14 Months

Today when I asked you to go get a diaper, you walked across the room and grabbed a diaper and brought it back to me.

You now will say cheese and sometimes smile. We are working on putting the two together. You will copy some of the words that we say, but you aren't consistent with a lot of them yet.

This month you have been waking up once a night, 2-3 times times a week. The other nights you sleep for 11- 13 hours straight.

When you hear music or if we say Dance, you dance by doing little squats, it is really cute.

You wear 12- 18 month clothes. You got a bunch of size 18 months for Christmas and the shirts work, just a little long in the sleeves. But the pants fall off your tiny bum and we have to roll them up too.

You still take 2 naps a day, usually 3 hours total.

All day long you bring Mom and Dad book after book. You don't want us to read it, just flip through the pictures as fast as possible. Then it is time for a new one.

We don't really let you play on the iPad, but if you see it, you want it. And when we take it away you have a big fit.

You love the Aden & Anais muslin blankets. You pull them out of your crib and walk around the house with at least 1, and usually 2 in your hands.

One of your favorite Christmas gifts right now
is a picnic basket you got from Grandma Sue. You carry the basket and take the food in and out, over and over again.

You are constantly pointing at items around the house.

When you want something or are really excited about getting something you will open and close your hands.

You are still drinking 1 sippy cup of milk a day. The other day you drank 2 and a half and we were so proud of you. You have your own camelbak water bottle but you love drinking from Mom's.

Lately you have been loving pieces of ham, mandarin oranges, pancakes, and anything sweet.

Your hair is growing, the back is definitely growing faster but we can do some new things with the top instead of a headband everyday.
