15 Months

Today Clara turned 15 months old. She seems so much older than she did when she turned one. Her verbal skills have really exploded and she has a lot of words now. She also enjoys independent play more than she previously did and likes kicking balls. We are encouraging her to throw balls, but she's not convinced on that yet. She has gained a little sense of humor and likes being silly and playing with Joshua a lot. She has started to imitate him more. She weighs just over 14 pounds. Here are a lot of the words she says, though I am sure we are leaving some out.
