18 months old!

Our baby girl is already 18 months old - time flies! John and I decided to take the day off to spend the day with Bella. We began the morning with her 18 month checkup. It went very well. Bella weighed in at 26 pounds and 4 ounces (70th percentile) and is 33 inches tall (90th percentile). She passed the "Baby Olympics" (that is what our pediatrician calls it) with flying colors. She did "Head, shoulders, knees, and toes" and "Wheels on the Bus." She also did her animal sounds and gave an impressively loud scream when she had her 3 shots. :(

Bella was excited about being 18 months old! She also had a fine time playing with Daddy while we waited for the nurse to come back in to give her the shots.


Then we headed over to Montgomery Mall to get family portraits and 18 month shots of Bella at Sears. She did better than I expected, but would NOT stand still for a standing shot. Everytime we told her to stand up, she did and then promptly started running around. Running is her new favorite activity! After the pictures, we ate lunch at Legal Seafood (yuck for Mommy!) and then headed home for nap time...ahhhh. Here are a few pics from the photo shoot!
