Milestones :: Crawling everywhere! Pulling up on everything! Pushing things around! She’s getting into everything and being such a big girl. She’s talking, babbling and showing her little personality more and more each day.
Sleep :: She’s back to sleeping good again. She’s taking 2 long naps and sometimes an extra cat nap through the day. Usually around 10 and 2. She’s sleeping all night (most of the time) from 8pm – 5/6am then back to sleep until 8:30am. Occasionally she will sleep until 7-7:30 and then she’s up for the day. She’s a good little sleeper and we are so proud! All sleeping is in her crib! All night in her sleep sack, naps are just with a light Kickee blanket!
Favorites :: bath time, being outside, swinging, looking at the fan and lights & talking to them, loves the abc wall in her room-she’s started to scratch the wall and laugh at it, nursing & mommy’s milk, smiling at anyone that talks to her, watching sissy, laughing, she’s recently started to love big people food, tummy sleeping, the squeaky vulli toy, chewing on anything and everything, teething cookies, trying to get mine and sissy’s drinks, following mommy around, opening drawers, honking our noses and playing with faces, she looooooves to talk to the monitor and play with it, crawls to cords so we’ve put all those up, she’s so curious and loves to figure things out. She’s a phone hog (she loves to chew on it and talk to whatever is on the screen), looooves Mickey Mouse and likes to follow mommy and sissy around all day. She loves ALL foods, little piggy!
Doesn’t like :: taking the time to get her diaper changed, she’s on the MOVE! She hates when her arms get stuck in outfits, doesn’t really love her carseat unless she’s sleeping, and reallllllyyy doesn’t like to be told NO!
