Tornado...

Brother calls me a tornado - can you tell why? 

I managed to break the lock into this cabinet. Luckily, it's all paper plates, napkins, and plastic utensils along with the fire extinguisher. I've also taken my hair ribbon out. Breaking locks and escaping my hair ties are common practices for me. Oh, and the beads for dress up - I LOVE dress up.


I was quite proud of myself actually.

Easter 2011

Easter Morning...

Early morning egg hunt

Easter Dress...

Made by Nana (ladybugs on it).

Fifteen Months...

Today I went for my 15 month well check. 


Here are my stats:

Weight: 20lbs exactly (10%)
Length: 30 1/4 inches (40%)
Head: 43 1/2 cm (3%)

(I've gained 1 lb 10 oz in the past month!)

For fun, click here if you're like to compare to Big Brother T Rex's stats at the same age.

Everything checked out great but I was advised to stop eating sushi (a favorite food of mine) and limit my tuna intake to once a week (another favorite food). I am still drinking breast milk as my milk source. Actually, I have a new found interest in it. The other day at a birthday party a mom was feeding her 6 week old and I went over and asked for a snack! I actually can eat more than my brother and there is not a food that I won't eat. Bring on the broccoli and beans!

Mom and Nurse Practitioner NM also chatted about car seats and the new AAP recommendations for rear facing until age 2. I am actually just barely big enough to technically qualify for forwad facing based on the old guidelines but with these newer ones I'll be staying rear facing for another year. I don't mind. I think I would probably be really unhappy if I had a taste of forward facing but now I just wave at the cars and people in them from my seat.


Peek-a-boo is still a fun game as you can see from the photos below.

I still continue to impress with my vocabulary. Now I'm starting to put some small sentences together...


"Thank you, Mommy."
"All done."
"I did it."


Plus, a few new words and animal sounds:
Duck
Meow-ie
Baa


I have 12 teeth, 6 of which I cut in the past few weeks. Yes, some are molars. 


I do enjoy books especially while having potty breaks. And I am beginning to really enjoy library time each week. Mom and Dad are certain I will want to take dance lessons since I spin, twirl, and shake anytime I hear music.

I did get one vaccine today. Mom asked to postpone the Hep A for another month to spread out the vaccines in case of a reaction. Today I just had the TDaP. 

There's the update. It's such a blessing to be healthy and happy.

Domestic Diva...

Living Up to My Name...

At least, living up to the first part of my name - T Rex Princess.


This is the T Rex household so there have to be dinosaurs around the house, right? Mom pulled out the dinosaurs from storage (we rotate toys). I thought their were most interesting...

P.S. Cutting 6 teeth right now - that will double the number of teeth I have. You can feel bad for me but you should feel really bad for Mom, Dad, and Brother. They are the one's losing sleep.

First Dress of Spring...

A dress Mom found at Savers for $0.99. Can't beat that, right?

Playing with Mack the Truck.



Playing some music while I cook.

Watching Brother from my spot on the table.

Enjoying a cracker.

Owl Pants...

Mom says these pants, made of jersey knit material, were a labor of love but I love wearing them and everyone says they are just too cute.

And those are pretend carrots in my left hand and Snow White in the right hand. Mom and Dad say I am such a girl-ly girl. But rest assured, I can still drive Cars as good Brother, or almost as good as him!
