Squiggler is 13 months!

The Squiggler is 13 months old now! Wow it has been a whole month since her first birthday! She has had such and exciting month! A party, 3 cakes, lots of presents, shots, Christmas(celebrating 3 days in a row with family), going to Disney, Mommy's birthday and New Year's Eve! Wow that is a lot for such a little Princess! Today as usual I took her to JCP's for a small photo shoot. I was going to stop, but then decided that no I want to continue if I am able to. I had the fabulous photographer only shoot a couple of pixs because I didn't want to be tempted to buy a lot. It was good thing to because we ended up having to wait and by the time it was her turn, she didn't want to take her picture after all. She was tired and ready for her nap!

I was happy with the ones we got and bought just a few. Her sister's picked her clothes today and I didn't even take a change of clothes for her. Tonight at dinner the Squiggler started singing. It was so cute and if I can figure out how to post video then I will try to post it soon! She was so funny and had us laughing. She then decided she was going to throw her sippy cup over her shoulder and she almost hit our dog! Poor Fido! (That's what she calls him, but his real name is Woody.) He loves when it's meal time because she always shares!

Squiggler had some new things going on this month and I want to record them for myself. That is why I mainly blog! LOL! Thank goodness for my wonderful sister in laws or no one else would ever read this. I have never shared it with anyone! This is more like an online scrapbook for me until I get in the groove again. I haven't scrapped in over a year!

This month Squiggler:

• has started eating yogurt, grilled cheese and meat.




• still wears a size 2 diaper, a 3 1/2 to 4 shoe size (depending on the shoe) and wears a size 12 months perfectly! For her birthday she was given a lot of size 18 months, but they are still too big for her.




• learned how to open presents. She loves to rip wrapping paper.




• take more steps, but still isn't walking on her own.




• says dad, thank you, ga for grandma, wow wow for dog, hi to everyone, and cheese for when I want her to smile at the camera.




• loves to eat fresh fruit, especially bananas, apples and pears.




• loves to try to put her socks on or pull them off.




• loves to pull my hair and has to touch it before she goes to sleep.




• likes to watch dog movies like Bolt or Beverly Hill Chihuahuas.




• plays peek a boo with whatever she can find around her. She also loves to pull clothes on to her head.




• gives wet kisses and hugs people to show affection. She lays her head on your shoulder and pats you while she is hugging you. It is so sweet!




• has the cutest cheesiest smile!

I wanted to add some more pictures, but sometimes I have the hardest time editing my posts so I will have to add them another time. My 3 girls are such a blessing and today I was telling my honey that I am so thankful to God for sending us these beautiful daughters to raise. I am especially grateful to be able to do it all again with Squiggler. I am in no hurry for her to walk because I'm not in a hurry for her to grow. I'm just taking it one day at a time and enjoying every second of it! I so wish we could win the Lotto so that I could stay home with her 24/7. This often surprises me because I never wanted to be a stay at home mom. Even now I don't think I really really would. I love teaching to much too, I would have to find some happy medium, but since we haven't won the lotto, there is no need to worry about that! LOL! I love you Squiggler! You are the sweetest baby I am so happy that you are part of our family. How lucky am I to be your mommy!
