What was once my sweet little bundle of newborn cuddliness is now an independent and grown up girl complete with electronic gadgets and fashion accessories.
To celebrate the occasion Pete made his signature Key Lime pie; a bit sophisticated for a toddler, but then, she's a sophisticated young lady, as you can see from the photos:
Following the pie demolition, the Half Birthday Girl required a bath. I love these bath time pics (no worries, she's decent--at least for at her age).
And because milestones like this make me a tad sentimental, I want to share some updates on Miss Amelia Rose.
Amelia is a happy, happy girl. She has limitless confidence and will talk to anyone and everyone. She especially loves to make new friends on the subway and in elevators.
Amelia loves music and will stop what she's doing and dance whenever she hears music. TV commercials, opera in the park, street entertainers, break dancers on a street corner, it doesn't matter she'll dance along. She also loves to play on the keyboard in our apartment, pounding along with the pre-recorded songs.
Amelia loves Indian food, Mexican food, Italian food, and anything spicy or sweet.
Amelia loves shoes and actually loves to shop for shoes too. When my sister was in town and we went to Daffy's to find discount designer baby shoes for my niece, Amelia went nuts piling the stroller high with shoes from the shelves. Poor Caroline was buried under all of Amelia's selections. She also loves to try on my shoes and wear them around the house.
Amelia loves jewelry and will make friends with whoever is wearing the most glitz at church so she can play with their jewels.
Amelia loves things that smell good, and will carry my lotions and perfumes around the house sniffing them loudly.
Amelia loves other babies; "baby" is probably her favorite word at the moment (doggie, daddy, please and sippie being close seconds).
This girl is pure sunshine and Pete and I are crazy about her. Happy 1/2 birthday Sweet Baby!

I can't believe she is already 18 months! I remember when she was born. It's crazy how fast time has come and gone. I'm glad you guys are enjoying NYC. How much longer do you have there?
she'll either grow up to be a stewardess or a nun!
