Post Mother's Day Cold Wash

I still love my crazy purple baby!

Look how tall I am getting!
 I can't believe it's been over a month since we've had time to post! And of course, all the pics are blurry.
Mother's Day Cold Wash. Cold Wash is a military term used to discuss a debrief. There's hot wash and cold wash. This is well after the event, so it's a cold wash. Annmarie is 32 inches tall now, weighing in at 24 pounds.  She also now has six teeth at 16 months old!
On the Friday before Mother's Day, Annmarie moved into her very own bed. I didn't want to put her into a toddler bed because it's too far off of the floor. So, I took her single bed off of the frame and put it onto the floor with the bed rails onto it. We also started using a booster seat at the table vice a high chair next to the table. I figured I would compensate putting her into her own room with including her at the table. I don't think it helped.
Her first night in her own room I slept in there with her. The second night, I just stayed until she fell asleep. The third night started out ok, until she fell out of bed in the middle of the night. She turned herself sideways and rolled the entire length of the single bed and fell off the bottom -with a thud. Saturday I also had duty. Sunday, Tori slept in and made me late for turnover. It was ok because the guy relieving me was four hours late. This led to a snowball day that included two more ear infections and a blown up microwave.  I am so glad that day is over. She's feeling better physically now, but she's still pretty mad at me for putting her into her own room. She holds quite the grudge.

Mom's trying to take pics and I am attacking!
