seventeen months

Maeve at Seventeen Months:

Maeve got her *first kiss* by her neighborhood boyfriend Bowen. They are the sweetest friends but also have a hard time sharing. Maeve also got a double ear infection and croup at the SAME TIME! It was absolute hell but we made it through! She was so sad and cried all day and just wanted cuddles and movie time. She is very good at her colors and uses her colorful cups and bears to sort. She loves dressing up-especially with the dress ups at Grandma's so with it being Halloween, it's perfect timing! For her Halloween costume she got to wear stickers on her ears for pretend earrings and she loved every second! She's obsessed with all things Halloween, loves spooky decorations, and loves saying hi to our porch pumpkins every morning. She's at such a fun age and learning new things all the time!
