13 Months

Mallory, you are 13 Months Old Today!  I know you are so thrilled that I didn't sit you on the couch for a photo shoot but that doesn't mean I didn't get my iPhone out to try and take some pics because that is what I do! It's so hard to get you standing or sitting still for 2 seconds because you want to be on the go all the time! You love walking everywhere! It's so hard to keep up with you sometimes but just seeing the big smile on your face when you are walking everywhere is so cute!!

You love to eat! You love to eat eggs and toast in the mornings and will usually eat whatever I put on your plate. Your favorites are string cheese, green beans, chicken nuggets and still Cheerios. We try to all eat at the same time as you because if we don't, you are standing at our feet begging for food off our plate :)

You are sleeping so much better at night and it's been great. You are so happy in the mornings and even more after you've had your milk. You take a morning nap around 10:45 am or 11:00 am and take an afternoon nap around 3pm. You are good about us putting you in the crib and going to sleep on your own. Thank you pretty girl!

You have 7 teeth now ( 4 on top, 3 on bottom ) and I love seeing them all when you smile. It helps you are able to bite things better. You love to say Da-Da, Ma-Ma, Bye-Bye, Uh-Oh, Pa-Pa and Ba-Ba which I'm now learning that means bottle and baby. You also just jibber jabber long sentences so you and I have very interesting conversations during the day!

You wear 18 month clothes and are about to be in size 4 shoes. You are still in size 3 diapers. You still like Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and we've watched Toy Story 2 & 3 probably 8,587 times. You love that movie and thankfully, I do too because many times, we snuggle and enjoy the movie together.

You make your daddy and I smile so much and we are loving watching you learn so many new things! Happy 13 Months!

And let's be honest, like I said, you do not like to sit still for more than 2 seconds so to get you smile in the first picture, I sang "If You are Happy and you know it, Clap your hands" so you would smile and clap :) Below is what you were doing in between. Love you sweet girl!
