Dear Kaci,

My little 16 month old !! Can you believe it? i really can't !! This month has really flown by and I know its only going to go faster the bigger you get. My sweet angel this month you have done so many new things its hard for mommy to keep track anymore. First is, of course, YOU FINALLY WALKED !!! I mean seriously you walked around the entire house like you had been walking for years haha. Then you fell and I think it scared you and now you will only walk holding my hand. Which is fine cause boy do I love holding your hand. I can't think of a better way to walk around :). You also have been peeing and pooping in the potty. Now for a 16 month old that is huge !! You are in pull ups and you are LOVING being a big girl. Everytime you pee or poop in the potty it sings and you start clapping your hands and dancing and say YAAAAAAAAY !! And then like every parent who has seen look who's talking too does...We dance around the house singing "Pee Pee in the pottttaaaaay" Lol its a lot of fun and you are getting so good at it. The last 2 days I have literally changed 3 pee pee diapers and 2 of those are from when you were sleeping overnight so that you can't help yet and then the other was because we were at walmart and I couldnt get you to go in the big potty so you peed in the pull up which is fine because seriously I will change 1 pee pee diaper as opposed to like 6-10 depending on what you eat and drink haha. Funny story tonight me,you, and Mimi were in walmart and I tried to get you to pee in the big potty since of course we dont travel with your potty and well needless to say I was bending down to put your pull up back on you and you sort of fell in the toilet. Like you didn't submerge or anything and you barely got wet but yes you fell in the toilet at walmart. Sorry bunny I really felt bad but now I can laugh about it. You also have learned a new favorite word. "WOW" You just absolutely love saying it and say it constantly along with "baby". You got a cool new toy tonight. Its a turtle you sit on and bouce and rock back and forth and man do you love it !! We got home late so you didn't get to play with it that long cause bedtime was pretty much the minute we got home after dinner but tomorrow I guarantee lots of time on the turtle. Mimi buys you so many toys you are so spoiled. I swear you have the most toys I have ever seen a kid have and you literally would rather play with my cell phone or a 2 dollar ball lol. But thats okay. You are so loved bunny. Everyone who meets you falls in love and I can't say that I blame them I mean I fell in love with you before I ever even seen you. You are a charmer. Well my angel...its late and mommy and daddy are going to bed. We love my darling sleep tight my little toddler. I just can't believe you are growing up so fast. I want to slow time somehow. I think I will go give you a kiss before I get in bed and look at you sleeping...like the little angel that you are. I love you.

Mommy
