16 Months & Duck Ponds

Today is Lennon's 16 month birthday!  I can't believe it's been 2 YEARS since I got pregnant with her, it's been a long time since then and I've loved every single minute of it - even the ones where my child has a temper tantrum and smacks me in the face D:

Anyways, here are some things she is doing lately:

• WALKING!!!! [this was between 15 and 16 months]
• Saying "please" and "thank you" in the correct context
• Telling me when she's pooped
• Trying to eat with the correct silverware
• Cleaning up her toys
• Telling me when she's ready for "night night"
• She is OBSESSED with Elmo and Mickey Mouse right now
• Figuring out how her toys work [like her busy ball popper]
• Having tea parties with Nana or Mama

Today we went to the Duck Pond in Anthem with my best friend Kim and her 2 year old, Madison.  We walked there [I'm pretty sure it's 2.5 miles from Kim's house to the park] with the girls in Madison's wagon.  The girls LOVED it, though Leni did get super cranky on the cold walk home [no afternoon nap = super fussy toddler]
