Oh where has the time gone? The girls are now 18 months old! I can't believe they are so big, no longer my babies....toddlers! They have changed so much in the past 6 months it is crazy! 12 to 18 months is the hardest time in the Corbitt house, something about the transition from baby to toddler and the communication problems just makes it hard for me, but we survived and are having more and more fun everyday. It's funny how with Grayson I noticed every new word or milestone, but not this time, not only do I have Grayson that I am watching, but remembering which girl can say or do what is hard! The girls are so different in looks and personality!
Elizabeth Grace
She is in the 80% for weight at 26.8 and the 93% for Height
She is by far my most challenging child! She challenges everything from the time she gets out of bed until the moment we put her down. She is taller than a lot of 18 month olds and thinks she is 3 like her big brother so she tries everything. She can open every door in our house, including the bathroom (the most frustrating). She is learning new words, but likes to point and grunt (probably because Grayson responds, knowing exactly what she wants). Her favorite word is Nooo and she uses it a lot, she can also say mama, dada, poppy, and her other favorite Adam. She loves her uncle Adam and starts yelling his name and trying to get to him as soon as she sees him. She is Grayson's shadow always wanting to stay with him. She is very caring and sweet, loves to share (most of the time) with Olivia, especially her food. She is very active and always in to something, but that is what makes her funny! She is loving Wiggles like her big brother, she goes crazy dancing to their songs. She defiantly has her daddy's love of music.
Olivia Faith
is in the 18% for weight and 10% for Height (I really think she is two months behind on everything including growth)
She is my easiest child! She is content and happy most of the time. She looks so innocent, but is not by any means. She seems to be a couple of months behind Elizabeth in most things, but in language she is ahead. She says so many words...Mama (her favorite), dada, blankie, banana, night night, luv ya, poppy, nana (what she calls my mother),adam and I am sure there are others. She has started really paying attention to me and trying to copy things I say. She is also answering my questions with yes and no, making it a little easier for me to know what she wants. She is still like her mommy and loves her sleep! If she is not sleeping, something is hurting! Olivia is spending the most time in time out these days because she is biting, this is the only way I know to try and break this habit, she does well sitting there, but it makes me sad that she bites (granted when it's Lizzie she bites it is usually deserved). I love watching her many expressions she makes and right now she has a look that she gives everyone that makes me laugh!
I am enjoying watching both of the girls personalities develop each day! I try to just sit back and take it all in because it is going so fast. I love that two girls born at the same time looking a lot alike can now be so different. When I am just sitting watching them play I think about what my grandmother always said about Grayson. She would always ask me if I was taking movies of him so I could go back and watch it later on. And yes I am trying to take as many "movies" as possible!
