14 Months

Jade Marie: 14 Months

Finally, a warm day! Jade loved her swimming pool. She especially enjoyed when I got in with her and sang 'Ring Around the Rosie'

Hard to believe this is the same girl who less than two months ago would not have touched sand or walked barefoot in the grass!

Jade has totally hit that next stage of toddler-hood. There are so many things she can identify, including several shapes and zoo/farm animals. She's also understanding a lot of things I ask her, including bringing things to me, finding something when I ask where it is and going to her changing table when she needs her diaper changed. Also, she has become extremely selective in what foods she eats. Up until recently, she would eat just about anything that was put in front of her. Now she picks the tomatoes out of her tomato and cheese quesadillas, spits out her broccoli and green beans if a piece gets into her mouth and throws unwanted items off her high chair. Also this month, both of Jade's top molars broke through and she started her first class at the park district.
