Niamh is 15 months old

At least she was a month ago. The time goes by so quickly. sigh. Dr. Moore said she looks perfect. She is still tiny (1st percentile for weight, 47th for height) but he is not at all concerned, and she is such a healthy and happy girl.

likes:
drawing
music, the itsy bitsy spider in particular
books ("reeead! book! up, up!" she is insatiable.)
anything Sis is doing
going outside
being up high
dress up
bath time
cats (she does the funniest meow-squeal when she sees a cat, even in a book)

dislikes:
bibs
bedtime
coming inside
closed doors

She has had a word explosion lately, and I can't possibly keep track. She is at the point where she learns several new words every day. It is a blast. She has learned some of her shapes, colors and letters just by playing, and seems really exited about that. Kathryn has taught her to say cold sore and turd. Oh, thank you. My favorite new words she says are Dee-ee (Sissy), NeeNee (what she calls herself), happy, and home.

Every day she grows and changes, and every day she fills my heart to overflowing with joy.
