Lauramae


She is just the sweetest thing. She's laid back and easy going but she'll let you know if she's offended. She's a talker like Coralee was. We're constantly saying, "Did she say what I think she said?" Her new favorite word is "Mine!" She's a picky eater but not in the typical kid way. She doesn't like bread.... at all. Occasionally she'll steal part of my sandwich but for the most part she waves it away. Now, she'll eat Grandma's yeast rolls or similar ones but no bread. We've started getting her soup - broccoli or tomato at sandwich places and she loves it. Her absolute favorite food is beans & rice. She's infamous for a refried bean moustache. We don't order her a kids meal at a Mexican restaurant, just a side of rice & beans. She'll eat all of hers and a good bit of ours. She's a short little thing but thankfully has started growing again. We were set to go to a pediatric endocrinologist to check out growth hormone issues because her height on the chart was heading so far south. By her 18 month well check she had grown a good bit and was back on the chart. Her weight is much higher on the charts so she looks like a little chub. Her head is so big (95%) that she has a hard time righting herself when she stumbles & falls. Poor baby has scratches & bruises on her head from falling over. She loves playing outside with the big kids. Well, she loves doing anything and everything they do. Recently, she's started asking to go to the potty from time to time. She doesn't do anything in the potty but she likes to wipe and flush the toilet. Momma's not ready for 2 on the train but it's pretty cute when she makes her requests.
