Sitting still wasn't going to happen today so I got a picture by her chair.
A couple of things I want to remember about her 16th month:
Notice the sassy orange necklace- She has recently started to wear jewelry or anything that resembles necklaces & bracelets.
She is still wearing size 3 diapers & 18 month clothes. I have sadly packed away almost all her 12 month clothes. She is wearing size 3 and 4 shoes.
As of yesterday she has moved up to the Elephant room- In this room there is more structure. They all eat & take naps at the same time. They also get to play outside which Caroline is defiantly a fan! Ms. Christy & Ms. Brittany wrote Caroline a really sweet note:
She is trying SOME different foods but doesn't stray far from her favorites. I made a list for Nana & Lolly so they could start getting a game plan for what to feed her while Chris and I are gone. There was more on the list on then I realized she liked. 2x a week at daycare she gets blueberry muffins. These have become her new favorite on the cafeteria menu.
She has all 8 top/bottom teeth and has recently popped the back ones out. I went to the dentist today and asked when I should bring her in. He said that he typically sees kids starting at age 3.
Short side story- I bit the dental hygienist today & it wasn't a nibble either. She had been asking me to bite down on that tube thing that sucks all the water out. About 1/2 though she stopped telling me to bite down she just let left it in there and would bite down as needed. I mistook her finger for the white tube and chopped her finger HARD. I was embarrassed but couldn't quit laughing
She is talking up a storm. Her newest words are:
Baba-{bottle} Any cup is a baba
cracker
She now points to things we ask her to. She recognizes faces in pictures. Chris & I gave her all our old phones. She walks around talking on them. She always says "Hi" when you hand her a phone.
She has been a big help watering the flowers. Her favorite part is playing in the water and mud.


A few extra pictures: Just keeping in shape for the little gym. She will actually hang there by herself- crazy kid!
We love our big girl!
