14 months old on Valentine's Day! So sweet.
Quick update for posterity - at 14 months Pipsqueak can:
-say 9 words consistently and with the correct meanings- Dada, Mama, Kitty-Cat, Again, Water, Ball Ball, Cheese, Pop-Pop, and Bye-Bye. Says oh so many words that I cannot understand for the life of me.
-RUN. Literally runs away and faster than me. She is a speedster.
-put herself to sleep at night and even for most naps.
-Sleeping 10-11 hours straight at night in her crib - usually from 7:30pm-6am. SO GLAD the 4:30am wakeups seems to be fading away. 6am seems a simply luxurious sleeping in at this point!!!!
-napping one huge nap midday (2-3 hours, usually 11am-2pm), and usually another 30-60 min nap late afternoon although sometimes she skips this.
-feeds herself for many meals - LOVES finger foods - especially shredded cheese, iron kids bread, deli meats, green beans, hummus. Still is loving pouches of baby veggies and fruits, and allows me to spoon feed her yogurt and gerber baby purees.
She is still breast feeding 3-4 times a day. I really don't know how I am going to wean her, the kid loves it. DH and I are going on an 11 day vacation to Hawaii in June while my parents stay with the baby so we have to wean by then. I guess I won't worry about it until May :-)
Every Tuesday morning we go to story time at the local library and she loves it. We are starting swimming lessons in April and I have begun researching gymanstics classes. It is so nice having the freedom to schedule so many activities and play dates...I am really starting to see the upside of only having one child.
Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Sounds like her language skills are really coming along! :) And running already? How fun!! I am just started the gradually weaning process with my daughter (as I talk about in my latest post). It is going to be tough but our goal is to be completely weaned by early summer as well. Now down to 3 feeds as of last week. Hope your weaning journey goes as smoothly as possible when you get to it!
ReplyDeleteI cannot believe I have somehow missed out on the entire fact that you have a Pipsqueak! How exciting that you are also thinking about the 2.0 issue. Do you have frosties from your IVF?
ReplyDeleteShe sounds like a fantastic little one. I'm sorry I've been so out of the loop. I'll add your blog to my reader and get caught up.

Lol! I know time flies :). No frosties unfortunately.
