To my sweet Aria, you are becoming quite the little lady and less of a baby! Babbling all the time to anyone who will listen. We love to hear your pronunciation of your words. Daddy likes that when you call for him, you have a slight British accent. It’s so fun to hear what you have learned already! Finally you have some hair starting to fill in and grow. We have been able to do some small ponytails and even a set of the most darling pigtails. Give mom some time to practice and we will create some cute hairstyles together. Holidays have come and you are definitely more interested this year. Halloween costume this year was a black cat and you made sure to thank everyone for your candy from trick or treating. Thanksgiving we spent with the Stokes side of the family. We enjoyed the company and swimming in the condo pool. Christmas is defiantly more exciting with you! Unwrapping the presents was a lot of fun for you and you didn’t care if they were for you or not to unwrap. We will be able to take a mommy and me dance class starting in January and I am so excited. I hope you come to love dance as much as I have through the years. Officially 18 months old means that you can now attend nursery. It will take a little getting use to, but I think once you discover the toys and snacks you will love it. You are so fun to play with and love to laugh. We color, play princesses, run and jump, tickle, and dance. You are recognizing new characters like Moana and the Grinch who stole Christmas. It’s a little sad that you are closer now to 2 years than my 1 year old but what a beautiful lady you are becoming. Statistics Height: 32 in (48%) and Weight: 21lbs 8oz (30%) wearing size 12-18 month clothing. You sleep through the night just fine about 10-11 hours with one nap during the day. Couldn’t be more proud of our girl. We Love you Aria.
