13 months!

WOW...Chloe turned 13 months on October 19th and I am just now getting around to writing about it.

At 13 months....

-Size 3 diapers (we've been in this size FOREVER)
-12-18 month clothes and 18-24 month clothes
-size 5 shoes (they are a little big right now, but I want them to last longer)
-8 teeth, 6 on bottom & 2 on top and one more on the way on the top
-brush her teeth 2 times a day and she LOVES it!
-still LOVES bath time, but now likes to stand up and move along the edge of our bathtub, which causes many falls
-is into EVERYTHING...she opens all cabinets that aren't locked, walks along all the furniture, loves to turn the bathtub faucet on and off, loves to look out the windows and bang on them, loves to empty the wipe container and empty anything else she can get her hands on, etc., etc., etc.
-goes to 2 library classes a week, one in Royse City and one in Rockwall
-attend a playgroup once a week with friends from church
-not quite walking yet, but ever so close...has only taken 2 steps so far (10/26/2011)
-LOVES to look at books and talks to them...her favorite author is Eric Carle
-Tricks: waving (and I mean she waves to EVERYONE, everywhere we go!), clapping (just today she started clapping when she heard people clapping on TV), touchdown sign, and blowing kisses (she just did that for the 1st time last night!)

EATING...(this had to be a category all on its own)

-Started on Soy Milk shortly after her 12 month well visit to the pedi...not really a fan and would only drink 1 cup a day and it literally took all day to drink that 1 cup.

-We gave up on Soy Milk and started Whole Milk on October 17, 2011 and she likes it okay, but still does the same thing as she did with the Soy...just drinks 1 cup a day

-She loves to drink Motts for Tots juice and water, but she only gets 1 cup of juice a day

-SHE.IS.AN.EATER.....this girl will eat and eat and eat! Thankfully she is not a picky eater yet. She LOVES to eat....Go Gurt, fruit cups, jello, pudding, toast, oatmeal, bananas, strawberries, grapes, applesauce, cheese, any kind of potatoes, any kind of bread, any kind of pasta, peas, green beans, corn, carrots, tomatoes, pizza, crackers, cookies, ice cream, chicken nuggets from Chick Fil A, and SO MUCH MORE!!!!

It's hard to believe this precious angel of mine is 13 months! Time is just flying!

We love you so much Chloe Madison and are grateful you are a part of our family!

Just wanted to tell you that Talon is not a milk drinker either! I now give him milk right when he wakes up because he is starving and no solids right away. Although I'm pretty sure Carter ends up drinking most of his milk. Then I give him a straw cup at lunch and dinner and he will actually drink the milk from a straw. I bought those take and toss cups and he loves them. Before that I would get lucky if he drank 4 oz of milk a day!
