13.5 months

Shello everyone. I'm updating just to update & because I can't sleep. Little miss is in 12 month clothes & still size 2 diapers, they fit just fine. I'll probably keep her in them for a while longer since they go to 18 lbs. Size 3 doesn't start til 16 & honestly she probably won't be 16 lbs for another 2 months. We do use size 3 snug & dry at nights because she needs more absorption & huggies are smaller than pampers. I get frustrated by size 12m clothes because of the great variance. Some 12m are getting small which other are still quite big on her. Doesn't help she's so skinny. Lots of 12m pants are too big in the waist but 9m pants/shorts are too short. Oh well, I love my petite princess.

We still don't have a walker but that's good. She's quick enough on her hands & knees. She used her walking helper/toy yesterday by herself. It's been a battle trying to get her to use it but she did a little yesterday, then while I was messing with my phone I saw her use it walk towards her couch. YAY! I was quite happy! She's climbing now. We got her a little tikes slide but one that has a "rock" wall you climb up first & she's climbed that once. Now she nows how to get up on the couch which scares me crazy. Daddy lets her play with the remote & his phone so now she gets up there to get mommy's. If mommy puts it on the back of the couch she stands up on the couch to get them. She smiles real big too because she knows mommy says No & means No. Little miss has BIG attitude like her mommy. She will give you the serious look & she's quite an animated jabber. She gets her arms going & expressions going. It's so funny & I love it. It's going to be fun when she's actually talking. She says mama, dada, hi, & a few other things. She likes to wave & say hi. She's use to dada coming home from work so anytime someone walks in you hear "hi dada, hi", even when I walk back into the house. Daddy's girl much? Much too much! She loves to be read to & will hand me books now(I keep a few on the end table next to where I always sit). She's a really good eater when she wants to be, variety & amount. Still not so keen on meats but loves to eat what mommy & daddy are eating. We have breakfast together every morning & she'll share with mommy. She tends to tease everyone else but she'll share with me. She's also a good kisser. For the longest time she'd kiss everyone else but not mommy. Now she'll kiss me all the time & not so much daddy. All I have to do is make the lips & she'll kiss me and sometimes she'll insist on being kissed. My lovey baby. :) Katie is pretty much a happy go lucky baby or toddler which is really nice. Her happiness rubs off on you. I'm sure most babies are like that, it's just nice she is too. Being a mom is the best thing in the world & I still can't believe she came from me. It still awes me that I was pregnant & I was given that amazing gift, to know & feel my baby growing inside of me. Katelyn, you are so loved!
