Luna turned 16 months on Sept. 13th. As usual, each month she turns older, I can't believe it. It flies by!
Normally I post all of her updates each month, but this month, she has grown so much it's hard to keep up and post. One day she isn't doing something and the next day she is! For example, we have rubbed California baby lotion on her body after bath ever since she was a newborn. And today? She reached for the lotion, pushed the pump dispenser and rubbed it all over her belly. So cute!
Here are just a few of the cute things she is doing and updates:
Verbal: New words are 'honey', 'Luna' and signing 'thank you' now
Social: She is still very social, trying to catch stranger's attention but is also now very clingy. She is going through the separation anxiety phase for sure!
Food: Still loves her avocado, cheese, turkey, yo baby yogurt and black beans. She now likes Red Kidney beans. We ate at Cane Rosso the other night and she just loved their pizza! She is now liking corn more too, but still a pea favorite.
She is now drinking milk but the Horizon Vanilla kind or the Almond Milk mixed with 2 %. I am trying to go down to 2 breastfeedings a day, one in the morning and one at night, but still feeds in the middle of the night, so I make sure she goes at least 6-8 hours between feedings during the day.
Sleep: She is sleeping from 7-7:30pm each night and wakes up once to nurse. Ugh. Still trying to get rid of that one, but the cry it out is just not happening, she screams bloody murder. And she naps once a day from 12-3pm.
The big milestone this month is that Luna is in Mom's Day Out. As you saw in my previous post. She's been twice and so far is doing well, although I pick her up early at 12pm before nap time so she can sleep at home. Plus I have noticed she is extra clingy that afternoon and the day after, so I am still going to slowly transition to her staying there during nap time.
We also started Kindermusik again on Thursdays and love it!! This semester the lesson is on birds and Fall.
There is so much she is doing now, so keep checking back for all of her new cute updates :)
