18 months ago !!

Update:
It has already been 18 months since Natalie has been home with us...wow time goes by so
quickly..
Here is an update on the changes she has made..
Natalie is 27 lbs now..she was 19.8
she is 35 3/4 in. tall...she was 29 in tall!!
She wears a 2T in clothes, although she can still wear 18 months in crop pants or shorts, too tall for long pants. Her foot has grown allot she wears a size 7.5 in shoes..we always said she had big feet and hands??
Natalie has a very creative imagination..she make believes all the time..most of the time she is playing school or church school (Sunday school)..she likes playing with play-doh ,packing anything and everything into bags, backpacks, bags, boxes..or anything that will hold her stuff..it is pretty funny what she can get into small things?? she also likes reading books..if you tell her the name of the book..she will go and find it for you to read to her. Her vocabulary is unbelievable..she can say and talk about anything..but she does not say her "K's" for example for Kiss she says "piss" she says "N" for her F's like for fish she says "nish"..but everything else is pretty clear? We think that is pretty good for only speaking English for 18 months?

She also likes to go see her MeMe and Papa...my dad is in the nursing home, and we visit allot..all the people there just love her and she loves them back..(not crazy about them kissing and hugging her) but she likes it most of the time...she makes them smile and that's what it is all about??

She likes to play outside also..we are outside every chance we get..the zoo is an all time favorite..especially the elephants..she has always like them!!! I found out this week ...I don't think she will like gardening...she helped me plant some seeds, and all I heard was..my hands are dirty? I need a wipie? I guess she needs some gardening gloves.

She is such a joy for us..she makes us laugh all the time..and everyone else too..I don't even remember what is was like before Oct. 28th 2007??
