Eighteen Months

 18 Months

• What a fun month for us. Grandma and Papa Price came out to visit and help out with Maggie's Harry Potter birthday party. I would say you had fun at the party, but reality is, you slept through all of it. You warmed up to Papa because he fed you treats when you sat on his lap.
• You are getting so playful. I love watching you wrestle with dad and the big kids. You will go up to Dad and "tickle" his legs. 
• You have a random obsession with rags with month. You are constantly sneaking into your bathroom and grabbing a handful of wash clothes as if they are your lovey. Then they end up dropped throughout the house, so you know how much I love that.
• Probably the best thing of the month was going to Florida!!! It was awesome. It started off really rough with you throwing up all over yourself on white bird hill and several more times along the windy road. I threw away your outfit it was bad. I thought you would fall asleep on the drive down, but you didn't, and a normally 4 hour trip turned into a 9 hour trip. The flight with you wasn't fabulous either. I finally got you to fall asleep on the floor on the plane, but the flight attendant made me take you back to the seat which lead to more crying. After that, the trip was great. We stayed right on the beach. The first half of the week, we were in Pensacola Beach and the weather was great. We met up with our friends a lot, who had two boys. We made it to a fun splash pad with us girls. We also went to the zoo where we fed the birds, goats, and giraffe. I think we hung out at the hot tub at least once, if not twice a day ( a big hit with you). Last year, you didn't like the sand, but this year, it is your favorite. The second half of the week, we were in Destin. We took the bigger kids go carting. We also rented a boat and rode around the bay. It was a colder day, but we still managed to jump off the side and see jelly fishes. We also saw dolphins! We ate a ton of seafood. I know that you will be too young to remember this trip, but you really did have fun and one of the best parts of vacations is seeing you guys experience these things for the first time. 
• Easter was this month. It was the day after we got home late, so I feel bad that we didn't do too much prep for it. You did enjoy finding the eggs, and definitely enjoyed eating the candy. We got you a new Fancy Nancy book.
• Grandma and Papa Matthews got to come up for a weekend after we got home from vacation. They watched you kiddos over night so Dad and I could have some time together in Boise. I was so nervous because we have never left you over night with someone. You did great. You loved Papa Matthews so much. The moment that they got here, you ran up and wanted him to hold you. I don't know what makes you like one person and not the other, but it made they feel so special that you choose them to like.
