Daly Family: July 2012

Well Mommy's goal was to get Paige off the Bottle and Pacifier this summer ... or at least before I had to go back to work. So first we stopped the bottle a week before her 15 month bottle. She did pretty good at lunch and at night with drinking her milk in her cup but the morning was tough. She drank her milk from her cup but she would cry and say... "No Dilky in Cup... Babba". It was the saddest but funniest thing to hear her say. She was off the bottle in 2 days! Not bad.

Now for the Pacifier.. aka... PIA....all summer I worked on only giving her her PIA at nap time and bed time. So she was used to not getting it in the car. Her first official day with No PIA at all was on the 23rd. I told her the PIAs were in the trash and she said to me... No trash Mama!!! Nap time was rough but only cried for 30 minutes. As for Bed Time.... YIKES!!! AN HOUR & 15 MINUTES!!! Daddy was pretty sad but she did good... she didnt wake up at all during the night! 2nd nap was only a 10 minute cry session. Cross our fingers how tonight goes!!

Time to pack away all of the bottles and pacifiers!!!

Exhausted after 30 minutes of Screaming!!!

My Big Girl no longer has a Babba or a PIA!!!

Weight: 20 pounds

Height: Shoot I forgot to ask the doctor!

Shoe Size: 4

Clothes: Paige is wearing between 12-18 months. 12 months fit her good but some 18 month clothes are fitting her pretty good

Teeth: 8 Teeth!!! 4 on top and 4 on bottom!

Immunization: Paige received 3 more shots at this visit. Daddy even went with us this time. I think Daddy had a harder time then Paige with the shots. Poor Daddy did not like seeing his baby girl crying.

Doctor Visit: Dr. Sheth said Paige is doing WONDERFUL!! She loves how much she is talking!

Eating Habits: Paige pretty much eats EVERYTHING & ANYTHING! She especially LOVES her Veggies! Lately she prefers to eat veggies and fruits only. She still eats her meats but they aren't as important to her then her veggies. However, PIZZA is her favorite meal and I hardly give it to her. So its hilarious when I ask her what would you like to eat and the word Pizza comes out of her mouth. Paige enjoys snacking on Cheerios, Gold Fishes and Fruit Snacks. I have done a pretty good job on keeping the sweets away BUT her TiTi and TiTi M cant seem to keep the sweets away from her. I still minimize the sweets but i have let loose a little bit. Even Dr. Sheth said sweets are ok for her.

Walking: Still a Little Pro at Walking and attempts to run!!!

Talking: Oh this girl does NOT stop talking! Shes a mini mommy!! This little girl repeats everything she hears!!! She really studies your lips and tries very hard to repeat what we say to her. Her vocabulary list is so long that it would be hard to list all the words, but here are a few of her new words that I just love. Mingo means Flamingo, Beep Beep means she wants daddy to honk the horn, Buckle U means she wants me to take her out of her car seat, Dilk means Milk. These are just some of the funny words that she says on a daily basis. Now what word is mommy & daddy working very hard to get out of her vocabulary.... Yep a two little letter word.... NO!!! everything is NOOOOOO. this girl!

Personality: Paige's personality is hilarious to me. She is such a sweet, lovable little girl... however she has a Sassy side to her. We are really working on teaching her how to SHARE!!!!

Signing: Paige's signing skills have increased tremendously!! Daddy & I are very proud of her! She is able to sign lots of words.. Lets see what she can sign.... Milk, Thank You, Mom, Dad, Eat, More, Ball, Play, Bike, Bird, Dog, Shoe, Doll, Please, Book, Read, Stop & Go.

Some of her Likes: Paige is OBSESSED right now with BOOKS! I am so glad that she loves books and being read too! We have books everywhere, my car, bills car, the diaper bag, hall closet, her room, and family room! She always has a book in her hand!

Some of her Dislikes: Ummm... I don't think there is anything that stands out in my mind that she doesn't like...That's a good thing and I hope that's a sign she will like lots of things!
