16 Month Stats

Last week Ally had her 16 month check-up. Her stats are as follows~
Height: 32 inches (91st percentile)
Weight: 23 pounds (60th percentile)
So, she's still tall and skinny. If she keeps growing the way she has been, she'll be able to go on quite a few rides at Disney World, when we're there in October!

Word Association

Lately it seems that Ally is understanding the meaning of some certain words. Yesterday morning, she brought me her shoes and said "shoes", so we put on our shoes. Also yesterday, as I was getting her lunch ready I got a slice of cheese out the the fridge and she said "cheese". Today at Meijer, as we walked past the animal section, she pointed at the fish tanks and yelled "fish". I'm very impressed and totally convinced that we're raising a genius. However, she still doesn't quite understand that "no" means "stop what you're doing now"!
