16 months

Update: Our crazy chicken is 16 months! She still had 0 teeth, she learned new words like bubbles, nana, hi, bye! She learned how to brush her hair on her own. She is pretty much running! She is currently in 12-18 month clothing and size 4t in shoes! Lastly, her favorite food is anything dipped in ketchup!
Trips and outings: We had an emergency trip to the island to go see Dad's sister since she was in rough shape. It was a really rough trip, we had a flat tire when it was snowing badly, when we got to the island the power was out from a wind storm for the whole time. Our favorite parts of our trip was going to see Mom's sister, auntie kotarah, she enjoyed playing games with us, and we had a turkey dinner for christmas. We got to go on a ferry for the first time, and enjoyed talking with lots of other people on the ferry. Another highlight of our trip was the attendant at the hotel we stayed at, he truly made us feel like family, and made us feel right at home. He was great to bond with and chat about life with.





He let us make a mess of the travel brochures, take lots of extra oranges for Macy, etc.
We also celebrated new years playing games with our friends molly, brett and emiley. It was fun everybody played all night long!  The toddlers made it to new years better than the parents!

15 months!

month update: Just a few days after she turned 14 months she officially took her first steps on her own! The next day she was walking on her own without so much convincing and she chooses to walk whenever she can! She says hi, bye and waves every time she hears it! She learnt how to go down the stairs by herself as well as up the stairs! Her favorite thing to do is throw her toys off the banister to the landing! Her favorite dog is definitely ruff and now that she is walking ruff is finally warming up to her, she loves to cuddle her! She can officially play peek-a-boo with her hands, she loves only walking, and holding hands while she explores the new world through a different view! Changing her diaper is like being part of a WWE match, and she is so busy playing, making messes, and giggling all the time!
Trips and outings:



We hung out with our friends Ashley, Aubrey and little sammy again! Macy loved cuddling with little sammy and shared toys with Aubrey. Macy really enjoyed playing in their ball pit, and bouncing aubrey in sammys bouncy chair.










We went to our friend Ryker's birthday party at the collicut. They had their party in the fieldhouse, they had a bouncy castle, tons of little push cars, baby walkers, hockey sticks, hula hoops etc. The sky was the limit with how much stuff to have. Macy really enjoyed the walkers, and the bouncy castle. She loved bouncing on it and sliding off of it! She tried her first vegan cake and it was a hit, she had it all over her! She got excited and clapped every single time Ryker opened one of his presents. Their party was a huge hit for Macy!








We got to meet the grinch and had a photoshoot with him at a petvalu. It was supposed to be for dogs but we just couldn't resist meeting the grinch! Macy got to wear a dress that mommy wore when she was around her age for the picture!



We went to the festival of trees with grandma and our friends Molly and Emiley. We got to go view the trees (although not good with toddlers that want to grab everything). We painted a birdhouse, we got to decorate a tiny tree with tinsel, and we got a santa hat with her name on it in glitter! It was super busy but we had a lot of fun with our friends!





She had lots of sleepovers with her grandma, and we she now has a new adopted grandpa. Grandma's neighbour Laurence, she loves to cruise the halls of grandma's apartment holding his hand!

14 months!

month update: She still has 0 teeth, forever teething! Still not walking on her own, but loves to push her walkers and hold onto one hand and walk! She still loves her white puppy, she loves to dance, she is beginning to "talk" more. We had a bad month of illness in our house and she was hit as well, but that never got her down. She was still happy as ever even though she wasnt feeling well!
Trips and outings:
Macy went trick or treating for the first time! She didn't fully understand why we were saying hi and bye so quickly. She thought if we were going to their door we should go inside! After a few houses Macy finally got the concept and she got excited every time she got a goodie in her treat bag. Her dad and I helped walk her house to house to ring door bells for candy! She was so proud of her loot as well, was swimming in it when we dropped off grandma at her place.
We also went to the abbey centre with Dad, we went up the big kid structure with both myself and her dad! We took her down the slides and she enjoyed climbing up to the top of the structure. She wanted to chase the bigger kids, but couldn't keep up!







13 months!

Month update:
She still has 0 teeth! We are beginning to work on the walking, and she took a few steps by herself! Her favorite toy is her white puppy that aunt geminie and uncle norman got for her! She has gotten quite cuddly this month and will snuggle up to anyone! She learned to start sharing her food with the dogs (bad habit) and with anyone that is trying to feed her!
Trips and outings:
She went to the pumpkin patch for the first time! It was chilly out and she was teething so she didn't enjoy it quite as much! But we loved seeing what kind of activities were at the patch! We enjoyed our time with our friends Char, Ivy and Ryker at the patch!
We also got to hang out with our friends Ashley, Aubrey and got to meet little Sammy! The girls played quite well together, they were a little bit shy, but enjoyed each others company!

trips and outings: This month was such a busy month! We went to the island to go visit her aunties Christina and Auntie Kotarah! Auntie Christina was sick in the hospital, but by Macy going there it made her feel better. She loved to pinch auntie, and loved to be held and loved by her. Macy went swimming with her Auntie Kotarah and Uncle Ryan and loved trying to tear apart their house! Auntie Kotarah didn't realize how many things babies can get into! We got another visit from Julie and her youngings, we went to treehouse and enjoyed playing with her kids! We went to the zoo with our cousin Saphire, and got to meet Auntie Nikki.
