Hush little baby don't say a word.....

So I love making lists. Here goes:

Things I am doing right by my 14 month old:

1. Transition from feeding bottle to sippy cups to teaching her to drink from a cup and straw.
2. Making her drink buttermilk (thick yoghurt with water) to cool her system, a healthy summer-friendly drink.
3. Not adding sugar to her food, anything sweet she has has natural fruit like banana or apple. She drinks her milk sugar-free as well and seems to like it so far.
4. Monitoring her vegetable intake, I give her planned healthy food ( oats, fruit, vegetables, milk etc)
5. She is semi-potty-trained thanks to Fisher Price's froggy-friend.

Er.........work in progress areas.

1. She sleeps late at night. By the time I'm done with ensuring all of the above 'right' things, I'm too tired to really chart out a systematic bed-time routine. I've moved back meal-times, cut short nap-times and tried the bath, story-book and night-time sleep-training routine. I find myself dozing before she does. Have to work on getting her to sleep early.
2. Weaning. Always a bone of contention between RD and me. I'm too lazy/exhausted to even go down that path just as yet.
3. Letting her watch Ceebeebies while she eats. Have serious doubts whether my daughter will eat brocolli without Mr.Maker, In the Night Garden and Waybuloo. I love their programming and it helps her eat so I'm not really worried about that. But, well, I am a bit of cheater-mom that way. I get my child to eat using television as a bait.
4. Acting a bit silly around her for the sake of hugs and kisses. Pretending that life-size Tigger and little plastic doll, Beth are giving me hugs and kisses when she refuses to. When I carry them and hug them, she'll immediately come crawling and competitively show me affection. I know I'm subconsciously teaching her not-so-right things but anything for a hug or a kiss right ?

And lists go on........
