Kiera--15 months!

15 months already--Wow!  Kiera has developed alot in the past 3 months since she turned one.  At one she only had 2 teeth and now she has 6 and is working on two more eye teeth plus her molars!  Needless to say--she is not sleeping or eating very well and we find EVERYTHING in her mouth!

Kiera's Stats at 15 months:
Weight: 26 lbs. 5 oz  (89%)
Height: 32 inches (89%)


Some other things about Kiera right now:

  • She can now walk on her own!  Started walking on July 1--what a great birthday present for me! I love the Frankenstein walk!


  • She climbs on everything no matter how big or small, she will find a way to get to the top of it!  
 
  • When she sees a picture or a stuffed monkey, she immediately starts saying "ooh, ooh, ahh, ahh!"
  • She will smile and actually say "cheese" when I point the camera at her. It is great and I love this stage--I get the best smiles!
  • She can say Mama, Daddy, Jade, cheese, yah, shoe, baby, and then just grunts to get whatever else she wants. But she can fully understand what we tell her to do.  She will bring us our shoes, pick up toys for Jade or come when we ask her to. She is one smart girl!
  • Her favorite toy is her polar bear--she carries him around the house all day and then cuddles with him at night.




  • She loves to play outside, especially on the swings and in the water.  It does not matter how cold the water is--you will find her splashing in it! She is also thinks she is big stuff when she "rides" her sister's bike--really she just sits on it and goes backwards--but she loves it!
  • She is very tenderhearted and will still cuddle with us.  She sleeps with 5 stuffed animals in her crib at night, then will throw them all out in the morning and holler until one of us goes and gets her.  We get her out, she squirms to get down and proceeds to put all of her animals back into her crib--it is super cute!
  • Sleeping: Sleeps from 7pm til about 7-8am.  Down to 1 nap a day and that ranges from 1 hour to 2 1/2 hours.  She needs 2 naps but will take two anymore:(
  • She still drinks at least 3 bottles of milk a day--sometimes that is all I feel like I get her to eat.  She is not a great eater right now.  But she does enjoy cheese sticks, chips, frozen gogurts, and anything sweet. I am really beginning to wonder if she really is not eating because her teeth hurt, or if she is just waiting to see if we will give her something "good and sweet."  She put up a fight to eat her noodles the other day and spit them all over the floor. I gave up so Daddy gave her a cucumber and Pringles and she devoured them!  Her current favorite thing to do with her food is rub it in her hair or stick it to her forehead!

Enjoy some pictures of our sweet little Kiera bear--I think they tell their own story!
