-She loves peek-a-boo, itsy-bitsy spider, pat-a-cake, this little piggy, etc. etc. etc. She LOVES to interact...she can hardly contain her excitement when mommy or daddy gets on the floor to play with her.
-She wears a size 3 diaper and a size 3 shoe. However, of course, I have to throw in that we use cloth and love it.
-She has 4 teeth! Her top front, two teeth came in within a week of each other.
-Early this month, she started poking her lip out and pouting when told, "no." She will also shake her head back and forth when she hears, "no."
-She will stand on anything and everything to get what she wants. This means she hears, "no," a lot.
-She often pulls herself up on the entertainment center, which makes her eye level with the bottom of the tv screen...she will stand with both hands on the entertainment center and bounce up and down to the music on the tv. She has also figured out how to turn the tv on and off....
-After each nap, she reaches out to turn the light switch on. She smiles the BIGGEST smile when it comes on.
-She wakes two times or more each night. In her defense, we have been traveling A LOT lately. We have definitely learned that E is her mother's child and likes a routine with familiar surroundings. At home, she sleeps wonderfully...anywhere else is a different story. And don't even think about trying to get her to nap on the go...no way! She typically wakes in the morning around 7, takes two naps and is in bed around 7:30.
-Her hair is really growing in this month...and it's curly in the back! So sweet. Everyone asks where "the blonde comes from." Well, it's not exactly blonde...just light brown...and mine was just as light as a baby and then got darker as I grew...so I assume E's will do the same.
-One of her absolute favorite things is to attack the laptop when it's out. She will be playing with her toys and the second the laptop is out she throws the toy and shoots across the floor as fast as her knees and hands can take her. She wants to slam all the keys, chew on the side, and play peek a boo by pulling the top part backwards in order to see whoever is using it. At first it was cute...now she is going to destroy it if we're not careful. We're working on, "no," with this one.to
- She nurses about 5 times including one night time feeding. She has slowed down with enjoying solids this month. She still eats three meals a day but she's not very adventuresome with new foods and is A LOT more interested in playing than eating.
-She says mama, dada, baba, nana, gaga...she babbles all day long at home. When we're out and about she is usually pretty quiet taking everything in. She usually refuses to smile at strangers now. If someone is trying to get a smile out of her, she'll look at D or me like, "why is this crazy trying to get me to smile?"
-She began opening drawers and cabinets like a wild child. I'm surprised she hasn't pinched a finger in a drawer, or smashed a hand in a cabinet yet.
-I do believe this will be the last post I write while BabyGirl is playing...She will NOT leave the computer alone! I guess it's time to manage my computer time a little better!
Words can't express our love for BabyGirl. She is the joy of our lives. I am so beyond grateful that I'm able to raise her at home. There is NOWHERE I'd rather be.
-Megan
