Like I said I’ve been meaning to post this for weeks already but I have been waiting for this and that… waiting to make a LO which includes all her milestones and updates. But never got to it. So yesterday I finally put my foot down or rather my butt down and DO IT!!
Sitting here, writing this post I can’t believe it’s been 16 months since our little Caitlyn joined our crazy family. How time flies!! Suddenly she seems like a big girl now. It feel like last week she was a baby and now she is a toddler. Where did the time in between go?
Suddenly now she no longer needs me to:
- give her night feeds and the morning 6am feed (groan) I really don’t know how I manage to get the milk just right?
- carry her everywhere. (She is not the lightest or the smallest baby OK!!)
- burp her. (she sometimes tries to burp me now!)
- make all her pureed baby food.( She wants to eat what we eat!)
Caitlyn’s milestone at 16 months:
- Weights 12kgs.
- About 89cms tall.
- 7 and a quarter teeth. (I think one of the molars are on the way too, but she refuse to let me see!! That explains her moodiness sometimes)
- Runs and walks steadily on her own.
- Able to climb the stairs on all fours.
- Feeds herself fruits and food that we cut into cubes or small pieces for her.
- Able to sing and hum to the songs, especially when we are in the car and Aiden is listening to all his favorite songs. Lately she can pronounce quite a few words to songs like ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’,'Row Row Row Your Boat’ and ‘Old McDonald’.
- Dances as well as she sings! Very showgirl
- New word… ‘NO’ for added drama and effect, she’ll shake her head and pout
( Who am I kidding? Of course this day will come when she’ll learn this word)
- Loves make up. She’ll play with my old blusher and empty compact powder case whenever I’m doing my make-up. And she’ll end up looking like a Chinese opera singer.
- Loves to try on adult shoes. She’ll pull shoes off the rack and try them on when we are out shopping…hmm.. I wonder where she learnt that from?
