18 months

today is ryan's birthday. my baby is now a year and a half. it seems like just yesterday when she was a tiny little thing.
how did this happen so quickly?
ryan is an absolute sweetie pie. she is full of energy. spunky. sweet. independent.
ryan, at 18 months:
...calls everyone 'dada'.
...is fearless. i know that this is a great trait yet it isn't so fabulous when she climbs up to the top of the jungle gym.
...loves spending time with her brother.
...talks a whole bunch - even though she is speaking her own language she acts as though you should understand every word.
...smiles all the time.
i love you, ryan. more than you will ever know.
