Almost 13 Months!

I am proud to announce that Annmarie has slept through the night the past two nights! Yay! Yay! Please let this be a new trend. Annmarie is now confidently drinking from a cup! The only thing is she forgets where her arms are and knocks the cup over. She also hasn't put it together that if you tip the cup as you are putting it down, it will spill. Time to pack up most of the sippy cups! I am going to save one or two for car rides and such. She is at about where she was on Thanksgiving with her walking. I am not sure why she back slid so much, but we are finally progressing again.
Thinking of back slides, a couple of days ago in daycare she took a nice little tumble...hence no recent pictures. She has a skid mark all over the front of her nose, to the right of her eye, the center of her forehead, the right side of her forehead, a little one on her chin, a little one on the top of her head, and (finally) one on her right knee. She looks like she got mugged.
Teeth, she's getting two in at once. Either her front teeth are going to be gapped or she is getting one front tooth and one of the secondary teeth. You can see them plain as day under the skin, but they haven't erupted yet. The front tooth is crooked...but the bottom teeth look like they are straightening out.
Today we took a trip to the zoo. I got there right at 9am so we could spend a couple of hours before lunch and nap time. Priority one is keeping to her schedule. We had some really good quality Mommy and daughter time. Of course it meant skipping getting groceries, but we will save that for our next outing. Annmarie LOVED the giraffes and hippos -and it helped reinforce the words on her phonics.
