13 Months Old Today

Rachel turned 13 months old today.

I remember when I wrote "Rachel is 13 weeks." Wow, time flies!

We hung out this morning before work and watched Jungle Junction on tv. She absolutely loves that show. One of the only other shows she watches is Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. For those two shows, she will sit on my lap and watch them for 10 - 20 minutes. Nothing else will keep her still that long.

Rachel is constantly on the move. She wants to walk absolutely EVERYWHERE. If we are outside and I try to get her to go somewhere, she will go the exact opposite way. She wants to go where she wants to go and it is always on her own time.

She has been making so many faces these days. Out of the 30 or so pictures I took today, probably about 10 of them have her tongue out or a silly face.

She loves to tear my magazines apart. I brought the Costco Connection in just for her this afternoon so she could have a field day with it.

We have swings over by our pool and I have been taking her there a couple of times a week in the afternoon.

I don't know, but I think that she loves it!

Dinner time! Her favorite foods these days are Macaroni and Cheese, Pizza, almost any fruit, and yogurt. I have finally been able to get her to eat a few vegetables, especially if I stick them in her Mac 'n Cheese. She mostly wants to feed herself. I have issues with messes, so I still only let her feed herself things that won't get too messy.

Bath time! She so looks like she is posing in this picture. What a cutie.

She loves to play peek-a-boo with the shower curtain.

She is listening to music on Pandora on my cell phone while I get her dressed. She loves Tim's and my cell phones and especially loves the music on them.

Her favorite thing to do in her bedroom is empty out her drawers. Her favorite drawer is her pants/shorts drawer. I think it is because it is just at her height. I put her pants and shorts away at least 3 times a day. It has totally become a game for her. As soon as I put them away, I will go to pick her up to take her downstairs and she will try to run to the dresser to pull more clothes out. I wonder what her next game will be?
