Cami 15 months

Washing the car--she loved playing in the bubbles and getting sprayed by the hose

playing with water on our back porch--mostly she dumped it on herself

• Cami "holds up" bridges when we drive under them. 
• She can open doors (lever handles)
• She loves to stand on stools and try to see up high.  She can also climb up on chairs
• She is talking more and more each day.  She regularly says ah-oh, Mommy, Daddy, eat, more, up, bug, done, bye-bye, hi, night-night, hot, buckle, bath
• Cami knows lots of animal sounds--pig, cat, dog, fish, duck, bunny (hop), sheep and quail.  There are quail at our house and Cami loves to chase them down and squawk at them. 
• She loves to eat!  She can now take bites of things like bread and pancakes.  She likes to dip, just like Cade.  Her favorite foods are tomatoes, oranges, hot dogs, avocados and strawberries.  She will ask for more and more until the food all runs out.  She will eat most foods without a problem.  She also loves to drink water from a sippy cup and gets 2-3 bottles a day of whole milk. 
• She is a great sleeper and has had no trouble falling asleep away from home.  She will not sleep in my arms and only in the car if she is REALLY tired though.  She is still taking 2 naps most days and sleeps 11-12 hours at night.  I think the morning nap will be gone by her next month birthday.  She doesn't need it everyday. 
• She loves to laugh with Cade.  She loves to jump on Cade's bed and follow him around and imitate everything he does. 
• She loves to put her head down on the ground and wait for us to flip her over to do a somersault.  She also loves to go for rides on our backs and legs. 
• When she gets a messy diaper, she says "pur-pur" and tells me she needs a change.
• My mom offered Cade a strawberry today while Cami was drinking her bottle.  She made a loud "AAH" noise, threw her bottle and ran over to my mom wanting a strawberry too. 
• She loves to run away mid-diaper change with a naked bum. 
• Cami and Cade both love bugs right now.  When Cami sees one outside, she points to it and says "du-du-du" over and over and wants to show everyone around. 
• She likes to take my hand and pull me places
• Cami wants to be involved and help with whatever you are doing.  She loves to be held and see what is going on. 
• Cami is a very happy baby--most of the time.  She loves to play and have fun.  But, if she gets hurt or you tell her no, she will be mad for a bit.  Definitely a girl!
• One day we were outside on the grass and Cami saw some water pooled up on the green sprinkler box.  She started dipping her finger in it and licking it off!  I didn't realize what she was doing until I saw mud on her chin.  Gross!
• We played on the back patio with water and bowls and cups one day.  Cami loved dumping the water out, even though most of it ended up soaking her shirt. 
• She will do some actions for Wheels on the Bus and Mr. Sun.  Sometimes we dance around with ribbons and shakers and Cami thinks that is awesome!
