A Sop for Grandmothers

Just a few notes:

Lydia now weighs 20 lbs and is about 27 inches tall, at 15 months of age. We turned her car seat around, although the official instructions would like us to wait until she's 34 inches long, but considering how she's grown so far, that could be until she's two. In other Lydia news, she loves cars, and has a small toy car she has go back and forth with noises. Is she a tomboy? Also she has a small wooden rocking chair she sits in, while holding board books that she flips through while cooing to herself.

Lydia isn't big on words as of yet; she still has her four solids; Hi, Bye, Uh-oh and No, with an occasional Wow as well, but that's it. She does point and grunt for things. And if you pick the wrong thing to hand her, she'll grunt harder while emphasizing what she wants with her finger.

Lydia has fallen in love with fruit; she loves grapes, and eats watermelon, and strawberries now too, although she has rejected cherries thus far. Another staple of her diet is animal crackers; her and her daddy share boxes of Barnum's, the best brand there is of them.

That's the official Lydia update.
