# Eliza # Milestones

Eliza {Eighteen Months}

Our little lady is quickly leaving the baby stage and has become a full blown toddler. She's 18 months y'all...going on 18 years!
18 Months Old

Eating: That fun picky toddler eater has invaded my home. Bean is opinionated about her food choices, but at least she can let me know what she likes and doesn't like (or thoroughly enjoyed the day before and has become poison today!). Her favorites are yogurt, cheese, crackers, fruit, eggs, and mac n cheese of course. Veggies are hard! We weaned shortly after her first birthday and she truly did not have trouble at all!

Sleeping: My girl sleeps from about 7pm-7am. On a good day, she takes one 2.5 hour nap. She loves her Mickey Mouse, Seahorse, and 2 sassies (pacifiers) to go to sleep!

A picture is worth a thousand words

Skills: Eliza started walking between 13-14 months and hasn't looked back! She tries hard to keep up with big sister, and truly thinks she's a big kid, too. We can understand most of her words, and her vocabulary grows every day. She can easily follow directions, and enjoys helping out (for now!).

Teeth: A total of 12, with 4 more poking through. It must be hard to be a baby...whew!


Happy Times: Our boo loves going outside, coloring, washing hands, and watching Mickey Mouse. In general, she's still a pretty easygoing kiddo. Eliza is a climber, and really just enjoys doing anything that Peyton is doing.

 Unhappy Times: The 18 month old tantrums have taken over. Eliza has dealt with quite a few ear infections lately, and it seems that there are days she's just moody and irritable. Just a phase....


Stats: 22 lbs, wearing 18-24 month clothing


Oh Eliza Cate,
 You keep us on our toes these days, for sure! As Peyton so nicely puts it, you are "nothing but trouble." Even though you are in to EVERYTHING, I know it's just your way of exploring your world and testing those boundaries. I love watching you learn new things every day. Keep loving life sweet girl!
