I took her in for her 18 month old visit today and she was such a good girl! Everyone in the office loves her. We had to see a different Dr. today because Mya's regular one is out on maternity. All the nurses fell right in love. They were actually fighting about who got to come in and give her the shots cause they all wanted to play with her. Like always she was not a fan of the shots but the sweet little nurse brought her 2 suckers and the second she saw those the tears stopped. We had to of course open both suckers one for each hand. She even gave the nurse a high five and a big smile! She doesn't hold grudges! On the way home she was shaking her finger saying "no no shots" then doing the sign language for "all done". I am so glad they have nice nurses, a fish tank and suckers! Even though she gets shots every time we go and hates them she always loves everything else about the Dr.

New actions:
- She is running now not just walking!
- She climbs on everything

- She is going up and down stairs like a pro
- She now tells me when she is poopy......usually this is not necessary we can smell her right away! ;)
- Knows almost all her body parts (she calls her boobs "boo boos" hmmm guess who taught her that one?)
- Loves helping me clean and fold laundry...hopefully this skill sticks around!
- Loves drawing and putting stickers on things including herself.
- Loves looking at the pictures on my phone and watching videos of herself on there too.
- She does a lot more with her toys now too by making noises with them or walking dolls
across her table or floor.
She is just all around getting so smart!! Too smart! We love her and she brings the very most amount of joy into our lives! The last 18 months have been the best months ever for us.
