Look who is growing up?

Rosie is almost 18 months old, and is no longer a baby, but a beautiful young lady. She can’t walk yet, which isn’t surprising as none of my others walked until after 18 months. But she likes to walk holding onto my hands.  She is really learning to talk though. And so quickly.  She will try to repeat anything that is said to her, and answers all questions with ‘yes’ or ‘no’.  She can call her brothers and sister’s names when she wants them, and shouts for them like a right bossy little madam!  Tarja taught her to say ‘Lady Gaga!’  Every day with her is a gift. She is at that wonderful stage where every little part of life is filled with great wonder. A ladybird, a daisy, the birds, a horse in a field, the bin man collecting the rubbish… everything fascinates her. She wants to point at things and hear what they are called, so that she can try to repeat and memorise it.  She is learning to assert her own authority and can have quite the temper tantrum if she doesn’t get her own way. She knows what she wants, and doesn’t want!

wow lovely pics, she is looking so much like Barney now. There is also a look of your dad about her in the first photo if you cover her eyes.

wouldn't it be lovely if we stayed so fascinated by the simple things in life. There's a lot to learn from children :)

I thought she looked like dad in that first one too. She definitely has a look of him around the mouth sometimes.
