Now all her mischief occurs at twice the speed. She walks half a dozen
steps before deciding that crawling is faster for now, but it's her
dexterous little paws that get themselves into trouble; I think it's
time to reorganize the kitchen because not only is she dragging out
every piece of Tupperware and every pot or pan she can get her mitts
on, now she's turned to removing each bag from the Ziploc box and
spreading them across the floor. All this happens in the time it takes
to switch a load of laundry. Also, the dishwasher is still her
favorite place, only now she can open it herself if it's unlocked,
stand up on the door and reach in to grab any sharp items from the top
shelf—the little monkey.
She's a book worm. By that I mean she not only enjoys having books
read to her, she also enjoys munching the leafy pages like a
caterpillar. I thought board books were supposed to be somewhat
resistant to this behavior--alas. She has about eight teeth still,
although, come to think of it I haven't checked in a while. Other than
trying to eat books when we're not looking, she also prefers eating
whatever we're eating, so we won't be buying any more baby food.
The good news is that she sleeps better at night, usually from about
7:30pm to 7:30am with a feeding at around 5am then right back to
sleep. She takes two two-hour naps during the day.
She loves coming on bike rides with us. She often climbs into her
carseat several times a day and looks at me like "So, when are we
going?"
The best part is that she gives great hugs. She's a cuddle bug.
We weren't able to salvage any board books from when Lily was a baby. She ate them all to pieces too. The dishwasher thing is new to me though...that's some crazy business. I guess Lily never got a chance to do that because we put a gate up blocking her way into the kitchen, otherwise our tupperware would have been strewn every where too, and I am just too high strung to deal with that 10 times a day. ha
