Quinn: 16 months!

Hello.  I'm 16 months old today!

I was trying some new clothes on her, so I figured I'd use these photos for her monthly update.  :)

Age:  16 months.

Weight: We'll find out at her 16m well baby appointment on Friday, but somewhere around 21-22 lbs. is my guess.

Height: Again, we'll find out Friday, but somewhere around 30 inches.

Size: Size 3 diapers.  Size 3 shoes are quickly becoming too small, so we're on the hunt for size 4s.  She's wearing mostly 12-18m but a smattering of other sizes.  She's wearing anything from 3-6 months up to 18-24 months, depending on the item.  The 3-6m stuff is mostly dresses, now worn as tunics with leggings, pants or shorts, the 18-24m stuff is mostly tops worn currently as dresses.  :)

Hair: It's really growing.  Still scraggly.  I still can't bring myself to cut it.  See the scraggly in the photo below?

Teeth: 15, with #16 appearing any moment.  We knew the teeth were coming -- her drooling has been out of control.  

Sleeping: She's still sleeping great, although we've had a few issues here and there with getting her to sleep, mostly when she's been sick.  She's still going to bed between 7 and 8pm and wakes for the day between 6:30 and 7:30am.  She's pretty consistently taking one long nap around noon for 1.5-3 hours.

Eating: She loves soy milk.  Other than that, she's pretty picky right now.  Not eating as much, but she'll still try just about anything you give her.  She'll throw it on the floor if she doesn't like it, but at least she gives it a try.

Movement: Climbs on anything and can usually get down safely.  She's afraid to climb down the stairs, though.  She's fallen a few times (just a few stairs) and I think it has scared her.

Milestones: Talking up a storm.  She will repeat anything we say and her vocabulary is astonishing to me.  She's just as strong-willed as her brother.  If she doesn't get what she wants, she'll dramatically throw herself on the floor and cry.  She's also so sweet and a bit shy around strangers.
