14 Months Old

Today totally snuck up on me: it wasn't until I received my "What Your 14-Month-Old Is Up To" email, that I realized today Blake is really 14 months old. As my battle with Blake's hair continues, I tried out a rubber band tonight that she quickly yanked sideways. It did allow her face to be seen in her pictures!
She also demanded a daddoo, so I didn't get any pictures with her smile, but oh well. I took what I could get from this busy bee!
At 14 months:

• Blake is completely a walker! Her balance has improved greatly, and she runs when she gets excited, like when you tell her it's time to take a bath. She squeals and runs to the bathroom. Blake also likes to drink from the faucet while bathing.
• Blake wears size 3 diapers and size 4, going into size 5 shoes,
  
• and wears 12 month size clothes (occasionally an 18 month shirt).
  
• She still pulls out her clips and bows (sometimes they stay in!),
  
• loves to help and do jobs, like throw trash away, get a diaper, or pick things up for you,
  
• LOVES playing and walking outside, and helping water plants,
• loves books, and
  
• waves at everyone everywhere we go!
• Blake will "hhhhhuuuuuuucccchhhkk" at whatever she doesn't like or doesn't want to do
• is drinking her milk more and more white, and less chocolate every time
  
• rubs her tummy when something is "yummy" or when we say something is!
• likes to clap, especially for herself when she accomplishes something,
• and tries to snap by rubbing her fingers together (too cute!!)
  

Blake lately has found one of my purses she just loves! She drags it all around the house everyday. She's pulling it in this picture, along with wearing only one of her new sandals! She wouldn't let me put them both on her, but she loved the one she was wearing!
