18 months... Time for Nursery!!

My beautiful little Evie-Cakes is 18 months old!! I keep calling her my baby, but every day I'm realizing I can't really say that any more, she's getting to be such a big girl!


  • Evie now weighs 19.4 lbs (which now puts her in the 10th-ish percentile), which means she has gained about a pound since her 12 month appointment, lol. She is 31.9 inches tall, which means she has grown 2 inches since her 16 month appointment (putting her in the 52nd percentile for height). So she's skinny!!
  • She's a climber!! She's ALWAYS climbing on things... I don't know if there's really anything else to say about that, lol. I think we've got a natural born rock climber on our hands (she takes after her daddy!!)
  • She loves to push her stroller around... It's been forever since we've been able to get her in it, but she likes to take it for walks. It's adorable watching her push a stroller that's more than twice her height.
  • She loves to share her toys with other kids, except for mommy's phone and the kindle... those she's decided are hers.
  • Evie knows a TON of words. I was keeping track up to about 75 words... and then I gave up. That was a couple of months ago, it seems like she says new words everyday! She loves to shout out the names of all the things she knows, which is a lot, so she's generally talking up a storm, haha!
  • She's just recently started to use two word sentences like "go outside", "get chocolate", and "cute baby"
  • She can name 21 of her letters! She loves to point out all the letters she knows every time she sees them. She knows, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, N, O, P, R, S, T, U, W, X, Z!
  • She knows a few of her colors, she's usually pretty good with yellow, blue, and green, and sometimes she can get red.
  • She started counting to 10 (minus the number 7) about 2 weeks ago... But then in the last few days she's decided that she has favorite numbers and now counts "2, 3, 6, 8, 9, 10"
  • She's still very into Yo Gabba Gabba and Finding Nemo, however she recently discovered the movie Cars... She really likes cars (she has a couple of hotwheels she plays with and she likes to point out all the real cars on the street) and I think she must have seen the preview for Cars 2 on her Tangled movie, and so she's been pretty into that one lately.
  • She really likes to stack blocks! I can't remember what her record is, but I know she can stack at least 7 blocks pretty consistently.

18 months also means... Nursery!!! I feel like she's needed nursery since she was about 11 months old, so I'm pretty darn excited about this! Karl went and stayed with her the whole time (he couldn't leave her, lol!) and she seemed to have a good time, she did look for dad a few times to make sure he was there, but she was pretty good. We have a TON of nursery kids and there are a lot of kids who are bigger than her, but I'm hoping she'll be okay :)
