Vivian is 18 month old! (May 28th)

One of my favorite outfits - I am glad it was still cool here so she could wear this to church last week.  

And...she ate a stamp, well, licked a stamp.  This crazy girl!

Vivian does well to keep up with Shelby.  She wants to do everything that Shelby is doing.  They play well together and we enjoy watching them.

Vivian, there are so many things we love about you! Here are a few ~ We love...
  • how happy you are to see the three of us in the morning
  • how you say "Hi" to us (and everyone else) all throughout the day
  • how you try to wink
  • how you hug us
  • how you have learned to hold your baby dolls and "shush" them
  • how much you talk! Even though it is gibberish right now.  You are so very serious and shake your head "yes" afterwards, as if to say, "You with me?"
  • how you dance
  • how you love to pray with us before a meal 
  • how you hold our hands and bow your head to pray
  • how you clap at the end of saying a prayer
  • how you wave "bye" to us at night before bedtime and give kisses
  • how you imitate animals sounds (really only bears, lions and tigers as you say ARRGGHH!)
  • how you say Please "dg" and Thank you "tn u" 
  • the way you talk: momma, dada, shoe, hi, that, go, get - and I think that's about it.  The last two words you know because we tell them to the cats.  Haha.  Mostly you just say: momma!
  • the way you rock on your blue horse and the wood horse
  • love, love to hear you sing!  You and Shelby sound sooo good together!

We love you, Vivian Ruth!  You are sweet in the way you love your sister; you learn very quickly from watching her and it is precious.  You like to eat supper porridge, cheese, carrots, bread, bananas, macaroni & cheese and a few other things.  ;)  You like to drink water and that's about it!  Unless Daddy makes some yummy chocolate milk, or there is milk left in your cereal bowl and then you'll drink that. You do well playing with others and sharing.  You like to jump in your crib and on Shelby's bed.  You do well feeding yourself.  We enjoy watching you grow!
