Tonight I took Josie out in the snow for just a moment. She just smiled and copied me by saying WOW! Then she reached her arms out and kept trying to catch the snow. It was so cute.
Poor Josie had to go to her doctors appt. for her 15 month check up. She received a clean bill of health. Her latest stats are: Weight...a whopping 19lbs!!! She is a tiny little thing. She is at the 7th percentile in her weight. Length...31 inches. She is in the 59th percentile for length.
She got three shots and was as brave as she could be. I hate having to see her cry like that. But she cheered up pretty quickly when I pulled out her Dumb-Dumb sucker! Score for Mommy!

Never a dull moment
My perfect little princess.
Just out for a Fall stroll, sporting her cool vest, and BabyLeg sleeves.
Such a cute outfit. She looks so big! I love her little L.L.Bean shoes. The sweater compliments of Auntie Adriana.
Just chillaxin with her buddy Logan.
Running as fast as her little legs will take her.
Such a big girl posing for the camera.
Again, such a poser.
Such a sweet sweet smile.
Our family.

Growing Up Too Fast
So Josie's latest new trick: About 2 days ago I was at the sink washing the dishes, which is the usual routine, while Josie is in the TV room playing with her toys and singing the "Hotdog" song from "Mickey Mouse's Clubhouse". I guess I should have prefaced this by saying she now knows how to open the entertainment unit which holds many dvds and cds. Anyhoo, she obviously was getting into it again because he came out of the TV room with CD in hand. I then asked, "Josie why do you have that?" She just looks at me and smiles. Then she proceeds to walk into the dining room where we keep the computer, and....I KID YOU NOT!!!!.....she THEN pushes the button to OPEN the DVD drive and places the CD into the drive....and then proceeds to close it!!!!! I am thinking WHAT???? So I walk over to her and say..."Josie can you give that to mommy?" She bends back over....pushes the button AGAIN...watches the drive open, picks the CD up, and hands it to me! I had no idea she knew how to do that! She is 15 months NOT 15 years!!!! She is silly!!! I am telling you she keeps me on my toes.
Another of her favorite things to do is climb up on the coffee tables. She is a little monkey. Also, she seems to find enjoyment in me chasing her around the house when I need to grab something from her. She just runs and laughs! It's hard not to laugh with her and make a game out of it. BUT sometimes Mommy REALLY doesn't want her to run....for example when she is holding a plate of my FINE CHINA in her hands. Grrrr!!!!
Let's see...what else...oh she has now learned how to use her charm. When Jeremy or I get on to her for anything...she puckers up her lips and tries to give us a kiss. Then she begins singing the "Itsy Bitsy Spider" while doing the motions. It's like she is saying "But Momma...Look how cute I am!"
Many have been asking what her vocabulary is like. Well here is a list of words she knows thus far: Momma, Dada, Rocco, Dutch, Cat, Dog, Please, Thank You, Nana, Milk, NO, Stop, Hotdog, Hot, Nose, Eyes, Mouth, Hey, Hi, Juice, Cracker, Up, Bye Bye, Baby, Done, Go, Night-Night,and sometimes the word Down.
She can sign the word "more" and thinks that if she does it longer and closer to my face then I will automatically fold and give her "more" of what she wants.
The animals she knows sounds for: monkey, dog, cat, tiger, fish (although this is more of a motion), cow, duck.
She can point to her: eyes, ears, nose, toes, and mouth.
We are working on the word Santa and what he says..."HO, HO, HO".
Her other new favorite song is "If Your Happy and You Know It." Too cute!
Now, I am not one who is up on the statistics of what a 15 month old should be capable of doing....but I'd have to say I think Josie is coming along just fine.
