Camilla at 15 months

Running. Throwing tantrums. Picking and choosing what she wants to eat. Repeating things you say, though not always. Those are some of our highlights from the last three months with Camilla.

Here are some of the things I've absolutely loved.

Sunday I was walking down the hall at church with Camilla in my arms. We passed one of the portraits on the wall and I heard "Je-a" as she was looking at the picture of Christ. I think that's the youngest any of the girls have been when they've named him from a picture without being prompted.

A few weeks ago I told Camilla "Good job" for something (I think it was putting something away) and I heard "Ga ja" right afterwards. When I told Todd I thought she said Good Job, she nodded and grinned. Coincidence?

She now loves baths. At one year, it was like she was a cat the way she acted in the bathtub. Now, she actually wants baths and will try and take off her clothes to get in the tub herself. I know the change happened while we were on vacation but I'm not sure exactly what contributed to it. My best guess was the time we spent in pools on vacation solidified her love of water and she was willing to accept it in tub form as well as pool. I'm grateful--it's nice not leaving the bathroom soaked from head to toe now.
