having a late lunch

sofia caught my cold and woke up sick yesterday. she is still sick so she slept through lunch today. she is having a tuna sandwitch, some veggie melts, a banana and pear puree, and some milk. i love plum organics products because they mix fruits and veggies in one puree pouch. sofia gags on veggies so the mixture is softer on her delicate palate. and the best of all is that they are all ORGANIC!!!
YUMMY :)
DON'T KNOW ABOUT THIS SANDWITCH THOUGH!!!

Sofia Grace 14 Months Old

July 17th- August 16th 2012 At 14 months old, most babies are walking and just now getting use to cruising around the house.Now is the time to baby proof everything if you haven't done so. They like to move things from one place to the other and they like scooting things across the floor. They are able to speak many words and repeat words they hear. Sofia can do many things that she should be doing this month for her milestones. She hasn't been to the doctors much since she has been born so I don't know how much she weighs. And that is a blessing that she is healthy, she is such a joy to our lives. I see her picking up objects all of the time and placing them in another places. She wants to do whatever Olivia is doing, so she follows her all over the house. She likes to walk down the hall to her room where she takes toys out of a toy bin and quietly plays. She sings and rocks a baby doll back and forth as if she was rocking her baby to sleep. She pays attention to the small detail on every abject that enters her hand. Sofia drinks out of a bottle but she is drinking out of a sippy cup and she is now using a fork with meals as of today. I gave her some chicken on her tray but I just placed the chicken on her table and she picked it up with her fingers. She is starting to eat like a little pig so to teach her table manners I gave her a fork. She concentrated very closely on how to get the food on the fork and she slowly put the food in her mouth. When she couldn't get the food on the fork she just picked it up with her finger and moved on the next piece. It was amazing to watch her try so hard at something and she's just a baby. I think she is very smart, she reminds me of her sister. Last night when we were at Donny's parents house, Donny's father came in the house with two piggy banks. He bought a pink one for Sofia and a purple for Olivia which is her favorite color. Sofia was so excited to get an object from her PaPa. She walked around the house with it in her hand so tightly until he showed her that you can put money in it. That made her so excited that she walked around asking for money from everyone. I was amazed that she could take a coin and put it in a very small slit in the bank. When we were at his parents house today she grabbed Donny's moms phone and started playing with it. I watched her take it, play with it for a minute, and put it right next to me right before she walked away to find something new. Donny's moms came in the house like 5 minutes later and asked for her phone I told her Sofia took it. She asked me for her glasses too because they were right next to the phone. So I asked Sofia if she took Nanas glasses and she shook her head yes. She disappeared behind the couch and came out holding her glasses. I was amazed and shocked that she did that. I am working on her communicating without getting frustrated and just screaming her brains out instead of trying to form words. She will start screaming if I don't understand her when she wants or needs something. I tell her to ask for what she is reaching for instead of screaming unitl I give it to her. I will just say milk, milk, milk until she says it even if she is still screaming. Sofia has 6 teeth in the top and two on the bottom and she loved practicing brushing her teeth. She starting to say daddy and mommy instead of dada and mama. She's starting to climb thing and she scoots her toys across the floor. She is an amazing little person and I enjoy watching her learn and grow.
