Binx Update (15 Months)

Binx keeps us as busy as ever, but is so much fun. (It almost makes the whole newborn ordeal worth it.) Besides getting into everything and making a mess, we enjoy her energy and curiosity.
She is usually a happy little girl.

Binx loves to...

Go outside and run around.


Take the pillows off of the couch and throwing them on the floor.
Climb on everything.


Loves runs in the running stroller (especially outside - she loved the Provo River Trail)
Sit in her car seat?!?! She has stopped screaming when we put her in the car seat and now just likes to buckle herself in.
Hug and kiss little boys and babies. She loves kids, and is becoming stingy with her kisses for adults.

She is quick to give you a kiss if she's in trouble.

Read - both us reading to her and her reading to us (which consists of her pointing to pictures and words and making sounds).


Put on shoes -- she is obsessed with shoes. She puts on her crocks all the time because they are her favorites. She also loves the wooden shoes I got while in the Netherlands a while ago.
Store cereal on the second shelf of the bookshelf.
Put dirty diapers in the garbage.
Go out for a hamburger with Grandma Davies and Papa Great (my Grandpa Davies)
Conduct the music at church.
And more that I won't bore you with...

Words and Phrases, etc...
