13 Months!

DSC_2489

Our baby girl is 1 year and 1 month old today, and she's starting not to feel like our "baby" anymore.  Sniff, Sniff.  Here's what Maisy is up to at 13 Months:

  • She weighs 19 pounds 15 ounces and is 29.5 inches long.  That is the 75th percentile for height and the 10th percentile for weight.
  • She wears size 12 month clothes, size 4 diaper, and size 3 shoes.
  • Her eating schedule is like a normal person now...breakfast, lunch, dinner, milk from a cup throughout the day and lots of SNACKS!  (she's a Marsh, enough said.)
  • She walks, and walks, and walks, and walks.  She never stops moving! 
  • Her favorite thing to do is whatever her big brother doesn't want her to!  Duhhh! 
  • She loves to read books, she gets so excited when she brings you a book like she can't wait for you to start reading!
  • Same thing with food, she will go into their snack cabinet, bring us a snack and sit there and dance and giggle out of excitement as she waits for us to open her snack.
  • She is sooooo sweet.  I know I say this every month but she just gets sweeter and sweeter.  She gives hugs and kisses on cue now and they are the best!
  • She only has a few words that she says regularly: Mama, Dada, Doggy, Drink, and All Done!  Otherwise she's letting you know what she wants by grunts, squeals, and pointing!
  • She's starting to be able to follow directions.  If we say "go give this to Mommy" or "go give this to Daddy" or "go get your drink" she will surprise us and do what we asked.  She even knows that if she finds a coin on the ground she is NOT to put it in her mouth, she walks right over to Daddy's jar and drops it in then claps because she's proud of herself!
  • She loves to play peek-a-boo with her hands or behind doors, she'll do anything for a laugh!

Oh I love watching this little girl grow.  I'd like to watch it in slower motion...but hey it's fun either way!  Here's to another month of growing and learning and playing...melting Daddy's heart and irritating the crap out of Big Brother :)
