Devynee - 16 months

Time continues to pass, Devynee gets older and continues to stubbornly decide not to walk!

I kid.

Kind of.

Let's look at little Devy at 16 months:

  • Devynee continues to sleep through the night, but has transitioned to just one nap a day.  This gets a little annoying if she happens to fall asleep in the car at 10 a.m. and I can not make her take an additional nap in the afternoon (well, I can try, but she won't fall asleep) and then is exhausted at bedtime.  Most time, she naps from about 11:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. or so.
  • Devynee is still in size 12 month clothes as mama is too lazy to get out the next size of clothes.  She wants to delay and just get it all switched out when it finally gets warm.  We shall see if this plan continues to work.
  • She wears a size 3 or 4 shoe depending on the brand/style.
  • She will walk across an entire room one minute, and then refuse to stand on her legs the next minute. We will never have to say that we forced her to do anything.  Devynee only does what Devynee wants to do.
  • Devynee continues to love her dad the most, especially when he comes home from work.  If he is not fast enough at taking off his coat, the entire house hears about it.
  • Devynee still doesn't have any additional teeth at 16 months.
  • She has perfected the knee walk.  She is completely upright, but walks on her knees instead of her feet.  This has ruined several pairs of pants as it was warm for a few days and she was doing this on the cement outside.
  • Devynee now says Grandma (mah-ma) and Grandpa (mah-pa) and always does the signs when she says their name.  She continues to refuse to say her siblings names and I can't think of any other new words.
  • She does not like animals and even screams bloody murder when looking at the puppies behind glass at the mall. 
Devynee is a sweet little thing and is such a joy in our family.

Anytime that Devynee will humor Kendree and let her "hold" her is the best day of Kendree's life.
 But then she always has enough.
 Mama is usually able to convince her to sit for one more picture.
