Chloe's growth
chart? Update 12/30/03: New words! Chloe says Bye-bye. She also says Thank You when you give her something she wants. She also does the signs for milk, more and all done. Update 12/06/03: Chloe has some new tricks! She spins around in a circle until she gets dizzy and falls down. She loves to lay on her belly and push herself backwards with her arms. Update 12/06/03: Chloe is learning so many new things! She loves to imitate. She brushes her hair, hums along with songs, and even does some yoga. She can kiss, hug and blow kisses. She can also blow her nose better than Devin does now! Update 11/20/03: Chloe has two teeth poking through on the top. The one on the right showed up first. I'm going to say today is the official day Chloe started walking. She was walking a lot today without holding on and then took like 10 steps in a row tonight. Her balance is amazing! Babies that I've seen who have just started walking look so wobbly and awkward compared to her. She can also stoop to pick something up and stand back up without holding on. Also today, she started doing the bear crawl... walking on all fours. Update 10/23/03: Chloe does the funniest thing now although I don't remember exactly when she started doing it. She does so many new things I often forget to write them down. I like to play "I'm gonna get the baby" with Chloe on the bed. I say it and then lunge toward her. Well, she gets so excited! She turns around and crawls away, sits up and then throws herself backward, landing on her back on the bed. We have to watch her carefully because she gets so excited and almost fell right off the bed a few times! Update 10/16/03: Chloe plays peek-a-boo! She pulls something up to her face and waits for you to say peek-a-boo. She also pulls something down from our face if we are playing peek-a-boo with her. Update 10/13/03: Chloe took her first steps!! She took two steps and then sat down. She also waves bye-bye! And she starts bouncing as soon as she hears music! Update 10/9/03: We took a baby sign language class today and I started signing with Chloe. She can learn to communicate with us even before she talks! She already knows the sign for milk. Update 10/6/03: The bottom left tooth broke through! Yay! Update 10/3/03: Chloe will stand unsupported for a little while now if you put her down. Her first step isn't far away! She'll give you a kiss if you ask for one too :) Update 9/30/03: Chloe stood all by herself for over a minute! She can also take a few steps while you hold one of her hands. If you hold both hands, she takes off running! Update 9/29/03: We joined a playgroup today. Chloe just sat quietly for a while and then crawled around and played a little. There were 2 other babies the same age. One little girl fell and cried and Chloe started crying too. She seemed very upset that the baby was hurt... it was so cute. Update 9/25/03: New sounds... Chloe says "ow" and "wow" now and I swear she said "hello" yestersday! She's standing for longer periods on my bed now too. She stood for 10 seconds the other day. Update 9/19/03: It's official! Chloe's bottom right tooth has finally poked through and the bottom left isn't far behind! Update 9/17/03: Chloe found her tongue last week and sticks it out and plays with it constantly. She even learned how to do raspberries. Click here for a visual! Update 9/06/03: Chloe clapped her hands today! Update 8/31/03: Chloe finally sat up on her own from her tummy. Before she would have to pull up on something and then sit. Update 8/29/03: Chloe is starting to stand on her own now. She will let go and stand for a few seconds before falling on her butt! She's getting into everything and we have to watch her every second. She has started to crawl on her hands and knees instead of always doing the army crawl. She gets upset when you take something away from her or move her away from something she wants. Update 8/11/03: Chloe is making a new sound now, Nana... that just happens to be what they call my Mother-in-law. Her vocabulary now consists of dada, blahblah, mama and nana. She also has screaming contests with me. If I go Ahhh!, sometimes she'll do it back. She also makes another sound sometimes. It's a clicking noise that sounds kind of like the baby raptors from Jurassic Park 3. Update 8/08/03: Chloe's balance is getting much better now. She can get to a sitting position from standing. She started letting go and trying to stand on her own today. I let her do this on our bed because she won't hurt herself when she falls. It just amazes me that she started rolling over only a month ago! Update 8/04/03: Chloe makes the sound "blah" all the time... it's her favorite. She's said mama a few times but only when she's upset. She started eating finger foods like cheerios and cooked carrot and she's doing really well with it. She's already using a pincer grasp (thumb and forefinger) to pick up the food and put it in her mouth. The pincer grasp is a 9-12 month milestone! Update
7/26/03: Chloe uses other things to pull up. And she takes
steps now when you hold her hands! It's so cute... she lifts her
leg up so high, you'd think she was trying to climb a mountain! |
