13 month transitions

There have been a lot of changes for Maya in the last month and she has dealt with them all in stride.  I'm continually impressed with her ability to adapt.

- She is officially in the 'little toddler' group at daycare.  She has done so well and her teachers tell us how easy her transition has been.  Her day is a bit more scheduled in this room, which she seems to like.  Meals and snacks are served at little tables and chairs instead of the highchair.  Naps are on a the floor on a mat instead of a crib and she is working her way to one long one instead of two.  They spend a lot of the day playing outside (which Maya loves), have story time, sing songs, paint and run around exploring like the little toddlers they are.

- We have eliminated formula and she is now a whole milk drinker.  The girl can't seem to get enough of it.  It is a tricky balance to make sure she drinks enough, but not so much that she is too full for real food.  We have dropped all daytime bottles and she is great with the sippy cup. 

- New teeth!  The poor thing has cut three new teeth in the last week and a half.  She now has her top four center teeth and her two top molars have broken through.  Add in her bottom two center ones and all of a sudden she is up to eight. 

- She is becoming better and better with her signs.  Please, more and all done are used all the time.  We are working on eat and milk.


 Doing what she loves most, playing outside.
