Eve has taken an interest in her baby dolls
these past few days and has been carrying one or more of them
around and even sleeping with them sometimes. It makes me
wonder if it’s a girl thing or just availability. We didn’t
have dolls when Lex was 13 months, but if we had would he have
gone through the same phase? We have one scary doll (IMO) that,
when squeezed, says “I love you” and makes kissy sounds. Our
daycare toddler used to carry it around all the time and sit on
it at mealtimes, so we’d all be sitting there eating lunch and
all of a sudden we’d hear the doll making kissy noises under
her butt. It cracked me up. Anyway, one day Lex said, “Eve,
that’s the kissy doll” and now whenever she picks it up she
kisses it :)

We had a scary moment this
evening when Eve took a dive off the changing table! Poor baby.
There’s about a 1sq ft space on the floor, surrounded by the
step stool Lex was on, the changing table and the diaper pail.
She managed to go straight down and hit her head right in that
empty spot. I grabbed her before her body fell and hit
anything, but unfortunately just after her head hit. She cried
for a few minutes, but otherwise seems fine. She was walking
and babbling and all, so I’m assuming she’s ok.
