Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of our family, friends and readers!

Addy loves her rocking horse. She can climb onto it, rock it, and climb off all by herself!

Addy and Auntie Mikaela. She says “Gig ‘em Aggies!”

Thanksgiving Dinner. Yum yum!

Enjoying dessert. Addy’s favorite part was licking the whipped cream off of the beaters.

We hope everyone had as wonderful a day as we did! We love the holidays!!

Adelyn is 18 months old and I am 9 weeks pregnant.

Monthly Update – 18 months

I can’t believe our daughter is 1.5 years old today!!!

Accomplishments this month: identifies many objects when asked; walks up the stairs well (down is still a little slower); likes to jump; can run fast!

Personality: loves to give kisses; enjoys being the boss and telling people what to do (just like her Momma!).

Sleep habits: 11-12 hrs a night, and she goes down between 7:30-8:30pm.  One nap a day, usually shortly after lunch, ~5hrs after she wakes up.  Naps can last anywhere from 1.5-3 hrs long.

Favorite:

• Songs: dance hits; nursery rhymes; anything with a good beat
• Foods: goldfish crackers; salsa; pineapple; oatmeal; graham crackers and cream cheese; grapes; apple sauce; squash; pancakes; peaches; plums; bananas; homemade pizza; all cheeses; lasagna; any noodles; tomato; ranch dressing and ketchup; turkey (or ham) and cheese sammiches (just not the bread…); toast with jam, popsicles; yogurt; ice cream sandwiches… she tried eggplant and she’s starting to enjoy peas, corn and broccoli now. She likes to chew on green beans, but won’t eat the pods.
• Activities: climbing into peoples laps so they will read her a book; coloring and choosing which colors she wants you to use; helping Momma put the clothes in the washing machine/move the clothes from the washing machine to the dryer; having dance parties; picking up leaves and acorns;
• Word: uh oh, no, Mama, Dada, ball, moh (Moon), ooo ooo ahh (for a monkey), boom boom (for her new favorite book, Chicka Chicka ABC)
