Tantrums are here/Consentida

My first swimming pool.

Playing in front of the vacuum.

It is official Ariana is 16th months old. She has moved into the big bath tub. She is getting better at imitating sounds. She knows a lot of animal sounds. She is learning a couple sign language signals, and she is no longer laying on mommy's lap during her good night routine. She is also starting to be a little helper when it comes to putting away her toys and our tupperware containers. What a big girl!!!

I guess with growing up also comes tantrums. She has had a few episodes starting last weekend during Mass. So far they don't last too long, but she definatley lets us know what she wants.

Overall, it is a fun age. She loves to give us kisses. Sometimes she switches back and forth giving kisses to Nathan and then me. It is the best feeling.

Ariana ya tiene 16 meses y ha progresado mucho. Ya se bana en la banera grande, tambien esta imitando sonidos, se sabe los sonidos de varios animales, esta aprendiendo a comunicarse por senas, y ya no tengo que mecerla para dormir. Ariana tambien esta empezando a ayudar a guardar sus juguetes y los upperware en la cocina. Como esta creciendo.

Pero al mismo tiempo tambien esta empezando la etapa de la malcreades. Ya a tendio algunos momentos donde se pone a llorar si le damos lo que pide. El fin de semana pasado tubo un episodio durante la misa. Por suerte no duran mucho tiempo, pero definitivamente nos dice que es lo que quiere.

Esta es una etapa bien divertida. A ella le gusta darnos besos. Y a veces se turna dandonos besos a primero a Nathan y luego a mi. Es super tierno.
