I can't believe our little girl turned 15 months old last week! It is going by too fast! I had her weighed when I had a dr. appt. last week. She is still 3 1/2 ounces away from weighing 20 lbs. So she is still in the infant car seat. Poor baby! I can't fit one of those convertible car seats in my Saturn. We went car seat shopping yesterday. We found one we thought was good, but didn't buy it yet. And it was actually $10 cheaper at Target, versus Walmart. I will probably pick it up next week. It got too late last night. Sydney is one busy girl these days; and very talkative. She know some animal sounds; cow, pig, dog, duck andf sheep. She thinks she owns all the chairs in the house. It's impossible to keep her down all the time. We've only had a few small falls so far. She loves to look at the "baby" (her) in the scrapbook. I can't keep her out of them when I am in the computer room. They are right at her level. I guess she could be getting into worse things. She continues to be "mommy's helper". It's so cute. Every time I get into the freezer downstairs to pull out meat for dinner, she has to take it up for me. Or when I need something out of the refrigerator, I call on my little helper to get it out for me. She's so proud to help. She loves to help with the laundry too. We are still working on cleaning up toys. Some days are better than others. One of her favorite toys right now is the laundry basket. She loves to push it around and pick up her toys and books. Then I try to show her how to put them away. We started going to the library a few weeks ago to a group called "Music and Movement". They sing songs and walk around. She is enjoying that more each week. It's so nice for her to be able to interact more than just Sunday. I'm weaning her from nursing. She's doing pretty good. I only allow her to nurse after 6pm till bedtime. I've stopped the nursing in the middle of the night a few days ago. I try to just rub her back to get her back to sleep. She actually slept all night last night. YEAH! It was so nice for me! I think I may dry up before she is ready to stop nursing. I want to nurse her for a few more months, but I'm not sure my body will allow that. She says lots of words. She only says one at a time usually, but we are so proud of her. She says, mama, dada, more, bye bye, pee pee (she says that when I'm changing her diaper, it's so funny), me, big, she's trying to say her cousin Sabria's name when she sees her on the computer, mine, bite, drink, baby, pretty, eye, teeth, night night, balloon, ball, no.... She also can finally nod her head yes. She is getting her fourth new tooth this month, so that makes 14 total! We are finally down to one nap a day. I usually read to her with lullabies softly playing in the background. She usually only lasts 10 minutes. I'm going to start doing that at night, since she falls asleep nursing. I forgot the best thing. I'm teaching her how to pray. She picked up quick on it. As soon as I say, lets say our prayers, she runs to the rocker in her bedroom and folds her arms! We are blessed to have a wonderful daughter who teaches us so much each day!
