16 months and 3 days

I had planned to write this Monday on their 16 month birthday, but got distracted. So, the girls are 16 months old. Can't beleive it...as I say this every month that goes by. The things they do are reminding me less and less that they are babies and more and more that they are toddlers. Their language has increased and Maddison has begun to say 2 word phrases like "Hi Sissy" or "Hi Dada" and loves to say "bye bye" and wave. On top of her speaking, Cameryn is doing a lot of sign language which always helps the communication process. Lots of running, climbing, kicking and throwing balls. The all time favorite activity is still probably reading/books. Also something that has come with toddlerhood is the hitting. Maddison gets frustrated easily and often takes it out on Cameryn or whatever still object that is near. I always knew she would be our drama queen. So we do our best to correct and redirect. Here are a few pictures from Sunday at the Magic House. Enjoy the rest of the dog days of summer!
