15 Month's

Height: 27 1/2 Inches
Weight: 18 Pounds
1st Percentile for both

Today we headed to the doctor for her 15 month check up, of course she got shots! Boo my least favorite part of this whole thing. But I had lots of questions for Dr. P this time.

My little Princess has finally gotten down to 2 bottles of formula a day morning and night. She drinks milk and water throughout the day which is great and only took one weekend to witch to milk, but of course of the Princess' time. She is eating a little better every day but she still refuses to eat baby food and pretty much anything that she can not feed herself. I have bought frozen veggies and fruit in small bite sizes and so far they have not gone over well. Of course she like her Mama loves carbs so it's not hard to get her to eat bread, pasta, and mashed potatoes.



We have still been having a tough time switching her to sippie cups because she will drink her water out of it but milk and formula must come from a bottle. I know it will come but it is coming slowly. The good news is that she has always been a Ninny girl and it was great, but she never used it all the time mostly at night or when she was frustrated. For the most part now Ninny is out of the picture, we rarely use it to sleep and that is about the only time. Every now and then you will see her trying to give it to Elmo or her baby doll, so cute.



Oh and on the doll front she has become quite attached to them. She has 2 baby dolls and now we must take atleast one with us every where we go. She carries them just like we carry her, she puts them to go "nighnight", and trys to give them water from her sippie cup (she even makes the sound of them drinking). Working on video for that.

By Olivia's age it is said in the books that they should know at least 20 words. Well, I think we have surpassed that goal. Her vocabulary is larger then any other child her age that I know. She will repeat any word that you say for the most part and the scary thing is that she actually knows what almost all of them are or mean. I think much of it comes from the fact that the girl loves books! She will sit and flip through any book weather its hers or a manuel to something. She will act as if she is reading each and every page. Who knows maybe she is! :) I love that she has been like this since she was really little, she nows comes up to us with a book and will back into our lap and wait for you to read it to her. Now she's not perfect much of the time she is flipping to the next page before I have even finished the first, but I have read them so many times that I can spout them from memory.
