13 Months

Addison turned 13 months on Monday! Here are 13 things she is doing lately:

1) She is walking everywhere! No more crawling, and even trying to run!

2) With the walking comes a lot of falling and bumping, but she is so tough and just gets right back up and keeps going!

3) She is very attached to her mommy lately and will cling to me in new places, with new people, if I leave the room, etc. (I am treasuring every moment, since she used not to cuddle very much!)

4) She now has 2 bottom and 2 top teeth and is working on 2 more on top.

5) She is still a great eater! She wants everything that mommy and daddy are eating and will do the "more" sign and point to everything on the table and everything we're eating (even if it's already on her highchair tray!).

6) She is still a great sleeper (except when teething!) and sleeps from 7 pm-6:30 a.m. and takes 2 naps still (most days).

7) She is having more of an opinion now and will throw mini tantrums sometimes if told "no" or if we take something away that she's not supposed to have.

8) She is always giving me big hugs and kisses, which I absolutely love!

9) She loves playing with her dolls and being "mommy"- pushing them in a stroller, feeding them a bottle, covering them with a blanket-it's so cute!

10) She is imitating a lot of words and saying about 13 words spontaneously.

11) She loves other kids and waves to them, smiles and gives her friends hugs.

12) She continues to be such a happy girl and always has a big smile on her face with her cute dimples!

13) She is such a joy to be around and truly brings a smile to my face every second of the day!
