Stats:
At 16 months, my guess is that she weighs 22 lbs. She's growing like a weed. 12-18 months clothes. Size 4 diapers when she wears them which is not often anymore because she has been peeing in the potty for 2 weeks!!!! She still wears a disposable diaper at night and cloth diapers when we travel. But they are 90% of the time dry. It's been 10 days since I washed a load of cloth diapers. I had to do them just so they wouldn't stink.
Sleeping:
Lana is taking 1 naps, usually 2.5-3 hours starting around 11:30am. She is still sleeping through the night although she wakes up around 6:30a. She will usually play in her crib until 7-7:30am before she demands to be attended.
Words:
She seems to be adding new words all the time but she does use her sign language a lot. She says more, dog, bird, duck, bath, please or "pees," belly or some variation of it. She signs for food, drink, more, outside, potty, please and bath (which also mean pool).
Lana took her 1st steps at 11.5 months and within weeks, she was running. She hasn't stopped since. She really loves climbing right now.
Food:
Lana prefers feeding herself. She is very particular and knows very quickly what she likes and doesn't like. She pretty much avoids all green colored foods. Her favorites are fruits.
Tricks:
Her best trick is peeing IN the potty! We started 2 weeks ago and by the end of week 1 she started recognizing something was going on down there. By the end of week 2, she would walk to her potty, sit on it, sign for potty and say, "Pssssss." This week we had very few accidents and she would usually catch herself and run to her potty. We will start wearing underwear next week. She does NOT like peeing in the big toilet so peeing in public will be an issue. She has been known to hold her potty for 3-4 hours.
Lana starts the toddler program at Montessori in the fall and I'm so excited for her. I think she is going to love it and really enjoy learning and socializing. She is always fascinated when she sees other kids.
