Height: 31.5 inches
Weight: 25.4 lbs
Teeth: Currently has 8 teeth, 2 of which are her first molars.
Words she likes to say: Brinleigh has reverted to making noises instead of using words, however, she has added a few new words to her vocab recently. She now says "shoos" (juice), "mo" (more), and "Mama" has turned into "meh"? She waves bye bye, blows kisses, and can sign the words "all done" and "more". She recently learned what and where her nose is and can even find Mommy's nose and Daddy's nose.
Favorite Toys: Little people Noah's Ark & animals, Singing Minnie Mouse, purses & baskets, Minnie mouse ride on toy.
Favorite Foods: Squeezable fruit pouches, spaghetti, macaroni and cheese. We are still experimenting with what foods she likes since we just recently started having her eat the same food that we eat for dinner.
Dislikes: Diaper changes
Nicknames: BooBoo, Brinleigh D
Sleep Schedule: Bedtime is at 9pm and she sleeps until 10am. She will wake up once or twice throughout the night and play in her crib and then go back to sleep until the morning. We have her on this later schedule due to our work schedules. Since I am working during the day and Kolt doesn't get off until midnight, this schedule works well for us so that he can get a decent amount of sleep. She also goes down for a nap between 2pm-3pm and sleeps for about two hours.
Favorite Activities: Absolutely obsessed with watching TV. We only allow her to watch the Disney Junior channel and we have had to limit the amount of time she watches it. It has now become something to keep her entertained while we are cooking or cleaning up after meals.
Favorite Song: "Brave" by Sara Bareilles
Favorite Song: "Brave" by Sara Bareilles
Favorite Book: Go Dog Go and her Jungle Animal Book. She absolutely loves to sit and read her books, or look at the pages rather. Sometimes she will get really quiet and when we look to see what she is doing she will just be sitting on the floor looking at her books.
My January goal for Brinleigh was to get her completely off bottles and I am proud to say that as of today, we no longer have any bottles in our kitchen cabinets. Brinleigh has officially been bottle-free for about two weeks now so I packed them away with all of the other baby stuff that she has outgrown. She still gets her warm milk before bed, we just give it to her in a sippy cup instead.
