Nolee 18 months 2 weeks and 5 days

My how you are growing so quickly these days

You are in 2T clothing and some 3T as well

You RUN everywhere

and you have one of the cutest litle runs I've ever seen

you look like a mini little speed walker

You are funny

hiliarious actually

you can mimick most any facial expression

and do so often to get us to laugh

You loved to be tickled

and repeatedly ask us to do it again ("gain")

You love to give kisses

any type of kisses

big smooches

slobbery kisses

blowing kisses

 and just making kissey sounds

Your hair is finally long enough to put

it up in a partial ponytail

which is nice because you still won't keep barretts in

for more than 10 minutes top

Your favorite word is NO

and "uh" means yes (even though you can say "yes")

You love playing with your babies

and your sister

You guys make believe for hours

and get along most of the time

You sleep in a big girl bed

and can now climb out of your big girl bed

and do so every morning at 4:45

with a very proud big girl smile

and come in and wake us up

so you can climb into our bed

You can swing in the big girl swing

and will repeatedly request a "poosh"

and scare the crap out of me

when you lean back

and giggle

You run to me when I pick you up daycare

shouting "Mommy!"

which is the best part of everyday

then you run away when I tell you it's time to go home

You have two of the cutest dimples I've ever seen

and can con pretty much anything out of anyone

when you flash those

You like being able to do everything Lilly does

You are part monkey and climb on everything

You are getting into books more and more each day

and have even taken to "reading" them to us

You love being outside

and like swimming in Nana's pool

You have some of the best dance moves

and some amazing hip action

I can't wait to see you in action at Grant's wedding

I'm so sad that you are no longer a "baby"

but I'm so happy and excited to see you grow and learn

every day

I love seeing your face light up when you conquer something new

or your sleepy face when you first wake up

We are so blessed to have you!
