16 & 17 Months!

Momma did it again; I didn't update your 16 month milestones.  Mainly those included you perfecting your alter ego "Caroled."  I apologize now for giving you this nickname, but it is really your sister who started it.  You were doing what you normally do and kinda aggravating her a few months ago she said "Stop caroled!"  It was too funny, daddy and I laughed and laughed.  You love to pick on your sister so much!  But now everytime you are acting up or being "difficult" we refer to you as Caroled or say that you are in the caroled mode.  Sister has also started calling you Carolinie.  I happen to like that, especially since I wanted to nickname you "linie" way before sister came up with that.  I don't know if I remembered to blog this or not but you love to sign "poop."  Now you also like pulling at your diaper and pointing to your butt when you poop.  We are pretty sure you are potty training material, heck daddy has been trying to potty train you for the past 6 months.  You weren't probably 3 months old when he first said "shouldn't see be using the potty by now?"  Apparently he forgot a lot of stuff between now and sisters development.  You will never know how thankful mommy is to have you, sister and daddy.  I love to see your face every single day.  I will probably see it every single day until college because mommy and daddy are not good about letting our girls stay anywhere but with them.  There are so many things you do so well, pick on big sister is probably the funniest one or your little dance you do when you are in trouble.  I also like when you KNOW you are doing something wrong like pulling all the wipes out of the container and when momma sees the mess in the floor and the 10 wipes in your hand and start toward you, you give momma the shake move, throw down your wipes and then run off.  It is so funny, really you may be funnier than your class clown of a sister.  Never a shortage of laughs or happy screaming in our house.  You say a lot of words, mostly to repeat them but I think the ones you say the most consistantly are probably "granny" and "bad."  You say momma, daddy, hot, cat, eat, this (oh you say THIS all the time), even the dreaded mine, you say NO way too much, dog, reese, josh, things like that pretty often.  Probably more words than momma even realizes.  You currently are only interested in being silly.  Still don't like tv (not that thats a problem) and you still love to eat.  I love you my silly big girl.  I guess I can't stop writing this until I mentioned your newest nickman from your dadda.  He has taken to calling you "goose"  No real reason that I know of.  Well, he may have told me something but as usual I wasn't listening to him.  I'm afraid its going to stil because you actually answer to it which may be even funnier than the name itself.  Momma and daddy have an inside joke about geese so when you are older ask him if he really means to call you a goose or a duck.  I love you beautiful girl!

MOMMA!
