16 Months Old

I guess it's about time for an update around here.

Regan turned 16 months old a few days ago, and she is growing into such a big girl now.  Walking is her primary mode of transportation, she has gotten quite the hang of it recently, and she can even walk really well on the grass.

She has learned some new words that she likes to use a lot; cat, clock, cake, papa, momma, kitty, car, and truck.  She uses so many words in the right context now, and "talks" a lot, though no one quite understands what she's saying.  She has also picked up a few more animal noises and hand motions; she does an owl "hooo, hooo", and a chicken "bawk, bawk, bawk", she pinches her fingers together for "crab", and flaps her hands for "butterfly".  Also, just recently she's been trying to say Uncle Colin's name, but it just comes out "Caaah!".

In other news, Rachel had her baby on Tuesday!  A boy, named Rhyon Alaric; and we are so excited for their growing family!

Here are some recent pictures of the bean:
