16 Months Old

The Melmo (Elmo) Obsession has begun :)

I guess I am mostly responsible for this by showing her Elmo videos on YouTube for a while now, but I don't know what it is about that little red guy that little kids just love.  I see lots more Elmo in our future.

Food: Avery is a great eater.  Her breakfast usually consists of blueberries, bananas, and yogurt. Her favorite is YoBaby blueberry flavor or at least that's what she tells me :)  We try to make sure she gets a fruit, veggie and meat for lunch and dinner.  I haven't quite figured out how to eat together as a family still.  She usually eats around 5:00 and Joe and I don't normally eat until 6:30.  I guess we need to meet in the middle somewhere :) I would love to get the point where she doesn't have to have her own separate meal.  Guess I need to start planning a little better.  If anyone has any suggestions I'd love to hear them.  We've been so lucky so far that she isn't a picky eater.  She will eat just about anything you put in front of her.  New things this month is green peppers, salmon, and teddy grams. 

Sleep: I sound like a broken record, but Avery still is an excellent sleeper.  Bedtime is usually 7:00 and she sleeps until 7-7:30ish.  We are still figuring out the nap schedule.  Some days it's two and some it's one.  My goal is to get her on a long one nap schedule by this summer.  Fingers crossed.

Playtime: Books remain her favorite thing, but now she really enjoys books with pictures of her family.  She loves flipping the pages and calling out people's names. She also loves her make-up vanity she got for Christmas and she recently took an interest in her building blocks.

Sounds/Words: Avery tries to repeat everything I say to her, so now it's time to watch my mouth :) 

Teeth: 12 teeth and her bottom eye teeth are poking through at this very moment.

Milestone(s): SNOW DAY w/ mama!!!

New Places/Travels: Playdate w/ Logan Tuttle on MLK day.
