This last month has been fun and a little frustrating at the same time. She had been sleeping amazing and I knew it would have to come to an end at some point but it came very abruptly. She is going to bed around 8 but is now waking up at 7:15 or so each morning. Her nap time has also been on the weak side, she is only napping for about 90 mins sometimes less and so by 6 at night she is crabby and ready for bed, but she refuses to take a morning nap. So there are afternoons and evenings that seems really long. Other than her sleeping issues she has been great.
She finally got one of her top teeth in, so the count is up to 3. She still eats 3 bottles a day and 3 solid feedings each day. She loves applesauce and oatmeal with yogurt mixed in. She has finally mastered waving, she only really likes to wave hello and mainly only to me and Craig, but I'll still count it. She claps anytime we say "good job" or "good girl". We finally had to purchase a gate for the stairs because we would turn our back for a few seconds and she would be half way up. She has started to find her balance a little better. She will only stand for 3 or 4 seconds before she sits down or grabs onto something, but she does it on her own now without me having to force her to. She still loves to walk along everything and walk holding onto our hands, she is getting pretty fast at it too. She now has zero hesitations to crawl all over the house, if we turn our back for a second too long she will just disappear. She loves to play with her new toys that she got for Christmas. She is obsessed with her burp clothe, she treats it like a binky. She sleeps with it and loves to suck on it if she is upset or tired. In the morning or after a nap when I go to get her she will hand it to me and it is soaking wet, but it allows her to put herself back to sleep at night, so it works for me. She now looks forward to go to the gym each morning and go to the child watch. She will reach for the ladies their and loves to play with the other kids and the different toys that they have their. I know it sounds kind of selfish of me but somedays I stay at the gym for quite a while because I know she is happy and it is less time that I have to entertain her at home. She continues to be a happy baby and it is so fun to see her continue to grow and develop. I can't believe she is almost 1.
She helps me with the laundry by pulling everything out of the basket and then climbing in
we had some nice weather a few weeks ago so we were able to get out for a few walks
