Well, Well, Well....

I had to post this one..... Tuesday when I picked Faith up from Mother's Day Out, I was greeted by her teachers. They were somewhat laughing, while writing up an accident report.

Apparently Faith decided to BITE another little girl! She bit her finger and left some marks. I told them I would ground her and put her to bed with no dinner...(obviously I was joking). They did not see exactly what happened or if anything provoked it, but it happened. I apologized with embarrassment and told them to please tell the other mom I am so sorry.....

Hopefully this is not going to be an ongoing thing!! I think something had to of happened, or Faith was just checking out her new teeth to see how they felt! :)

WELL VISIT DAY!

Pictures from this morning!


Faith this morning

Pointing to her Ear when I asked her where it was
Just non stop moving!!


Today Faith had her 12 month well visit at the Pediatricians. Yes, she is 13 1/2 months, but I just hate all these shots their little bodies get, so I wait longer than I am suppose to, and our Dr. works with us to spread her shots out a bit further. Today she was suppose to get 4 shots, but we only did 2. She got her Flu vaccine, and the Chickenpox vaccine as well.



You will be happy to know that she is now 25 lbs and 32 inches tall!! She is in the 96th percentile with height and 89 percentile in weight. Her head is still in the 17 percentile (it has always been small). I guess that is a good thing! She looks very proportionate!



Faith is hitting all of her milestones...she says "Mama, Dada, dog, bird, book, ball, La (for Lacy our dog), Bear, Hi, that, I (for ice...she loves to chew on ice), and one or two other words! For her age, she should be saying Mama, Dada and at least 3 other words!



The one thing we have not done yet, is get rid of the formula completely. Our pediatrician said she should be on whole milk only now. So it is time to wean off the formula. Pay raise here I come!!!



Otherwise, she is healthy, vibrant, and PERFECT!

THE BIG ORANGE PUMPKIN FARM

Ryan, Olivia and Grace

Ryan, Susan and Sydney


Joel, Deanna and Faith





Hayride



Last weekend we went to The Big Orange Pumpkin Farm in Celina, TX. We had a great time, and this will be a yearly tradition! Our friends Olivia, Ryan and Grace as well as Susan, Ryan and Sydney joined us. The girls are all 8 weeks apart, Faith is 13 months, Grace is 11 months, and Sydney is 9 months...it makes for interesting outings!


Faith wasn't too sure about the goats. One was ok, but when several came over to her, she screamed! I don't understand...she LOVES our 85 lb dogs. But when it comes to little 5 lb dogs or goats, cows, etc. She is so scared!



Enjoy the pictures.

Big Girl - 13 Months Today

Faith is really becoming a BIG GIRL now, she 13 months today! And, she is officially off the bottle!! Ok, so they are still in my cabinet, but sippy cup only now! She is SO proud of her new cup and will not let us hold it. She is still taking formula out of it, but I am slowly weaning her off of that with Organic Whole Milk. Within the next few weeks, she should be on milk only! Joel will be so excited, he can't wait for the pay raise! Now if we could only get her potty trained ~ I would be thrilled!

She is finally getting some more teeth. She has 4 on top and working on a 3rd one on the bottom. Which means another bottom one will soon follow!

She is becoming quite the good eater now too! She was so picky, but now she will eat almost anything, except meat. She is not sure about the texture ~ I don't blame her!

Here are a few pictures I snapped with my I Phone over the weekend. My sister called and was missing her and asked for some pictures, so here they are....OH...and her hair is looking more and more blonde too!! YEAH!
