready made.

Anyway, the dryer just quit, meaning my fabric for baby blankets should be dry (I heard it's best to pre-wash the fabric before sewing). So, I will end this random post... which isn't really so random.

Have a great weekend!
