| ...but Olivia Pig and I need to go now... |
Sylvie now weights 17.0 lbs (3%) and stretches to 29.75 inches (70%) (for those interested, Elsie weighed 17lbs, 4oz (3%) and stretched to 28.5 inches (25%) at this age). She wears size 3 diapers (when she uses disposables), 12 month clothes and size 2 shoes.
Sylvie still wakes three or four times a night to eat, and consistently takes 1-2 naps a day, totaling about 2 hours.
Sylvie has 6 teeth, and we suspect her one-year molars are on their way.
Sylvie started walking a week before her birthday. She'd been toying with the idea for months, but aside from a few steps here or there, she was perfectly happy to (speedily) crawl around. The big change started with a Friday play date with 20-month-old Junia, during which Sylvie seemed quite interested in this "big but not so big" kid and how she moved around. Over the next two days, she practiced scooting along furniture, then taking a few steps on her own all the time. By Sunday night, Sylvie was successfully standing up, walking, and sitting down again whenever she wanted to. What a big girl! Turns out all she needed was the proper motivation!
Other things our big (little!) girl enjoys these days:
-knocking over towers
-dancing to toys that play music
-pulling books off of book shelves
-bath time and water play
-mimicking anything Elsie does
-exploring kitchen cabinets
-hugging stuffed animals
Communication:
Words Sylvie says: Ma (mama), Da (Daddy), mamama (milk), ja (yes)
Signs Sylvie does: good-bye and hello (waving), "all done", yes (clapping), "high 5", eat
Signs and words Sylvie understands: no, "sit down", bounce (jump), dance
