Our little peanut will be a year before we know it. Here are some of the things that she has been doing since October:
First of all she decided to grow 6 teeth from the last week in October to the 2nd week in December, can you say "slobber"In the process she got a couple of colds and a really bad ear infection (so bad that she started breathing really shallow so that it wouldn't hurt her ears). I was really worried about her , when the doctor starts to talk about meningitis you get a little concerned.
She is becoming a pretty good eater, she is not one for sweets, she likes her food a little on the salty side. Apparently she is not related to her father!
She has started to try and take steps on her own a lot lately. She decides that her head wants to get more then her feet do so she ends up face planting after a step or two. I think that by her birthday she will be crusing around all by herself.
I have to be honest, she is not a very good sleeper. She still wakes up at least once a night, and when she is not feeling well it is more than that. It is probably my fault because most of the time I go in and nurse her (yes I am still nursing!) for a couple of minutes. I have just started to let her cry/scream more often. Boy does she have some lungs!
She is really addicted to nursing!! She loves loves loves it. She won't suck on a sipi or a bottle. She just chews on them and lets the liquid roll down her chin. I really have no idea how I am going to ween her? I do promise I will cut her off before she is at least 5 JK Ha Ha ha. My goal is her birthday, wish me luck!
She is finally saying "mama" with clarity!! Mind you she has been saying "dada" for months. She shakes her head and finger "no no no". She says "whatssat". She loves to rip, tear, ruin, eat, chew... anything that is paper. She has destroyed the majority of rayces soft back book and a bunch of our soft back novel. She wants nothing to do with thick pages!
She is obsessed with water, she loves to get wet. She practically puts her head under the water when she is in the tub, I can't wait for summer and Seven Peaks!
She loves her dog Rosy! She is always opening her mouth for Rosy to give her a kiss and opening her mouth to lick or bite Rose's hair. Rosy is super protective of Pea. If anyone comes over and they are trying to pay attention to Lanie, Rosy gets between them and Lanie and starts to lick Lanie. She wants everyone to know that she is hers not theirs!!
Lanie can show you where her eyes are and sometimes her mouth.
She is obsessed with her brother, she loves him more than anyone in the whole world (too bad he doesn't feel the same).
She is a daddy's girl, she has that man wrapped around her little finger a million times. He truely thinks that she can do no wrong!! We will see how things go when she is a teenager!
She is super busy and really good at making messes, especially of things that she shouldn't.
She loves to laugh, and seriously is always happy, even when she doesn't feel good. She is a great little baby and we are so priviledged to have her as part of our family. We are so blessed that she was sent to our home. WE love you Pea!
What a little cutie!
Our little peanut loves the water muy mucho!
Lanie started walking in January. She is a bit of a Gumby, at least she bounces off everything. She loves food, especially cheese! She burned her palm on the 9th at Grandma's house (on thier fire place) while Mom and Dad were at Body Worlds. She healed really quickly. Grandma felt awful, she cried and cried.
