A little messy, but she picked the idea up rather quickly.

Lets Make a Deal
I envision this is what played out here...
Payton- I'll trade you all of my Cheerios for whats in that bowl?
Alexis- I'll give you whats in the bowl, and you can keep the Cheerios if you let me play with your shape sorter?
Payton- DEAL!
Shortly after I found out I was pregnant with another girl we bought this table that just happened to have two chairs. I put each of their names on one. It took more than 9 months, but Payton finally got to use hers! For the longest time Alexis just thought she was lucky enough to have two chairs to choose from. Believe me, she has made use of both chairs! However, I think she enjoyed sitting at the table with her sister. I think for a long time Alexis thought her sister was nothing more than a moving baby doll. Now, she has realized that she is in fact staying and is a real thing. I believe she has mixed feelings about this. They are already fighting like sisters, but nothing makes me happier than the times I hear them play and giggle!

"No Wanna Go in the Pool!"
After weeks of talking about the pool and trying to get her to get in she finally decided she would do it! Unfortunately after only a few minutes she fell under water and prolly won't get in again. She was so traumatized only her pillow and blankie off her bed would soothe her!
Onesie Blanket
This is the start of it anyway...
I got the idea from Pinterest, of course. I saw this idea last week and decided I must do it! So I went in the basement and rummaged through all of her old clothes. I started cutting immediately! I must say though it was quite sad to cut the first few. I love the idea of keeping them forever, but when you do it this way you cant see just how tiny all of these clothes were. However, you just cant keep boxes and boxes of clothes in you basement forever.
This is it all laid out and I have since sewn all the front pieces together. Now I am just waiting to find the right fabric for the back to complete it.

Pears Anyone?
She has been able to feed herself Cheerios for some time now, but we just recently started letting her feed herself "real" food. Aside from all the bites of cookies, muffins, donuts, ice cream cone, etc she has been given from her bad Grandma and Great Great Grandma!
This is her eating cut up pears. She has already learned the art of shoveling her food in her mouth. Prolly got that technique from her older sister... or her Mommy! :)
We just went to the doctor yesterday and they suggested only letting her have a bottle 2 ozs at a time before and after meals. Not really ever heard of this technique. But I went ahead and did it all day today. Of course I gave her a little more than just two ounces at a time... baby steps right? And to my surprise she actually took a sippy cup while sitting in her high chair. Maybe the high chair was the key all along. Wish me luck tomorrow!
