18 Months :]

Rylee had her 18 month doctor visit with Dr. Wiley.

Her very nice doctor.

When we got into the room and the nurse was measuring her Rylee flipped out.

She didn't want this stranger anywhere near her.

And she definately didn't want to be on the little patient table by herself so daddy sat up there with her.

While we waited on Dr. Wiley to come in we taught her to say "Dr. Ben".

But ofcourse when he actually came in she was scared of him and she didn't want to show him that she learned his name.

This was an even huger flip out! because he needed to check her hips and Rylee was fighting him the whole time screaming like someone was torchering her.

Same thing happened when he tried to look in her ears.

She is at a very scared age. He said its pretty normal at 18 months.

But Rylee is scared alot of the time!

Before Jake would make a monster sound and come play bite her, now when he does that Rylee runs to me and says "mean", she used to love it.

I don't know if all of this started because of Halloween and scary costumes?

Also ever since I last blogged about Rylee still being on the bottle, I haven't given her one.

She has been drinking out of a sippy cup.

Not happily though. At first she wouldn't touch it.

Now she will, the only problem is that she will not drink milk out of it at all. Even if i put juice or chocolate milk in it, if she tastes a hint of milk she puts the cup down.

Her doctor said that this happens alot when you switch from a bottle to a sippy cup.

He said to just try to feed her more cheese and stuff like that.

It's really alot more pressure now to keep her healthy.

I have to make sure she's eating enough fruits and vegetables and now calcium.

It was so much easier when all she needed was milk or formula.

I'm still waiting for the day when she will drink milk out of her sippy cup!!!!
