Rachel: 13 - 15 Months

By the time Rachel turned 13 months:

• She got her 3rd tooth - though not middle front  - the one beside her right eye tooth, making her look like a little half vampire
• She had used about 20-25 different words (not all of them on a regular basis, though)
• She could string two and three word sentences together "No, don't touch!"
• She cut back to nursing about 3 times a day: morning, naptime, and before bed.
• She started feeding herself her own bedtime bottle after nursing 
• She started sleeping through the night more consistently (Hurrah!!!)
• She had started taking more steps on her own but not walking well
• She started pretending (mainly to eat play food)

By 14 months:

• a few more teeth (ouch my nipples)
• still nursing a few times a day, but usually only gives it a good effort the feeding before her morning nap
• walking well
• CLIMBING EVERYTHING: couch, bed, playroom chairs!
• I would say, "one..." and she would say "two... three!" when going down the slide, etc

By 15 months:

• sings "EEEE IIIII EEEEE" randomly, but also to 'Old MacDonald'
• 6 teeth total, finally all four top front.
• walks forward down stairs by herself (hanging on to the railing)
• still nursing 2-3 times a day - even comfort-fed a couple times (so exciting because she hasn't done that, like, ever.)
• still has two naps a day occasionally (10 - 11:30 and 3 - 4:30 give or take) but working her way down to one. Finally.
• Has probably around 35ish words in vocabulary (seems like she hasn't made a lot of advancements in her vocab since the first big burst, but I think it's because she was been working on gross motor skills instead)
