Well, Shes been walking around EVERYWHERE ALL THE TIME. Every time she falls down she puts her little hands on the ground and gets back up.
I have been trying to teach her boundaries of where shes is allowed to go. She definitely understands no and stop... But she still likes to test me. After I say no she will stop .. and go back five minutes later and try to do the same thing. She will look back at me to see if I'm paying attention and tell her no.
She has also noticed a little cup that's connected on her high chair that she thinks its funny when she throws food in there. Its the stupidest little invention that a High Chair could have. It basically just teaches them to play with their food. She likes to stick food in it. I try not to make a BIG deal about it to her Because I don't want her to think its something that gets her attention. She will look at me before she does it and I usually try to catch her before and say NO.
Today one of her friends Selena came over. Lexie just doesn't know their supposed to be friends yet. She can definitely tell the age difference between each other. Selena is 10 months old. and Lexie is 13 months. Selena was trying to play with her, she was putting her arm out and touching Lexie with it. And Lexie was getting mad and like pushing her away. They just acted like they didn't like each other. They were both sitting in the floor in my living room crying looking at each other! haha. I DON'T KNOW WHY. I think she needed a nap. But, Selena is like the only baby Lexie knows that is noticeably younger then she is. I guess from all the months of Rylee picking on her- taking her toys... etc. She wanted to have someone to take her place. We will see how that goes in the future though.
Yesterday, I tried giving her a bottle of 100% whole milk. for the first time since I was doing the half formula half milk- She drank it all. So, today I tried it again. So, I am thinking she will be okay without any formula. I will give it a few more days to get totally used to it before I give the rest of her formula away.
I have also noticed, she isn't acting like she really likes her apple juice anymore. when I give it to her she doesn't drink a lot of it. She usually just pushes it away unless shes really thirsty. But the minute she sees a Capri Sun she starts her PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE until she gets to drink some. and when their is a Capri sun around their is NO WAY shes going to drink any apple juice for me. So, last time I went to the grocery store I bought some Grape Juice to see how she would like it. She likes it.. I'm pretty sure that its more expensive though :[

Be careful that sweets don't take the place of milk! Milk is far and away healthier! She will like juice better, but she should be limited to 1/2 cup or so at her age, so she gets plenty of healthy milk and other nutritional foods.
ReplyDeletei always put half water half juice in Summer's cups. she still likes it that way. glad she is drinking milk. as far as saying No, I think it is very wise. she needs to know you mean what you say. IMO, if you say no and let her anyway, that just teaches her not to believe you. keep up the No's and give her boundaries. They are good for her!
