E update

we had eleanor's 12 month check up yesterday.
everything went well.
she weighed in at 18 pounds 12 ounces (15%) and is 29 1/4 inches long (50%).
she got four shots.
pour thing...the minute she lays on that awful paper, she knows whats coming next.

one thing we were excited about doing was turning eleanor's carseat forward after this appt.
well apparently the newest study (and what my doctor is going by as of two days ago) now wants parents to wait until the child is two years old.
we can switch her to her big girl carset but sorry eleanor- one more year staring at the back of a seat.
however the doc did say that at 18 months we would talk about it again.
depending on her height and whether her feet were touching the seat, we may be able to switch her then.
well shall see.

current E facts:
- finally crawling and almost walking.
- has her two bottom teeth and i am pretty sure the top two should be here any day.
- sleeping 7:30pm -7:45am.
- naps at 9:30am and 3:00pm for 1-2 hours.
-down to nursing only in the morning. this feeding will be dropped in a week or so (or whenever mommy can actually "let go").
- 3 sippy cups of whole milk throughout the day at 11:30 (after her morning nap), 2:45 (before afternoon nap) and 7:30 (bedtime).
- her favorite foods are tomatoes, blueberries and hummus.
- she is quite the talker...i feel like she learns a new word every day.
- she gets more obsessed with her cousins lyla and jett every day.
- she also gets super excited when she sees her uncle "keg" or craig, dada, buddy, grandma (susu and diana), both grandpas, lulu and aunt mere, Deeeee (danielle), bentley and travis. it is so fun to watch her recongnize more and more people!

happy thursday friends!
