I've been reading this mother's blog for the past few months and in her every entry, I can feel her love for her kids. It makes me look forward to parenting! haha! It must be fulfilling seeing your kid grow up day by day. I'm so gonna paste two of her entries in mine so i can share it with you guys! Here it goes: Saturday, September 28, Lizette turned 18 months. I can't believe how fast time has flown by. She is changing everyday. I LOVE it. It is so much fun to see her little personality shine through more and more. She is definitely more opinionated now that she is 18 months. She knows how to throw a fit when she doesn't get what she wants. But she is starting to learn that Mommy and Daddy almost always wins (yeah, right) Lizette's vocabulary is growing everyday. Just today, I brought her out of her bedroom and right outside her door is a box of diapers, which has been there for a couple of days. She points down and says, "Elmo." I was in shock, because we haven't seen Sesame Street in the past month, and we don't have Elmo related toys. I put her down and I asked her to point to Elmo and low and behold she did. The only way that I think she could have learned it was from her cousin, Chloe, with whom we played with yesterday. Some of her favorite new words are: I'm sorry More Please Thank you Mine - she learned that one when we babysat her cousins for a couple of days. Outside Fishes Elmo Lizette also loves to sing. She sings all the time, and she loves the songs with the actions. It is so cute to see her do the actions to the songs. She also loves to dance, especially to the ABC song. Her favorite songs to sing are: The Wheels on the Bus Popcorn Popping How Much is that Doggy in the Window Ring around the Roses ABC Lizette also loves to read. I catch in her room sitting in the glider, reading book after book. She loves to read to her baby. I love that she loves books.As for food, Lizette is just like her Mommy and Daddy, and she will eat almost anything. She is really a good eater. She LOVES her fruits and vegetables. But her two most favorite things to eat are Goldfish and salty black licorice. She asks for them everyday. She knows where we keep both, and she will point and say, "more, peez". As for some of her favorite fruit, I would have to say, apples, pears, bananas, and oranges. As for some of her favorite vegetables they would be tomatoes, broccoli, and carrots. She also loves her rice. Lizette has 12 teeth now. She has 8 front teeth and 4 premolar teeth. At her doctor check up, the doctor said that it look like her eye teeth are going to be coming in soon. Everyone says that they are the most painful teeth to come in, but I don't know why, it is just a pointed tooth. Unlike a molar that is a huge tooth compared to the eye tooth. But, what do I know?Lizette went to her 18 month check up, her height is 33 1/2 inches (90th percentile) and weight is almost 24 pounds (35th percentile). The doctor lectured me again, that she needs to eat more. BUT she is ALWAYS eating. For goodness sakes she still has cute baby rolls on her legs. I am not too concerned that she is going to waste away to nothing. This is their family photo.. How sweet!  Here's the other entry of hers that touched me: So Lizette was sick the whole weekend. On Sunday she was the worse. She wouldn't move or eat she just wanted us to hold her, lay on the ground or in the beanbag chair. She would point to the Television and say "Phishes". She never really watched the movie straight through, because she would always get up and run around. But she wanted the fishes. So we rotated between The Little Mermaid, Finding Nemo, and Monsters. In the evening Tyler was holing Lizette, and she was saying, "Mama, Mama". So I stopped what I was doing to hold her; 5 minutes later she puked all over me. Immediately after, she said, "Dada, Dada". The joys of having kids. She was so sick, I couldn't be mad at her. Being a parent is never easy. So much of sacrifices to be made to bring up a child. I hope I will be a good parent in the future! I will work hard to give them the best! |
