Last week Lily took 3-4 steps several times all by herself! She currently is up to 7 steps and it takes a lot of encouragement, but she is on her way to walking independently soon. She loves to stand up not holding on to anything and squat down to touch the ground and then stand up again. Going outside is Lily’s big motivator to walk, she bangs on the door and loves to crawl out, but I don’t like her crawling around on the pavement, so she has to be on her feet.
Lily loves her purse and is perfecting her balance of walking with the purse on her shoulder.
This month Lily’s vocabulary has taken off, she will try to say anything you ask her. She loves to hear herself sing and will wave and talk to anyone who will listen. She is at such a fun age of interacting more, but she still has some of the cute baby left in her. At 13 months Lily is talking more than Andrew did at 2 years of age. She has 3 teeth weighs 18.5 pounds and it looks like she will be keeping those pretty blue eyes.
Lily has her own opinions now and will let you know what she thinks. She strongly dislikes getting her diaper changed, getting her clothes changed, taking a bath, riding in the car seat, and watching Andrew eat something she can’t have. When I carry her though the laundry room from the garage she will throw herself to the pantry shelves to tell me she wants a snack. She will eat almost anything or at least try it. She is my party girl, she would rather skip a nap to play or go somewhere and will be in a good mood all night as long as she is entertained.
It has been a fun month full of lots of changes for Lily, she is perfecting her communication skills and is getting more and more mobile.
