Weight: 20.6 lbs
Height:
Sizes: You are wearing mostly 12 month clothes. Some of them are a little big on you, so you still have a few 9 month things (especially pants) that fit. You are wearing a size 4 diaper.
What you're up to:
- You really have a personality, let me tell you. You are definitely stubborn, but we're trying to work on that. :) You are just so funny. You smile and flirt with people in Wal Mart when we have to pick up a few things.
- You are pulling up on everything and walking around while holding on. You use your walker like a pro, but you can't use it to turn around yet. You can stand for about 2 seconds on your own, but then you sit down. Just like everything else, you will figure out one of these days that you can do it, and then there will be no holding you back.
- You got to experience your first snow a few weeks ago. It was only an inch or so (this has been a very mild winter), but we bundled you up and let you feel it. You liked it, and probably would have stayed outside for awhile if we'd let you.
- Your new favorite videos to watch are "The Best of Elmo" and the video that I made for your birthday party (who wouldn't want to watch a slideshow of themselves over and over?).
- I think you are going to be so much like your daddy. You hardly care one bit about your baby dolls or stuffed animals. You want to always play with the toys that make noise and light up. You love music, especially when it has a good beat. But you also love to read, and that makes me happy.
- We are trying to get you to eat more table food, but you're not really a big fan.
You had a great birthday party. We had so much fun bringing all of the family together to celebrate you!
You didn't really like your cake, but you licked your hands that had the icing. You loved opening presents and getting so much attention.
I wish I could put into words what this first year of your life has been like for your Daddy and I. You are an amazing creation of God. You make us smile 1000 times a day, even when you are fussy. We can already tell that you have such a big personality. You are going to do great things, baby girl. I am so proud to be your Mommy.
Happy birthday, baby! We love you.
