Miss E at 15 months

 I attempted to take pictures that would work on Christmas cards and for grandparent's walls...
 she thought I was hilarious for even trying :)
 such a funny and STRONG personality
 every shot is blurry because she NEVER stops moving
 which isn't too noticeable until you want to blow them up to send to grandparents
 she knows what she wants--ALL the time--in this case, the swing set and not to be taking pictures by the gate
 she can give some pretty fierce dirty looks--but they almost always have a hint of smirk behind them (which isn't good when you're trying to be serious and tell her no or not to do something)
 still hates to touch grass
she is always moving so daintily...she even walks like a princess!
 still pulls the cabbage patch every now and again--even with a mouth full of teeth
 always scanning the area to see what else she can do to cause mischief
 she really loves to be outside, even on her sad days the outdoors will put a smile on her face

 she can talk your ear off...she talks a LOT for her age.  She makes about every possible animal noise and calls the animal by the sound they make (other than puppy and hippo), she asks to watch a "show" if she sees an electronic device (anything on the iPad or a phone or clips on the lds site are all considered shows), she will talk on the phone to Papa, Nana, Daddy, or Grandpa (sorry grandma, I guess your name is harder) for a very long time, she asks for things to be "open" or "a help pease," she sings the alphabet song with vigor though only a few letters are recognizable, "sunbeam" is her favorite song, she could sit and read books all day--she even asks for books by name based on what they are about "mama ook," "moo moo ook," "meow cat," "puppy pease," "one ook," and the list goes on and on.  She requests "noonles," "cackers," "juice or gulk," "apples" (which refers to all fruit other than "nanas"), "nanny" (thanks to the kids she loves candy!), "ookie" (those free cookies at Harris Teeter are never passed up), and lots more foods.  She likes to say the prayer--it's pretty adorable. This is how she folds her arms:
 She always asks for a "rare" when something is "hot-hot" and then she'll fold her arms like this and start saying one.  And she says much, much more...
 so silly--she has figured out things that get a pretty hearty laugh around here, like: showing your belly button and saying "bed-dy" and then chasing the other person saying "bed-dy" and trying to lift their shirt, making any noises with your tongue or blowing raspberries on people, tooting, burping, repeating anything that one of the kids say (especially inappropriate words like "butt"), and the list goes on and on...
 it started to be a bit too sunny and her squinty eyed smile came out...

we love this VERY active, sweet, lovable, HAPPY, opinionated...little girl
