Week 50: 7 Days of Beckett

Day 344 (1/18);  out for Mexican with Mom & Dad! She does GREAT at this restaurant just keeping to herself and eating beans, rice, chicken and avocado!

Day 345 (1/19); "walking" around at Harper's First Birthday party!

Day 346 (1/20); cooking up  a mess in her kitchen! She loves it - I add things to it all the time, the latest being these little tupperwares from Ikea that are too small for anything we use but perfect for her little baby hands!

Day 347 (1/21); I have so many pictures from this day of her crawling and playing but this one of her peering from around her pack & play where she was playing with off limits stuff like her wipes & cream cracks me up; I'll go "Beckett" and she looks around the corner - heart it!

Day 348 (1/22); the easiest shots to get - bath time! She loves it so much, especially sucking on wash cloths, her bath book and bath toys (and splashing around trying to stand up - eek!)

Day 349 (1/23); Mimi visited from Wednesday - Saturday! They had so many fun times and she was a lifesaver enabling me to get so much birthday prep done as well as not-Beckett-friendly errands - thank you, Mimi Michelle!!

Day 350 (1/24); Beckett back in bath drinking water from her wash cloth. Sigh! This girl is a nut! I think it feels good on her growing teeth!

Likes:

• her kitchen; everything about it, especially the little pans
• her walkers; especially when we chase her around on one while she's on one - so cute
• climbing the stairs - she LOVES it and smiles so hard
• standing - she loves to be up and prefers to be holding a small toy or her sippy cup; normally she was against something (a stool, the couch, a walker, the wall) but this week she stood on her own a lot more and even took a step - eep!
• her new activity space/room - she seemed to like having a new space in the house to play in (helps break up the day when we play in the morning in the living room; midday at the gym's toddler room and then afternoon in the activity room!)
• books - give this girl a book bin and she'll take each out and turn the pages on them over and over!
• things that aren't hers - the dog's bandannas, towels, water bottles - if it's free she loves it! haha
• giving high fives! 
• waving hi
• shaking her head from side to side
• dancing while someone claps their hands or sings
• fingerplays like the itsy bitsy spider are HUGE this week (she'll "dance" when you do it!)
• throwing all of her food on the floor. not awesome.
• her new 3 o'clock snack! (we used to just do 3 meals but now she has snacks, too -she seems to enjoy it!)
• eating the inside of her crib - teething girl!

Dislikes:

• having her diaper changed (it's starting to get ridiculous - like she freaks OUT!)
• having iPhones, remotes, etc. taken from her (same as last few weeks!)
• her baby doll - we laugh because she'll take her baby out of the stroller and put her on the floor then take off with the stroller (like nope, not coming with me baby!)
• teething - another new tooth in - up to 7 teeth (4 on top and 3 on bottom - the new one is on bottom!)
