15 months!

(The photo above is at a field hockey game for Hannah. The game stared late, so I was pulled out all the stops to keep her entertained. She loves to color and stuff. She is totally holding the pen the correct way! She colors the same way too!)

(We were hanging out at Auntie La-La's last Friday and I snapped the photo above. It seems kind of blurry but I can't believe how big she looks. She has definitely turned into Mommy's big girl over the summer!)

(The photo above: is by far one of my favorites. She is doing her fishy lips imitation. This was at the library. Those eyes and those eye lashes. I hope she keeps the long eye lashes forever!)

Hard to believe she's 15 months already! (Okay, so she's really almost 16 months at this point!) She is a very funny girl! Her sense of humor is hysterical. She knows when to be all cute so she doesn't get into trouble!

She went in for her 15 month check up on the 29th of September. She did pretty well! She got four shots. The nurse brings in another nurse and they double team them for shots. They count to 3 and stab them at the same time. The first round she kind of whimpered, the second round down right ticked her off. The crying ended pretty quickly when I started to put her pants back on she started saying "bye bye" because we were outta there! She weighs in at 21 lbs 6 oz (she has only gained one pound since her cardiologist appointment in July :), her length is at 29 inches now. I forget how big her head is, but that has a higher percentage than her height and weight! She's growing right on schedule, actually a little ahead.

She is trying to chat up a storm.

She says;

Daddy (sometimes it's Dada)
Mommy (sometimes comes out Money, nice, right?)
uppie (pick me up)
no (duh)
uh-oh
Zachary is Acky
Jamie is Ja-ja-ja (why she throws 3 J's into it, I have no idea)
Hannah is Nannah
Lori is La-La
more (she's been saying more A LOT the last couple of days...now if she could just learn please!).

She knows where her belly (& button), ears, mouth, chompers (aka..teeth), pretty hair (she's a girl, it can't just be HAIR, it's got to be PRETTY), nose (every now and again her finger makes it's way UP her nose), eyes, toes (she wiggles them for you too), hands and the grand finale is asking her if she has a poop. She pats her little behind and says, uh-oh! She also loves to do the motions for pat-a-cake, and we are working on twinkle twinkle. She just laughs when I sing twinkle twinkle.

This week she has started shaking her head "yes" as well. She tries any way, she puts her whole body into it. She shakes her head "no" quite well. Mommy: "Nyssa are you going to go on the potty soon and wear big girl panties?" Nyssa: *shakes her head no and laughs. (In my world it's never too soon to start talking about potty training!!

We were given a girls bedroom set by someone in our apartment building, so we had to do a little re-arranging in her bedroom a couple of weeks ago. Chuck actually came up with floor plan to allow more toys to be left out for her to go play in there. She plays awesome by herself. She just takes off for her room now. Her favorite thing to play with in there is her doll house. Actually it used to be Lauren Egert's and it's been passed down through their family/cousin's and now it's ours! It is funny to be playing doll house with my daughter that I used to play 13 years ago with Lauren! She loves playing with her baby doll's and cars and trucks. She's pretty much entertained by anything I guess!

Another favorite past time of Nyssa's would be putting on clothes. She may already have clothes on her little body, but if she can get some shirts and/or pants out of her drawers without Mommy putting them back, she will plop right down start attempting to put them on. Most of the time the shirt ends up as pants, but whatever makes her happy! You know when she can get them because you hear the "Wilson" temper flare up.

She is well on her way to perfecting the tantrum thing too. She has been known to immediately sit on tush, lay down and proceed to slam her feet on the ground all the while she's yelling at me. The tantrum that isn't as bad usually ends up with her crying and yelling and pointing at me while she's walking away to find some wall space. She backs herself up to the wall, stands there and cries. Just cries and cries. It's actually kind of funny which I'm sure pisses her off even more! I've got to get a picture next time it happens. It's funny stuff.

That's pretty much it for here. I can't believe the last post was July. I suck at this now. No. Really I just put a ton more stuff up on Facebook. It's so much easier!

We hope everyone out there is doing well and staying warm!!
