Likes/Dislikes: Maggie is still such a cuddle bug, loving to everyone and so good at making people smile with her big grins and baby blues. She's really getting into baby dolls, trying to do somersaults like big sister, playing doctor and kitchen. She's not a fan of being told no, people (or dogs) getting in her way (yells at us to GO!) cutting teeth, ear drops and getting randomly pinched by Emma.
Development: These last couple months have been huge for Mags and it has been so much fun to see her grow and learn new things. The biggest development since our last update is that she started walking shortly after turning 14 months. Always the cautious one, she is finally really starting to feel easy about it all and walking with more confidence and getting quicker. She is such a big talker....big time. She repeats everything and is really clear in her words. She can say: pease (please), mo (more), mommy, daddy, mma (Emma), Nana, Papa, I-yee (Rylee), ank ew (thank you), et it go (let it go), bubble, no, go, uh-oh, puppy....the list goes on and on. It's fun to see Emma recognize and get excited over Maggie's vocabulary too. She holds up one finger when we ask how old she is and raises her hands when asked how big she is. A painful development she is going through is cutting three of her four canines in 12 days with one more that is close behind. Emma has always cut her teeth all at once in such short spans and while it is BRUTAL for all, I just keep reminding myself that at least the process isn't getting dragged on. She's also developed her second ear infection since getting tubes in June.
Sleeping: Nothing has changed on the sleeping front. Still going to bed around 6:45 p.m. and waking about 6:30 or 7:00 a.m. She is oh so cuddly when getting tired and we adore that time. We know she is ready for bed when she starts rubbing her eyes and playing with her pony tail. She has done this since she was about six months and plays with it as she is falling asleep in her crib too. Also still taking two naps a day.
Eating: Cutting her molars and now her canines have thrown Maggie's eating off a bit. She now randomly won't eat fruit or foods she normally eats. Kind of picks around, but if we have a cartoon on to distract her, she will eat more.
