Adleigh continues to grow and learn and make us laugh every day!

The flu hit the house pretty hard the last couple weeks. It hit me and the Canton (plus strep) which of course made it to Liberty and then Mike. We thought Ad was going to come through unscathed, but this flu virus is mighty powerful this year! But, she handled it well, her first time ever throwing up I think! It was hard to see her so subdued though, she is normally all over the place!

She still doesn’t like to eat much besides spaghetti and green beans. She does have 6 1/2 teeth though!

I think that she is finally starting to put some words and sounds together. She has been so focused on moving, climbing, just being all over the place in general, that words and language development has come later. But, in the last couple weeks she is added “nanny”, “rha rha”, “baby”, “night night”, lots of animal sounds, and “mermaid” (thanks to Liberty’s sudden obsession with Ariel)! She is trying to say “Canton” and “Liberty” too! She love love loves her bro and sis!

She loves to FaceTime, read books, dig in the drawers, and her favorite thing lately has been to ride in the Jeep power wheel with liberty!

So excited to see what she will do next!!

Adleigh is 16 Months

16 months!  Our peanut is getting so big!

She still has 5 teeth, she was the last for them to come in but they sure exploded on her.  At this point Liberty had 2.5 teeth! 🙂

Adleigh is all over the place, this morning I saw her hiking her leg up over the crib.  Liberty was in her toddler bed at this age but Adleigh is too much of a risk taker for that!  She can jump, climb, and flip with the best of them!  Her favorite thing to do currently is dance!  She loves music and loves to twirl.  Liberty got a dancing Sofia for Christmas and it is Adleigh’s favorite thing to do–dance with the Sofia doll!  I could watch her do that all day!

She still isn’t saying too much.  She did manage to say “Ben” when identifying some family members.  On FaceTime today she said “Rha Rha” two times!!

Adleigh is her mama’s girl food wise–she is finally eating more and LOVES LOVES LOVES green beans and spaghetti!!

Very exciting news this month, potty training! She has a definite poop face which I am able to catch the majority of the time.  Still working on number 1, but we are definitely cutting down on the number of diapers.  She’s probably saving $1/day! 🙂

Potty Progress

Adleigh Will sit on the potty about once a day but today she had a big milestone! She started pulling all her clothes off for some reason so I engaged in her game and then she started to pull her diaper off. I asked her if she had to go pee and she took off running for the bathroom and sat right down and went! 🙂

Won’t be too long until the last baby is out of diapers!
