Norah turned 18 months old on August 5th! I know everyone says this, but I really can't believe we are now closer to Norah's 2nd birthday than her 1st. One of her big things this past month has been her vocabulary, it really exploded this past month. I think she tries to say almost any word you ask her to say. Some of her words are "help me", Ky-Ky (for Kyler), mommy, daddy, Max (my parent's dog), cheese, mama (for her pacifier), banana, apple, "umm" (for yes), drink, apple juice, bee bee (for belly button), baby, eye, and nose. Those are just some that come to me off the top of my head. :) She says new words every day and talks so much more than Kyler ever did at this age.
Norah still has 12 teeth, all four front ones-top and bottom-and her four molars. We are still waiting on her four eye teeth, and I think they are starting to work their way up because of all the drool she has been having. Norah is doing well with taking one nap a day now, she usually sleeps for about 2-2 1/2 hours in the afternoon. Norah's hair is also getting quite long. I don't want to cut it yet-even her bangs, I want to let them grow. But that means we have to do something to it all the time, otherwise it's in her eyes and she ends up tipping her head up to try to look through it, or pushing it out of her eyes all the time. You can see how long it is in one of the pictures below. At her 18 month appointment, Norah weighed 21 lbs 4 oz, and was 32" long.
Norah is continuing to develop quite the personality. She can be a little stinker, and is often called that by Erik or myself. :) She loves to be doing whatever Kyler is doing, and I often catch her watching him to see what she should be doing. Norah loves to play outside, although it has been too hot to be out some days this summer, that is still one of her favorite places to be. Norah really likes to push her babies around the house in their strollers. She also enjoys sitting in the one stroller and buckling herself in-yes she still loves to buckle everything. Since she likes to sit in her babies' stroller, I'm not sure how much longer it is going to last as the fabric is starting to rip. Another favorite thing for Norah to do right now is to take all the clothes off her babies....I'm not sure why she enjoys doing this, but I guess she likes her babies better with no clothes. :)
Here are some pictures of the last month of Norah:

Hanging with Uncle Ben
Loving the sweet corn!
Checking out the outside!
I had to get a picture of this....since Norah isn't tall enough to see out the window, she wraps her toes around the baseboard and uses that as a step as she hangs on to the handle on the window. :)
Loves to push her babies around the house!
Norah also loves to sit in the stroller herself and buckle herself in. :)
