19 mos old!!! 8:18pm

Time flies when you're having fun!
Grace is 19 months old today!
 
 
Last weight:  18 lbs. 13 oz.
Diaper Size: 3
PJ's size: 12 mos
Onesies: 9-12 mos; Pants 9-12 mo.
Favorite toys:  Anything she can hold & shake & put in her mouth!
Monkey; Laptop; Loves to Play Catch with her Ball.
 
Smiles all the time & is a very happy baby!!!
Grace knows how to wave, she claps & signs "more"
Just recently (this weekend), when you ask for a kiss,
Grace will put her hand to her mouth to blow you a kiss!!
 
Grace has 4 bottom teeth, 4 top teeth..
and all 4 molars are coming in!!
(thus the fingers are always in her mouth!)
 
Grace is eating 3 meals a day via G-tube..
her schedule is 9 a.m., 1 p.m., & 6 p.m.
we try to accompany table food meal with two of those feeds.
Then in the evening, she has 3 more g-tube feeds, for a total of
750 ml's (25 oz) in a 24 hour period.
 
When she wants, she can drink from a sippy cup..usually water.
She holds anything you put in her hand, and licks it..
bread, toast.. pretzels..
she loves savory/spicy foods..
we've learned to thicken flavorful foods with baby oatmeal, bread crumbs,
or even mashed potato flakes..in pureeing soups..
she eats all table food..no more baby jars.
 
 
Grace is a great traveler!! She's been up to visit Noni & Grandpa in
Lewiston, NY (near Niagara Falls);
and many visits up to North Conway, NH.
 
 
Grace is just learning she has a voice.. she has always said "HI"..
and now she's continued making more sounds daily..
 
 
She's doing great! And we feel blessed every day that she's in our lives!
Happy 19 months, baby Grace!!
 
 
 
 
Love,
pattie & gary, Grace & max
