My sweet little Pea is not so little anymore. Holy moly! How is it that she is already 15 months old? What a fun 15 months she has made for all of us! Here is a short summary of all that she is up to these days.
Weight: 22 lbs
Height: don't know exact measurement but she towers over most two year olds! She is TALL!
Size: 18 month clothes, 5.5 shoe size
Sleeping Habits: YOU ARE THE BEST SLEEPER EVER! I thought Ry was, but you take the cake on this one doll! I will brag a bit about this subject, because you have earned it. You are unbelievable! I owe a lot to what I learned from Baby Wise and my anal regimented ways, but you get most of the credit! You have NEVER even slept with us! Not once (besides the first 4 weeks of your life when you were in our room in the co-sleeper so we could make sure you didn't stop breathing)! You love your crib and your own way of putting yourself to sleep. We would get in the way of your routine if you were in bed with us! I counted and in the last 6 months you have only woke up in the night 2 times and it was the past few nights because you have a stuffy nose. Both nights you went right back to sleep after some medicine and a one minute cuddle. Your daddy and I joke that sometimes we wish you would wake us up and come snuggle with us! Then we laugh and say not really! Our sleep and your good sleep is priceless, we will snuggle during the day! You go to bed around 7:30 p.m.. It is a quick and painless process. We read 2 quick books and then I put you in your crib with paci, Zeebee and I start your glow worm music. That is it. We sometimes hear you talking and playing for awhile (sometimes until 9:00!), but you never cry out. Your daddy thinks you fall asleep and then wake up and play and fall back asleep. Whatever you do it is great! You usually sleep until 8 or 8:30 and you wake up happy. I usually find you playing in your crib. You still take 2 naps. One 2 hour in the a.m. and an hour and a half in the afternoon. Our busy life has made you skip a nap here and there and you do just fine. In a few months, in preparation for preschool in the fall, I will start transitioning you to one long afternoon nap. I will enjoy the next few months of your two naps! (I get a lot of blogging done and coffee drank during morning nap time).
Favorite Foods: Babes chicken (anything on the menu), bananas, mac n cheese, ice cream, Chinese food, beans, chicken nuggets, french fries, Eggo waffles, eggs, goldfish, cheese, gogurts, Happy Meals.......
Yucky Foods: berries, green beans (that is about it)
You Love to: wrestle and tickle with Daddy, play with your piggy bank, paci, Zeebee, sit in booster seats, go on walks in your stroller, play in your room alone, read books, watch movies with Ryan, pet your dogs, play outside in the yard, color with sidewalk chalk, swing in your new swing, take all the blocks/legos out and then put them all back in the container, throw everything out of your crib, bath time with Ryan, going down the slide solo, climb anything
New Things You Do: say "muh" for more (almost always in reference to food), run everywhere, babble all of the time, push Ryan back when she pushes you, big open mouth kisses on command, temper tantrums (throwing yourself backwards and intentionally hitting your head when you are told "no"), you have really started participating at library story time!
You love your swing!
Taking in the new view!
Zeebee is always with you.
You are such a happy, low maintenance little girl.
You love the open gym on Tues/Thurs mornings at the Rec Center!
You love the parachute at the library, just like Ryan does!
Mamaw is the best!
You run all over the place!
You are always on the move, my little busy bruiser.
You are a sneaky bunny thief.
You find many ways to get back at your sissy. :-)
Look at all that hair!
Best kisses ever.
I ask for them over and over again. We all do!
LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK MY SWEET PEA!
