18 MONTHS

That's right, you heard me, Davy is 18 months and two weeks to be exact. She has changed soo much over the past 6 months.

First off, as you can tell from the pictures, Davy is a total chunk now. She has gained 7 pounds over the summer. SEVEN POUNDS!! She has far surpassed her weight goal set by her nutritionist. In June she was in the 10th percentile for her weight and now she is in the 75th!! She weighs 24 1/2 pounds!!! She is also 80th in her height. Talk about a growth spurt.

If she were allowed, I think she would eat all day. She takes after her Momma. Anytime she sees food she comes a crawlin.

She has started to babble. She says gaga, mamamama and bababa. She makes the cutest pterodactyl squawk when she is really happy, like when Daddy comes home.

She is in speech therapy twice a week and can now sign please, more and all done. It is so cute when she signs please, it's usually for food. It kinda breaks your heart cuz any time you eat something she looks at you desperately and signs pleeeeease!

She loves babies. When ever she sees her cousin Harvey, she pats him(sometimes too hard) and says, awwwww. Just last Sunday she gave him a kiss! It was her very first kiss. I have been trying to smooch her ever since but she is just not that into me. She only has eyes for chubby babies.

Davy has recently turned into a baby Hurricane. She leaves a path of destruction where ever she goes. She loves to pull books off of shelves, products out of cupboards and pull anything off the table she can reach. She also loves to throw whatever electronic she can get her hands on, the remote control being her favorite. She loves it when the batteries explode out of it, it's like she won a prize.

Davy is not walking yet but she pulls herself to a stand and will cruise while holding onto furniture. I feel confident that she will be walking by the end of the year. Physical therapy twice a week has been really beneficial for her. We've seen the most progress in this area.
My least favorite Davy quality is that she barely naps. It's mommy torture. She pretty much sleeps like 25 minutes. SO ....kind of a bummer.

And don't be fooled by her cute bow and pigtails cuz she will not leave anything in her hair. I have lost so many cute clips, it's killing me. Please tell me this is a phase.
My favorite thing about Davy is how happy she is. She really is so happy and loving most all of the time. She gives me the best hugs and then pats my back and says, awwww. She will always give you a big smile and a wave, unless you are her ENT trying to look in her ears, then she will rip your face off.

We recently saw Davy's genetics Doctor and she was pretty much shocked by how well Davy is doing. Dr. Z told me that Davy had far surpassed anything she had ever hoped for her.

Wow, it only took Davy 18 months to prove her Doctors wrong. Way to go Davygirl.
