Our Hands Are Full With Hearts To Match

16 Months


I think I will update this meme a little and simply include the categories below (or less) for "off" month (for myself and remembering their milestones and favorite things).

Foods They Like:  They love almost all fruit...strawberries, oranges, grapes, applesauce, pineapple (Seren does not so much Kendall), etc.  They love cheese, ham fried rice, minestrone soup, pizza, zucchini bread, pancakes, etc.  

Foods They Don't:  vegetables aren't popular still.  Also skins of fruit or potato skins get spit back out.

Favorite Things:   They like being chased and tickled.  They love taking baths.  They both love to cuddle and give hugs and kisses.  They like to kiss the dog now as well.  The cuddling has cut back a little as they are more interested in exploring.  Their favorite toy right now is their stacking cups and petting the dog (if you can call him a toy).

Dislikes:  Being hungry and tired.  Getting into trouble or being told "no". Teething again.

Their Accomplishments:  Both Kendall and Seren are confident walkers now.  They climb up stairs (supervised of course).  We're trying to teach them to go down. They seem to be understanding language more.  They are interactive with each other and play pretty well together.

Teeth:  Seren has four on top and four on bottom but no molars.  Kendall has three on bottom, three on top and two molars.  Kendall seems to be getting her teeth in an odd order and is more bothered by teething in general than Seren seems to be. 

Sleep:  Same bedtime routine and usually works well.  Kendall has had trouble sleeping for the last month or so.  At first it seemed to be night terrors as she would wake up exactly one hour after falling asleep and would cry and scream for a couple hours.  Now she is doing better sleeping but having trouble falling asleep.  We are trying to be better at not getting her out of bed unless she needs a diaper change though and that seems to help.

Looking forward to: Looking forward to warmer weather and getting them outside more again.  We've taken them to the park a couple times and they love it.  Yesterday they went on the swings for the second time.  Kendall loved the swing and Seren wasn't so sure.  Also we have sold/closed on our home so we are living with Jeff's parents temporarily, so we are also looking forward to moving to a new location and settling into a home again.
