The Big One!

Height: 31 inches (95th %)

Weight: 21 lbs 2oz (50th %)

- You have 12 teeth :)

-  You are walking! Since 11 1/2 months

- Your favorite foods are mac n cheese, avocado, waffles, granola bars of any kind, cereal of any kind, fruit and veggie pouches, chicken, ground beef, turkey We are working on getting you to eat whole fruit and veggies instead of mashed in pouches, but I don't think you like the texture yet.

- You have quite a few words now: dada, mama, go, no, uh oh, dog, baby, more, Minnie (the mouse), moo, boo, a da (all done), agi (again), bock bock bock (chicken), if i ask you to say anything you usually respond with the correct inflection or the correct number of syllables. I have a feeling your vocabulary is about to explode.

- You love to dance, you wave your arms around, twist, bounce up and down on your knees, and you love to dance with me in the kitchen while we wait for Daddy to come home. You definitely have my love for dancing but unfortunately my skill level too ;-)

- You are beyond silly, especially before bedtime.

-You love to have me read books to you and you usually want me to read them over and over. You get a little upset if I don't. Your favorite books are touch-n-feel books and Peek-A-Who.

- You love to push toys around the room and enjoy you stuffed animals and baby dolls the best. You love to hug, kiss and dance with them. It's so sweet to watch.

- You love to eat paper products... toilet paper, card board, books, but your favorite are baby wipes...gross

- You like to give kisses, especially if it makes us laugh. Then you will just keep doing it until you are laughing too.

- You sleep with two blankies and your sound machine going and will sleep from 8:00pm-7:00am

-You have definitely been a snuggler lately. For awhile now you have been too busy to sit and snuggle with me. Oh my goodness these past few weeks you have done my mommy heart some good. Maybe its the molars you are getting in but I'll take whatever I can get :)

-  You and Rollie have turned a corner. I think you affection for her is mutual now, especially that she knows where you are food is near by.

 You made me a mommy. You gave me purpose. I will forever be grateful to God for such a wonderful beautiful gift.

Happy First Birthday Sweet Girl. Mommy and Daddy love you so much!
