Lillian at ELEVEN and TWELVE months

So seriously, I have a ONE year old. Lillian turned one on October 16th, 2014. And she is the sweetest thing.

I have kind of been slacking on the month thing. I think I missed eleven months, so I'm going to make up for it now. Lillian's birthday party is this weekend (two weeks after her actual birthday). We just needed time to get the house set up...and it's still not fully done, but it is done enough to host a party. A pink party, at that!

 



Things about Lillian at ELEVEN and TWELVE months:

- Fully on whole milk. And loving her life because of it. In the last few weeks, we started making the sippy cup transition and that is going great, too! She still gets a bottle before bedtime but that's it. Milk with all three meals.

- Eating like a hawse. She eats mostly what I fix for dinner....mostly. But sometimes I have to hide the veggies in cheese. But still much easier than chicken-nuggets-Hudson. Sissy LOVES a carb. That apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Doesn't love green beans.

- Wearing 12 months mostly. The fall 12 month dresses are so long and she trips over them, but she is wearing them! Because they match her brother.

- Sleeping about 12 hours at night 7:00 pm-7:00 am. She takes some milk and goes back down for a bit. Napping two times a day. Short nap in the am and longer one with brother in the afternoon.

- WALKING everywhere. She started walking on September 3rd and has been full speed ahead ever since. She is in that full on toddler stage now: get into every.single.thing. And I have to re-direct her about 20 times per day. If its too quiet in the house, things are about to go horribly wrong. Last week, she straight up ate dog food.

- Loves board books, Mickey/Minnie mouse, messing with Hudson, running around and causing total destruction. For her birthday, she got a baby doll. Showing some interest in it, but still not that interested. Sissy loves her pap-pap, but she only gets it at night and naps. But sometimes, she sneaks in her room and grabs them. And thinks its the funniest thing!

- She is a hilarious child. Always smiling and has the cutest little laugh! And when she gets tickled, I about melt!

- Sometimes around 5 pm, she gets fussy, but you feed her and she's fine.

- Love her so much! People ask me if I'm sad she's turning one. And I am, but this stage she's in is so much fun! And each stage keeps getting better and better! And she is so smart! She can follow some simple commands like "give this to your brother" or "go put your pap in your bed" Love that Sissy with all my heart!
