Hello 2012!

I thought I would start 2012 with a post about what Lila Grace is accomplishing at 13 months.

~Her vocabulary is exploding! She can now say "Momma", "Papa", "bye-bye", "Cy", "Lila", "baby", "hi", "whoa", "owl", "out" (outside), "eye" & "shoow".
~Lila can moo, roar, pant like a dog & make a monkey, a horse & an elephant sound.
~She can sign "eat".
~Likes to try to feed herself with a spoon.
~Will point to eyes, nose, ears, mouth & tongue when prompted.
~Loves to play hide & seek and peek-a-boo
~Has started walking very quickly & backing up.
~Lila Grace loves to eat from a snack cup, leaving a trail all the while.
~Turns pages of books & loves flap books. Her favorite reads are "I Know a Rhino", "Playtime Peek-a-boo" & "If I were a Hippo".
~She is transitioning to one nap, but will occasionally need a morning snooze. Her afternoon nap usually starts between 12:30 & 1, and if it's her first nap of the day, lasts 2-2 1/2 hours.
~Our sweet girl gives lots of kisses & thinks Eskimo kisses are so fun.
~Dances to music
~Loves to "brush her teeth"...aka chew on her toothbrush.
~ She eats basically anything. A few of her currents favs are grilled cheese sandwiches, bananas, yogurt, pizza, strawberries, grapes, strawberry Nutrigrain bars & peanut butter granola bars.
