January 13, 2012 - Elenor thinks it is so fun to watch her Dad play Kinect. Especially bowling, for some reason it was incredibly funny to her. She giggles every time he throws the ball.
No Specific Date - Elenor will not keep a hat on or a hair clip in unless we let her see herself in the mirror so she knows how cute she looks. Then she's totally cool with it and leaves them in.
March 7, 2012 - We have a few of those storage ottomans in our living room. Today Nate was vacuuming and moved the box slightly, a very nervous Ele ran over as wuickly as possible to save her remotes that were on top of the box. She removed the lid and hid them inside so the vacuum couldn't get them. Our baby is awesome!
April 9, 2012 - Listening to pandora's workout mix. Ele had been dancing and her two favorites have both been Ke$ha. Interesting... :) (follow-up - Ele will only let us listen to Blow in the car she has even started singing along. After awhile I thought I was going to loose my mind. we finally have been able to expand our babies taste in music)
April 23, 2012 - I love that my 17 month old reminds me to bless the food when we sit down for lunch. She's cute. (This made me feel like I was doing a better job than I thought. Thank you for tender mercies I needed to think I was doing a good job today)
May 6, 2012 - Ele had her first day of nursery. She loved it and they loved her... It was oddly undettling for me. Two hours of baby free church, I didn't have to multi-task. Oh and she had no problem just hanging out playing the full time, no visits to mommy. (update - She now doesn't like the being dropped off part unless Daddy does it. If I go she cries and I have to sneak out.)
May 10, 2012 - 18 Month stats: 8th % across the boards! She has grown so much, I can't believe how big she is now. She also is AHEAD on all developmental milestones. She is twice the length of when she was born (31 in), and ten times the weight (20 lbs). So crazy!
May 25, 2012 - Ele now takes off her pants and diaper and runs into the bathroom saying, 'potty'. how does potty training seem like such fun to my 19 month old? (Update - now she just wants to go in there every time I do. She sits on her potty, fully clothed, makes her poop noise and asks for toilet paper. She then pretends to wipe and puts it in the big toilet so it can be flushed away.
June 6, 2012 - Elenor is obsessed with clothes. She loves anything pink and cries if we pass by baby clothes without letting her look at them. (Update: she now also really loves her clothes at home. When she first wakes up each morning she points into her closet and say, 'dress' and then I ask her which one she wants and she will tell me if I pick the wrong one.)
No Specific Date - Elenor talks and signs like crazy. Seriously this girl is getting pretty good at communicating. In fact just the other day she told Nate, 'I need more.' In regards to a smoothie they were sharing. I also went to my sisters house and when I told her to say goodbye she said. 'Bye bye Aunt Sarah, Aunt Anna.' I didn't tell her to say their names or anything. She has also started saying sorry this month. and she will give sorry hugs. She understands wait (to a point) and when we tell her to wait she'll sign it and be alright for a little bit. She can ask for all sorts of food whether it's in sign, talking or both. And it truly helps. Also this month she woke up and when I opened her door she pointed at her name sign on her door (it's the same one from the NICU) and said, 'Elenor' it was darling!
