Things She Can Say at 17 Months

Addie can say lots of things with signs and she can finally say lots of things with her mouth. I need to write them down anyway, so why not do it on my blog where I can't lose it! ;)

Sign

Water
Milk
Cat- BRAND NEW!!

Horse- Also brand new, like just today, but she doesn't do it right. It's really cute!
Bye Bye

No- new favorite and she says it with about 3 syllables!
Addie (she knows and says her sweet little name and it makes me so happy)
Baby
Blankey (bankey)
PeePee
Eye
Shhh (does that count as a word)
Meow (mowww)
Quack Quack (she can also make the sound "mmmmm" for a cow and "ahh ahh" for a monkey and "ffff, ffff" for a dog, all of which is really cute)

I've racked my brain and that's all I can think of. She's just over 17 months now and is getting super rotten. She has evil looks, rolls her eyes at me, is constantly filthy and then rubs food in he hair, slaps, hits, runs away, screams at her brother, tells us "naaaaooooo," and refuses to share or be patient. Does this sound pretty typical to everyone?! :) She also gives big hugs and kisses & high fives, runs like Frankenstein, giggles hysterically all the time, tickles herself in the floor while saying, "Tickle, tickle, tickle" (add that to the list!), she's gone pee pee on the potty one time, plays with her hair when she's tired to get to sleep, carries around her blanket I made for her, has such a sweet little voice, and amazes us constantly with all she can do and how much she loves us and we all love her. Freddie definitely gets the big brother of the year award putting up with all she puts him through. He handles it pretty well though and reminds her often that she's just a "lil' tiny baby and I'm a big boy." He also tells her when she's being "wude," and when to share and not to hit, etc. We try to keep him from taking on so demanding of a role, but I know it's hard when you're the oldest and those little ones just don't respect you. So, I think we're going to teach her to respect and obey her big brother while also trying to make sure he knows that it isn't his job to correct her or make her do right. It's way too big of a responsibility, even for me some days!
