Growing Up Fast

I am already16 months old and growing fast, a real toddler not a baby anymore! My first birthday already seems a long time ago- if you missed it you can see some pictures here. I have been walking since I was just nine months old, and just love to be moving. I like to dance, run, climb and I've almost figured out how to jump! I am also learning to talk and already have about a dozen words , in Spanish, English and baby-ish. I said my first words at 11 months- ta and Dada (but much to Mummy's disappointment I have only just learned to say Mama at 15 months!).
There are plenty of pictures of me, and even some video in my photo album... but here is a couple of Mummy's favourites.





My favorite toys- Dolly, Neigh (horse soft toy), books
My favorite people- Mummy and Papi of course, Aunty Debbie and Grandma
What makes me laugh- Bouncing on the bed with Dada, chasing animals (espeically Grandma's old cat and dog...)
What makes me cry- Not much unless I'm tired, hungry or sore from teething.
My newest skills- Climbing (stairs, boxes, onto chairs), using a spoon, and I'm working hard at learning to put my shoes on.
My word list- My first words are ta, dada, up, agua (water), dolly, teddy, bath, car, shoes, pan (bread), mama, oof oof (dog), cat, neigh (horse)
I really enjoy- Music and dancing, Spanish playgroup, Baby Einstein DVD's, "reading" books
I really don't like- Mashed veges, being shut inside the house for too long, the vacuum cleaner.
My favourite foods- Pears, grapes and strawberries, broccoli, cheese, bacon, pasta
