Marilyn


At just over 12 months old, Marilyn...
  • is really a very good eater.  Especially bananas, spaghetti, cheese & cookies.  But whatever is on her plate, she usually has no problem finishing.
  • Still loves her bottle at naptime & bedtime.  Did I mention she loves milk too?
  • is comfortably wearing size 12 month clothes and size 3 shoe (although we are getting ready to step up to a 4).
  • takes one "big" nap after lunch (2 hours) but loves a car cat-nap whenever she can get it.
  • is a rockstar sleeper - always good for a solid and straight 11-12 hours.  Clearly this is something that you cherish just like your Mama!
  • loves to play outside with her sister and brother, at the playground, in the playroom, with everyone else's toys.
  • sometimes likes to just sneak away in her bedroom or our room & just play quietly by herself with whatever has caught her eye & attention.
  • loves to snuggle, rest her head on a shoulder while she nuzzles into Mommy or Daddy's neck, & just be held - especially after just waking up.
  • is convinced she knows how to open the gate at the top of the stairs.  She just needs a little help being lifted up to reach & turn.
  • enjoys stroller runs, bike rides with her little helmet on the back of my bike and being pushed around in her little push car that she got for her birthday.
  • loves being the baby of the family but is also trying to be one of the big kids at the same time.
