In just 2 days, Allie will hit the big ONE year milestone! So much has happened in her little life, and so much has changed in our lives! She is not walking yet because each time she tries, she takes off running and she is not able to work on her balance! She can stand on her own, but once she realizes what she is doing, she wants me to hold her!
She loves to eat meat of all kinds and vegetables and pretty much anything else I give her; except eggs at this point. (Lunch at Jon's Office)
She says "Momma, Hi, up, ball, Ralph, Ray (they are not all super clear though) and all sorts of other words that only she knows what they are at this point! She continues to be very social and mild mannered.
She loves to get into the dog food, feed the dogs her food, take the dogs for a walk,
open and close doors, go up and down the stairs, swing at the playground, , stand up in her crib and jibber jabber,
hug her stuffed toys, open up kitchen cabinets and pull everything out,
getting a bath,
playing with her loud toys or making loud noise.
But most of all, she LOVES to eat apples! I know it is a choking hazard and I don't let her on purpose, but she finds them and eats!
Some things she does not like are: being put in her car seat, being held for very long (wants to get down and explore), being read to (she is just now starting to sit still long enough to hear 1-2 pages and this is the only book she likes),
having a bow or hat on her head,
sleeping in the pack and play.
We had a rough month with her sleeping schedule; as in she was NOT sleeping, but we have figured it out and are back to the two naps and sleeping 12 hours at night.
So many things for her to learn and so much fun to be had by us all! We love our sweet gift from God and she is truly a blessing!
