a year and a half?!?!

oh my goodness!!! i honestly can't believe my baby is a year and a half years old....TODAY!!! she is getting so big so fast! it almost makes me sad! she's getting to be a little turkey! she get's into ANYTHING and EVERYTHING!!! she will take a couple steps on her own if she knows im in front of her to catch her. ha ha. stubborn little thing that's for sure! we went to her 18 month well check today and dr g was VERY happy with where she was at on the charts. my baby FINALLY broke the 20lb mark!!!! 20lbs 7oz to be exact! :) yay!!! what a big girl!!! :) there was just one thing that was kind of a slight worry to him tho....her speech....or lack thereof! she basically only says "dada". she knows 5 signs that i taught her but other than that....nothin! i was worried about it so i asked him what he thought about it. he said that she should be speaking almost 20 words! :( he gave me a couple "homework assignments" to work on with her for the next 3 months and if that doesn't work then we have to take it to the next level and get an MRI done. :( i am hoping and praying that we don't have to take this route. we have 3 months for her to "blossom" to at least 12 words or more. she can do it! she's beaten MANY odds so far so why not this one?! she'll do it. i know she will. :) other than that she is doing great!!! she has quite the personality. :) we just love her to PIECES!! :) i have a lot of pic on my phone but don't have time to send them over so here's what ya get! :) she had her very first haircut and i did it. being a hairdresser and all i thought i could pull it off. yep! not doin that one again! ha ha ha. she was SO WIGGLY that she looked like harry on dumb and dumber. so sad! poor thing! thank goodness it grows fast and she is already due for another one! :) here are a couple recent pics!
