Pipi, does she like yogurt?  It always helps with those nasty rashes caused
from antibiotics.  V

Subject: [blparent] Savannah's 18 month update

As i sit here and write this, it's hard to believe Savannah is 18 months 
already. I don't know where the time has gone so quickly.
I want to apologize for any repeated information. I can't remember what I've

written where lately.
First the stats. She weighs 22 pounds 6 ounces. She is 32 inches tall. She 
is well proportioned and right around the average mark for these and head 
circumference.
She still has ear infections in both ears. She will finish out her 
antibiotic this weekend. She is also working on getting her molars which 
isn't helping the ears. Diaper rash is getting better. I did get a 
perscription from the doctor since the antibiotic causing this won't be 
finished for a few more days.
The doctor says Savannah looks great and she praised me for doing so well 
with her. I asked if she had any concerns and if Savannah is on track. The 
doctor says she's doing great.
I tend to worry a bit.
Savannah is starting to make sentences. She says  "I want milk" on a regular

basis. She has 2 other sentences that she's said a few times.
I still haven't stopped to write down her words, so I am not sure of how 
many she says.
Savannah loves going for walks. We do this at least 4 times a day. Every 
time I have to take out the dog, we have to go for a walk.
We will be going to the zoo this weekend. She has been before, but when she 
was only about 5 months old.
My questions are, what else can I be doing with her. We read, do art stuff, 
play with balls, she has a play hut she loves, a few leapfrog toys. She 
loves music. She's finally getting into her baby doll and little people doll

house. She has a shopping cart and play food she loves.
I'm just always looking for new things to do. I want to keep her as 
stimulated as healthily possible.
pipi
