14 Months

Look at this sweet face....

is there any wonder why I am so in love??




Time keeps on chugging along!  The baby is now 14 months!  WOW!  This is the most fun stage yet!  Her little personality is in full swing and she definately keeps us laughing! 

Some updates on the angel baby:

Eating-The girl is definately a big eater, which translates into a big pooper.  I mean we're talking 5-6 times a day.  (TMI??  She'll want to know when she is older, I think.)  There really isn't anything that she doesn't like.  Broccoli, any type of fruit, and crackers are her favorites.  Mark and I have to spell out the word cracker in front of her, and she is limited to about two a day.  She is getting between 4-6oz of milk at each meal.  Sometimes she gets breast milk, sometimes regular milk and sometimes a mix.  Whatever is easiest at the time.  This will be the last month of breast milk, my freezer full is almost gone. 
Her weight at the hospital on Tuesday was 18 lbs, 10 oz!  My growing baby!

Sleeping-No new news.  Still going great!  She sleeps with about 4 pacis in her crib.  She doesn't have a blankie, but will feel around her crib until she has all of her pacis under her arm.  Breaking her of that is going to be tricky!

Teeth-She got two new teeth last week.  One molar tooth is starting to appear on the bottom right, she is also getting a front tooth on the bottom right.  Getting her to open her mouth so I can look is really difficult.

Tricks-She is running!  About two weeks ago she started standing up without pulling up on anything.  She will point to her ears when you ask her, and when sitting in your lap, she will point to your eyes and say "eye."  She loves riding in her car, swinging, and going down the slide.  She is such a little cuddle bug.  I love that! 

 

Talking-I think that this is such a fun stage because all of the talking she is doing!  She will pretty much repeat any word that you tell her to say.  This only started about two weeks ago.  She also says several words without having to be prompted.  Cracker, Mama, Dada, dog, Hutch, duck, apple, car, cheese, cup, up, orange,
and outside are a few that I can remember right now. 

We had a very eventful month!!

We attended an Easter egg hunt at church!  It had to be moved inside because of the weather, but Haisley still enjoyed it.  These were taken at home before we left so she could practice. 

 

Daddy helping her gather the eggs at church.  She just wanted to walk through them and sit in the middle of them. 

They turned the water in the fountain in front of the church purple and Haisley LOVED it!

 

There was even a petting zoo! 

 

 

We also did some fishing this month.  Of course, Haisley insisted on wearing her bubble that had a fish on it.  What can I say, the girl is theme oriented.

 

The little bit got a new stroller (not as bulky as the old one), and a new carseat that is front facing.  We are all happier now!  She loved playing with the boxes!

 

Some random pics with precious outfits that our sweet Aunt Ashley let us borrow!

And the highlight of the month for me, JJ bought Haisley materials for her first "journal," kindergarten style!!  I LOVE IT!  Anybody who really knows me knows that I am constantly trying to teach Haisley stuff, so a journal is PERFECT!!!  Gotta love that JJ taught children how to write for 30 years!

 

 

 Non-toxic markers that ended up on her lips/in her mouth.  No biggie, right?
