13!

It's hard to believe Shelby's first birthday has come and gone, and we have a 13.5 month old on our hands! We are well over-due for a 13 month post for Miss Shelby. {I am planning to continue the monthly posts through her second birthday.}
Here is what Miss Shelby is up to these days....

--a couple of days after your first birthday, you started doing the official baby crawl! No more army crawl for you!
--you can now pull up to standing!
--you can also go from standing to sitting very well! You are so cautious about it, which just tickles me to death. I have always been the nervous/cautious type, and apparently the apple doesn't fall far from the tree! I always see other babies falling down after they've been standing up for a while..not you! I could probably count on one hand the number of times you've fall b/c you are just so darn careful that it never happens!
--you are now drinking whole milk, and you love it!
--we stopped giving you Prevacid after your 12 month appointment with the pediatrician, and you seem to be doing great without it!
--at about 12.5 months, you started to drop your afternoon nap. Your morning nap was still long (2.5-3 hrs), but you wouldn't always fall asleep in the afternoons. I tried cutting your morning nap shorter to "preserve" the afternoon nap, but that didn't work! So we would just let you take your long morning nap, and then you would have your afternoon "rest time" in your crib. Some days you would fall asleep, but most days you just sit up there babbling and playing for about an hour.
--still booty-scooting all over the place! It is your favorite thing to do!
--you are still a very picky eater, just like your mama was! We still feed you the purred baby food at every meal b/c that is the only way we can get fruits {other than bananas, of course!} & veggies in you.
--you had a rough bout of constipation this month. We are still struggling with it a bit, but you are thankfully doing MUCH better!

We love you so much, Shelby-girl!
