Speck gets a shiner

Speck falls out of couch and gets a shiner on the right side of her forehead. Doesn’t it look awful ? She fell off the couch and hit her head on tile. Yes, there was a lot of DRAMA. 

 

Speck’s first night in her Toddler Bed.

So it took a lot out of me to make the decision to transition Speck from her crib to her toddler bed. Well so far my worries have been unfounded. Yesterday Daddy removed the front rail of her crib and well the transition was set to start. We took our bath and then laid in bed while we read a story and talked about how she is a big girl now and that it’s time to sleep like a big girl. I put her to bed at 8:30pm and when I went to check on her around 10:30 she was curled up in the recliner/rocker in her room. I left everything as it was and came downstairs. Later a friend reminded me that the whole point of the transition was to make sure she slept in bed. So I went back upstairs at 11:00 pm and moved her from the chair to her bed. No crying, no drama, no noise. She slept in quite late (9:30am). I had to actually wake her and when I walked into her room, she was still in her bed. I took a few pictures because I assumed no one would believe me.

Speck goes to the ZOO (first trip)

While cousin Lauren and Zak were visiting we all went to Zoo. This was Speck’s first time to the Houston Zoo, actually any zoo for that matter. She enjoyed the Elephant (which her favorite animal), monkeys, giraffes, and the petting zoo. Being her first time she was a little apprehensive but cousin Zak made her very comfortable. She even got to ride the carousel for the first time with none other than Zak. After the zoo, we went shopping at zoo souvenir shop.

Zak, Mommy, Lauren, Nana, Uncle Drew, Daddy and Speck.

Speck reads with Uncle Drew

She’s not even 2 but she’s got a very special connection with her Uncle Drew. He’s protective, caring, loving, attentive, playful and when he’s with her he acts her age. For a 20 month old, that is the perfect person.
