18 Months Old




Isla turned 18 months old yesterday - and she is a full blown toddler. She has attached herself to this hot pink blankie "buh-bankie" as she calls it and doesn't go anywhere without it. 

She loves the slides, especially climbing up them. All I say at the playground is "Isla, up the stairs, down the slide." over and over. 

She is pretty much a greeter wherever she goes. "Hiiii.....Hiiiii" Then they say hi back and she tells them "Noooo!" 

Balloons are favorite. They even compete with Buh-bankie. 

She doesn't like bread. She picks everything out of the middle. PB&J, tuna, ham, cheese. She doesn't touch the carbs. 

Loves puppies. Any puppy be it really big (like cousin st. bernard, Sheeba) or super tiny like our neighborhood chihuahua. She can't get enough of dogs and loves to pet them, praise them, catch their tails, and even to my disgust, give kisses. I'm telling you she LOVES dogs. 

We're working on not pinching other kids...yeah she get's super frustrated and pinches their arm. I know it's a phase, but goodness it's a hard phase because she hurts other kids. 

She gives us kisses, tells us "I YUV Oooo" = I love you. Gives hugs, and tickles us when we are least expecting it. Like when Mommy is doing dishes and can't move anywhere because my hands are soaking wet. She's thinks it hilarious. Then runs away before I have time to dry my hands and tickle her back. 

We love her :)
