13 Months Old
















I cannot believe one month has already slipped by on us. Blakely is still not walking aside from a couple of steps every now and then. She liked the lake this time!!! I went to target and bought some of those bath foam letters and have been getting in the bath with her in attempts to make her love her bath time again-success! She loves bath time! YAY!!! So I was hoping that getting in the lake would now be fun too & it was! She still doesn't like getting in her float but she loved us holding her!

Life has been really getting fun lately. Blakely is pretty much always happy these days. She loves peek-a-boo & has learned to now hide from us. She laughs and laughs when you get right next to her hear and say anything. She loves swinging in the swing Kaki bought for the lake.

Our biggest achievement this month is our transition to the sippy-NO MORE BOTTLE!!! So this month we dropped formula & the bottle & she drinks all her milk ice cold out of the fridge (never thought we would get here!) She will not drink out of just any sippy though-only the nuby ones with a straw... It is so funny to me how each and every child is so different! We are also phasing out our paci. Blakely only gets it at night and in the morning we drop it in the crib and say 'bye bye'. Really funny side story-at the lake when she didn't want to sleep at 2 in the AM I am sitting on the floor by the pack-n-play rubbing her back and trying to make her take the paci so she will go back to sleep & then I see her grab the paci and drop it over the side saying 'bye bye'... hmmm she's a lot smarter little bugger than I have been giving her credit for!

So she knows the words bye-bye (buh buh), hi (hiiiiiiiii), hey (heeey), momma, daddy, thank you (tank-ummm) Tank-ummm is a favorite! She says this when she wants anything. I have always said thank you as I was taking something she didn't need to have & well I guess she now thinks that saying thank you means you can take anything-whoops!
