13 month update

A quick little update on Olivia...

Our baby girl isn't really a baby anymore.  Olivia is now 13 months and she is definitely a little person and not a baby!  She is starting to walk with the assistance of her walking toy or anyone willing to help. She is eating 'real people' food, with her favorites being banana, turkey and cheerios. But, she will eat almost whatever daddy and mommy eat. Her favorite activities are bath time, playing in her play house, walking, climbing stairs, pulling mommy and daddy's clothes out of their drawers and throwing them around their room and just playing with her toys. She does not enjoy getting her diaper changed, and definitely does not like sleeping through the night, or taking long naps. Currently, she is popping a tooth (her third one), so she's been getting up every 2-3 hours at night. But she had previously been doing a 5 or 6 hour stretch and then a 3ish hour stretch. For naps, she will sleep about 30-60 minutes in the morning and then 45-75 minutes in the afternoon.
Olivia unofficially weighs 19.4 pounds (done on our bathroom scale this morning) and fits comfortably in 12 month clothing. She babbles and has done a few 'mama' and 'dada,' but I don't think she realizes what she is saying. Her giggle and smile are still the highlights of our day. She loves to people watch and so many people will comment on her smile and how welcoming she is. In the past few weeks, she has learned to wave bye-bye, but at times, she will wave to no one (but it is still adorable). On Tuesday, she will complete her first round of swim lessons. I was the instructor for the class, so Phil and Olivia got to bond while I was the mean teacher making them (and 4 other baby-daddy pairs) get into the cold pool :)
We are taking her 1 year-old pictures tomorrow and I know they will be adorable! Check back in a few weeks to see some of our favorites!
