15 Months

Another month has flown by!  Here are Pinky's "monthly stats":

Height: 31 3/4 inches
Weight: 24.8 pounds

Sleeping patterns:  Bedtime 7:30.  Awake at 7 am - usually needs some help!  Weekends....still sleeping in occasionally!  9 am is the record!  Still taking morning and afternoon naps . . . Sundays usually just one nap, but the last two weeks the 1 nap has lasted almost 4 hours! 

Eating habits: Breakfast; snack; lunch; snack; frozen pea appetizer; dinner.  2% milk or water to drink.  Occasionally a little juice. 

New foods I liked:  Still on a pasta-strike.  LOVES cotton candy.   Tried salmon and LOVED that too!!!  New snack of choice . . . goldfish crackers.  Still loves an appetizer of frozen peas before dinner. 

"Frozen Pea Appetizer" - No one makes them like mommy!

Cotton Candy . . . You gotta try it!

 New discoveries I made:  LOVES her duplo legos!  Can fit them together but prefers to take them apart!  Thinks putting them away when finished is a blast!    New favorite book is "Goodnight Moon", but also love flap-books and button books!  Thinks eating with a spoon is fun.  There's so much to see looking out the window.

Waiting for spring.

My accomplishments:  Can go from floor to stand without any help.  Has taken several steps without help too, but not quite ready to give up the "Pinky-Shuffle".  Loves blowing kisses, giving hugs and kisses, and snuggling with blankets and bears!  Starting to not "need" the pacifier quite so much.  But will take it whenever offered!  Can find ears, eyes, nose, tummy, belly button on self an others! 

Places I went:  Went to visit grandmas and grandpas in March.  Play-date with "Ad-Lib"!  Lincoln School Carnival.  St. Patty's Day Party with Cousins.  To Auntie Carman's to play!

Big girl in my carseat!

New words:  Signing "please".  Saying:  "thank you",  "hush" (from favorite book . . . "Goodnight Moon"),  "hot", "neigh", "roar", "grandpa".  Her grandma is certain she can also say "delicious" and "banana". 

Look who came to see me!  Thanks for the books!!! 3-15-11

Our little one loves to share hugs and smiles, toys, and kisses.  Come see for yourself if you get the chance!
