Height & Weight: 16 lbs 1 oz...height TBD at appointment on the 17th
Latest words: Still babbling and big on saying "dadadada" - every time she does that I tell Andy she's saying she'd like him to change her diaper.
Favorite Things: When daddy comes home/stays home from work, her stacking cups (she prefers to bang these on anything as hard as she can for maximum noise output), she's taken to toting around an extra toothbrush I had laying around (everyone thinks I am a nut trying to get my kid to brush her teeth or something but really she just likes to chew on it), my wooden spoon from the kitchen (might have to get myself a new one), and walking around Greenlake/people/dog watching.
Favorite Foods: Yo-baby yogurt (thank you Janie for the suggestion), bread, sweet potatoes, yams, butternut squash...this kid is going to turn orange!
Dislikes: Definitely has 4 bottom teeth (no top ones yet) and since they all came in all at once it seemed like Hadley was just a little grumpier than normal for a couple of weeks...looking forward to those top teeth now...
Accomplishments: Crusin' - on October 25th she got into a standing position for the first time and took off from there. She is now getting up on any piece of furniture (or person) she can find and taking steps while holding on to get from one thing to another (usually to pull Oscar's tail or grab my cell phone). She is constantly moving and we're shocked at how fast it goes from here - we thought it would be months before she was in this stage. And let me tell you, she is a little kamikaze, she bonks her head and dives face first into things and has no fear...scary sometimes! She also blows raspberries, waves bye-bye and kisses - it is really sweet.
Highlight of the month: First Halloween!
