  • She is just over 27" tall
  • She weighs just over 16 lbs
  • Most of the clothes she wears say size 3-6 months (but she is still fits in some 0-3's)
  • Still in a size 2 diaper
  • She was crawling at 8.5 months
  • Walking at 9.5 months
  • Loves sweet potatoes, cottage cheese and bananas
  • Still taking two 1.5-2 hr naps a day
  • She makes sounds for dogs, cows and horses
  • Has learned to stomp and "dance"
She has learned a bunch of signs: (*these are her favorite ones)
