18 month survey...hard to believe she's almost 2!


Monthly Survey

1.       How old? 18 months!

2.       Doctor's Appointments: May 21, 2012

3.       Stats:

a.       Weight: 26lbs (75%)

b.      Height: 33.5 inches (90%)

c.       Clothes size: She still fits in some 18m stuff (a few pajamas and some tops), but mostly 2T, especially for pants. Shoes are a 6.

d.      Diaper size: 5, though we could consider moving up to 6's.

e.      Hair color: Getting super blond with all the time she's been spending outside!

f.        Anything else? She had her 18 month well child check-up on May 21st. Her head measured 46cm and her chest was 49cm.

4.       Milestones:

a.       Teething: STILL working on her 2 year molars. I swear they're never going to come in!

b.      Talking: Picking up new words almost every day.

                                                               i.      Words: She probably has upwards of 40 words now and knows almost the entire alphabet.

c.       Other communication: Daddy taught her how to sign "more".

d.      Anything else? She's starting to show signs of jumping but hasn't done it just yet. She can also use a fork and spoon (regular people sized utensils). She's been pretend sneezing lately and it's so stinkin' cute!

5.       Things she likes:

a.       Toys: She's not really playing with toys much at our house. She has some nice outside toys at Mimi & Papa's (for the sand box). I'd still like to get a sand box.

b.      Books: Hop on Pop is still good, otherwise we haven't been reading much because we've been outside.

c.       Songs: Baa Baa Black Sheep, Itsy Bitsy Spider, and the Alphabet song. She has even started singing the Alphabet song along with us when we sing it. Her most favorite is now "5 little Speckled frogs" because she loves to yell "Splash!"

d.      TV Shows: SuperWhy since she's recognizing letters, and Sesame Street for the same reason (plus she loves to say Elmo).

e.      Other activities: We've been spending a ton of time outside lately. She likes to swing, draw with chalk, play in the dirt or sand box, and just run around like a mad woman. She also likes to rough-house with Dad and read books with Grandpa. We've been taking walks in the stroller and trips to the park during nice weather, too.

6.       Things she dislikes: Coming in the house after being outside.

7.       Sleeping: She's still sleeping really well at night but naps are still hit and miss. We've stopped fighting with her, though it sometimes ends up in major meltdowns in the late evening.

8.       Eating: She has days where she eats a ton and days when she doesn't eat much. We just try to go with the flow and let her eat when she asks.

a.       Favorite foods:

b.      Not so favorite foods:

9.       Nicknames: Pretty much the same-there aren't any new ones.

10.   Things we’re looking forward to next month: Father's Day and maybe another trip to the NEW Zoo.
