Fifteen Months

Mmmm...Nutella!

Wow! It's been awhile since I've posted a stats update for Lindsay. So far, one is a great age. She is so much fun, and her little personality is just blossoming.

*Lindsay's hair has been growing...I can put a clip in it, and sometimes she will even leave it in for more than 5 minutes.

*Teeth.....Whoa! My child has 8 teeth: Top 4, Bottom 3, plus 1 1/2 molars, and she is working on 3 more! It went from 0 to 4 pretty quick.

*She is sleeping 11 hours, from 7:30 pm to 6:30-7:00 am.... all night! Whoo Hoo! She is still taking 2, 1 1/2 hour naps per day.

*Big eater... Lindsay has always enjoyed eating, but she really wasn't all that excited about it. Lately, she has been eating a TON, and liking just about everything, with the exception of eggs and pancakes. These are some of her favorite meals: Grilled Turkey & Cheese Sandwich, Tiny Ravioli's with Tomato Sauce, Potato Casserole, Green Beans, Bean & Cheese Quesadillas, Mac & Cheese, Blueberries, Watermelon, Strawberries etc.... We also discovered she loves onion dip.... taking after her Reid side of the family!

*Lindsay is officially a walker, and enjoys taking walks around the courtyard. She likes to be chased, particularly near bath time. Streaking down the hallway is a nightly part of her routine.

*She is still an avid reader; some of her favorite books are: "Good Night Moon", "A Cuddle for Little Duck", any peekaboo flap books, and "Cookie Monster has to Wait". We have been going to story time at the park across from Pepperdine and she has so much fun. They sing songs, read stories and play games. Her attention span is ok for a couple books, but being around the older kids is so great for her.

*Lindsay loves her baby. She pretend feeds her baby a bottle and sippy cup, and shows her baby love with a hug and a pat on the back! She always says, "Awwww" when she gives hugs.

*Dancin' Fool.... my girl LOVES to dance. Anywhere. Anytime. She hears a tune, or a beat for that matter, and her little body starts to wiggle!

*Big Talker Betty Crocker.... She speaks a language we do not understand, but it is peppered with words that we can recognize. She is constantly adding new words to her vocabulary, and her favorite is to point and say, "Whaz Tat?" (What's That?). Last night I overheard her in the bath practicing "Bub Bub" or "Bubbles".

Funny things our 15 month old does:

*Lift up your shirt, poke your belly button and wait for you to laugh.

*Give slobbery kisses.

*While reading any story with any food, say "MMMMmmm Nom Nom." ex. Every night when we read "Goodnight Moon", we turn the page to "Goodnight mush" I hear "Mmmm Nom Nom"!

*Try on any one's "Shoooozzz" (shoes) lying around.

*Biting her crib rails... grrrr. Not so funny.
