Bree's 15th Month Check-Up

On March 5th, 2012 Bree had her 15 month check up...yes, my baby is really 15 months old!!!
She is changing and growing so much every day! Here are her latest stats:

17lbs 13ozs (below 3%)
28 inches long (below 3%)

She is a tiny squirt!!! But she has a personality that packs a punch! She is so full of sweetness and funny quirks! And no, nothing is wrong with her because she is so small, she is proportional and just petite, and WE LOVE HER THAT WAY! I have a feeling she will be riding rear-facing in her carseat to her 2nd birthday! Here is a list of things to get you up to speed on all things Bree:
-She loves, loves, loves her daddy and mommy!
-She yells daddy the second she sees him at the door!
-She wakes up with lots of smiles and funny baby gibbering!
-She has started to repeat just about anything, as well as lots of her sister's actions! The other day Emma was holding her nose to talk funny, so Bree started holding her nose and talking...it was so stinking cute! She also finds it quite hilarious to hold my nose to have me talk funny!
-She is wearing 6-9 month cloths. Her carter's brand 9 month pajamas are still a little long on her, and her carter's brand 6 month onesies fit just right!
-She knows where her nose, toes, feet, fingers, ears, eyes, and head are as well as other body parts, but her fave by far is her bee-bo (belly button, comes from the Sandra Boyton book 'Belly Button')
-She can perform just about any task we ask her...put her diaper in the trash, throw something else away, bring me a toy, go find her cup from a different room, pick up toys. She will also bring me her pajamas when getting ready for bed, and lay down for me to change her diaper.
-She knows who Cinderella is and says it sooo cute.
-She totally loves tutu's and how they make her feel!
-Loves to dance! And is so stinkin' cute when she does! She will shake her tushy on command! She has mastered the art of spinning in circles quite well!
-She is totally in love with her baby dolls, burps them, holds them and says 'shh, shh, shh'
-Loves chocolate, pasta, fruit, peas, strawberries (especially strawberries dipped in chocolate), chicken, suckers (which she doesn't get often), and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. She doesn't care for beef or much other meat yet.
-She enjoys walks and the park. She will climb right up the steps and go down the slides (Emma was scared of the slides til she was well past 2!)
-She is really getting into books and likes to sit in her crib and look at them before nap time and after.
-She loves, loves, loves her big sister! But can totally hold her ground with her now. She also instigates things now and kinda likes to bite when fighting.
-She loves to gives hugs and kisses!
-Says the cutest 'nigh nigh' for good night!
-She has captured my heart in a way I never knew before and is pure joy in my life!

January Pictures

Here are some pictures from January. Wow, time is flying and blogging has moved way down to the bottom of my to-do list...but I enjoy looking back at the posts, so I want to try and catch up!

We also had a big milestone on January 3rd...Bree's last nursing! She was 13 months 1 day old. We were down to 1 feeding before bedtime, and she never cried! What a blessing it was for me to achieve my goal to nurse both my girls, neither one had an ounce of formula. We didn't even attempt a bottle with Bree!
Enjoy!

Goofy Bree!

Emma playing in the snow!
(yeah, like the only snow we had all winter!)


Emma being Emma! LOVE THIS KID!
