Happy 19 Months Lily!
Happy 19 months to my sweet little Lily pad! Right now Lily weighs at about 21.25 pounds and stretches about 31.5 inches tall! I realized I forgot to post her 18 months, but her stats hasn’t really changed TOO much in the past month. Her weight was in the 1st percentile, she fell off the charts, so that’s a little bit worrisome, but she seems to be healthy overall. We’re giving her pediasure at night so that she can retain some extra calories, since her weight percentage needs to be higher than her height percentage. We’re trying to give her more red meat and that’s a hit or miss right now, she tends to like chicken more than cows…haha. We had her 19 month follow up today and she gained almost 2 pounds from her 18 month check up, putting her back up at the 5th percentile, placing her right on the line of the growth chart. At least she’s not out of the curve so that’s very good progress! Other than that, she’s growing up to be a very bright and smart little toddler! She’s going to be moving up from the Infant Willow class at LePort to the Toddler class in a couple weeks! She already got a chance to play in the toddler playground and her teachers say she loves it. She’s becoming a pro at drinking from her little glass, and she knows to point out all her facial features when you ask her! She even knows how to say “eyes” and other words very clearly now!

We had her 2nd Christmas celebration and it was even more fun than last year. This year, she knows how to rip open the wrapping paper and is eager to find out what’s inside! She pats on the box once it’s open and wants us to open the toy for her so she can play with it! So smart! She loves her new kitchen set from my parents, and she also really loves her new Trike from us! The video below is of her seeing and riding her Trike for the first time!! Also, Jennifer and Andrew came to stay with us for 5 days for Christmas, and she was super nice enough to take our Christmas pictures! You can view all the beautiful pictures HERE! We’re so lucky to have such a talented sister to capture these yearly photos for us, thanks sissy!!!
Lily also got to go to Vegas for the first time! We managed to sneak in a picture of Lily hitting the slots at the airport, she was very intrigued! Haha, but it was only for 30 seconds and then we wiped her hands right after that to clean all the germies off!! We had a very local experience at Vegas since I didn’t want to take Lily to the casinos where all the second hand smoke were, so we did a lot of local things around Alvina’s community like taking her to park, and then we visited the Container Park, the Children’s Discovery Museum, and we even got a private tour of Zappos where Alvina works!! We also got to see AMAZING Christmas lights at the cactus garden at the Ethel M’s Chocolate Factory as well! I’ve never seen soooo many lights in one place before, it was so cool! Lily loves looking at the lights and pointing at everything and saying “woooo”!
Happy New Year – 2014
Lastly, I leave you with this super cute video of Lily dancing with her teapot in her jammies and a video of her running off with a new toy she wanted at target! Enjoy!
whoo hoo! 5th percentile! Good job saying “eyes” Lily! What an adventure you’ve been having!
