Lilah:14 Months

Dear Lilah-

On August 24th, you turned 14 months old!  You have been such a busy little girl lately!  It's been awhile since I've done a post on your latest milestones. I wanted to be sure to do an update this month because it seems like you are just growing by leaps and bounds!  

 

So, here is what you are doing at 14 months old...

 

You are able to feed yourself.

You are doing such a great job with self-feeding! You love anything you can eat with a spoon. Some of your very favorite spoon foods are yogurt, refried beans, and cereal. 

 

You are full of personality. In fact, you are a little ham and love being the center of attention!

 



Some of your latest tricks are:

Blowing kisses

High and low fives

Giving hugs

Waving hi and bye

Sticking out your tongue

Shaking your head "no"

Nodding your head "yes" (this looks a lot like you are head banging)

 

 





 

You are now saying the following words:

 

Hi

Bye

Ball

Mama

Dada

Pop (when we pop bubbles)

Muah (when you blow kisses)

Uh-oh

Quack, Quack-you know a duck says quack, quack

You also know how to say "milk" and "more" in sign language

 

 

 

You love to dance! Anytime music comes on, you'll stop whatever it is that you're doing to bust out some moves. Commercials are some of your favorite tunes --you really get down to the Empire Flooring, Dale's Seasoning, and Nissan commercials. Haha!

Your signature moves are twisting your hips and bending your knees.

 

You are very independent and love to explore. You're into everything and want to everything we do. You LOVE being outside. Outside is your happy place--you can spend hours outside.



You love to play and you play so hard. Some of your favorite toys right now are: your blocks, Cozy Coupe, PlaySkool Elephant Ball Popper, Ladybug tent, Leapfrog magnetic zoo, and you love to kick your princess ball around.

 

You are a Papa's girl for sure. You are head over heels for your daddy. Whenever he comes in the room you just light up! 

 You are a girly-girl and love to dress up!

 

 

You also are such a little flirt! In fact, you already have two admirers at school. I've been told by your teachers and a couple of parents that some of your fellow boy classmates "talk" about you at home. :) Haha!  Your Papa is not very happy to hear this.

 

We love you so much baby girl!

Happy 14 months!
