16.5 months stats:
- Shoe size: FIVE!! She and Daddy went shoe shopping a few days ago and he picked out the cutest little white tennis shoes with pink glitter and sure enough, she is already a size FIVE! I could hardly believe it. And the best part about her new shoes? They have NO laces! All Velcro, which is so much easier and faster.
- Clothes: 18 months! Unless it's a dress, she can no longer wear her 12 month clothes. I feel like it happened overnight. I bought her some 18mo blue jeans recently and they looked huge, but they fit her perfectly. I'm excited that she has somewhat outgrown her wardrobe though...that means it's time for me to hit consignment sales!
- Diapers: FOUR! This is her newest development. We bought the first box of size 4 diapers today. Maybe this will be the last size before potty training. That would be nice. I am over diapers.
- She officially weighs about 23 lbs and seems to be putting on weight more quickly now that she is eating more "real food."
As far as the adults in this house are concerned, all is well. My latest obsession is with this new swing we got on clearance at Lowe's. I have long been wanting a hammock for our balcony. Alot of people in these apartments have them, but I just wasn't sure how I could fit one around the patio set and Joe's tool cabinet. So I decided on a "hammock swing." It's so comfortable and the weather has been really conducive to using it lately. Braelyn isn't too sure about it. She doesn't care for it.
Grammie and Grampie are flying up from Florida this weekend to look at property (yay!) and take Braelyn back for a week's vacation. It's a joke around here that sending her to Grammie is like hitting the reset button. She comes back on a sleep schedule, a meal schedule and much more independent. I will miss her, but I am really looking forward to all the free-time I will be able to fill with schoolwork and housework.
