LIA AT 15 MONTHS

our sweet lia at 15 months:

- she waves and claps and high fives and gives the best open mouth kisses

- she follows her brother everywhere, and is always trying to do whatever he does 

- she loves snack food and treats and regularly refuses to eat her meal so she can eat cheez-its and fruit snacks instead

- she has the biggest sweet tooth i've ever seen. if luc earns a treat, he has to eat it in hiding. if i want to drink a diet pepsi, i have to hide it in a dark cup, and sip it when she's not looking. it's nuts.

- she says 'mama,' 'dada,' 'hi,' 'no,' and 'agua'

-she is very meticulous and has excellent fine motor skills. she can already correctly use utensils to eat with, and prefers them over her hands. she loves to take all the fridge magnets off, place them in a tupperware bowl, and then put them all back on the fridge, over and over. she plays with her toys very methodically and carefully, and can stay busy with a single toy for long periods of time. she is pretty content and can play on her own happily, which is amazing. the only time she struggles is when she wants whatever toy luc has and he won't give it to her. {which happens often haha}

- she is super happy... until she's not. haha she's quite dramatic and can go from giggling to full-blown tantrum in an instant. she throws herself on the floor and rolls around, crying, looking up occasionally to make sure we're watching. she also has some awesome scowly faces that she pulls when she doesn't get her way.

- her favorite foods {besides treats and snacks} are milk, eggs, pancakes, and mashed potatoes. she still doesn't eat a single vegetable {do potatoes count?} and the only fruits she likes are bananas and apples. 

- she loves to bring me books and sit on my lap for a story. she absolutely hates it when i close a door between us {like to go to the bathroom} and will cry hysterically until i come out. she has the biggest crocodile tears, and will cling to me, hiccuping, like we've been separated for eons. she still has pretty intense stranger danger, and can be very shy, but is a big goof around her family.

we sure do love our lia girl! she makes us laugh and we love her snuggles and her big green eyes. we are pretty smitten with her and are so happy she's ours!
