In sitting down to write this I realized I never did a "baby book" post for one year. I'll just combine it all here since we just had the one year check up yesterday. Notice a running behind theme here? E spent the wait at the doctor's office running from one end of the table to the other. She apparently was very excited by the reptile border? I'm sorry baby girl that is never going in your room. She got to stand on the scale for the first time was so excited you'd think someone had given her a whole bowl of avocado. She weighed in at a whopping 20.5 lbs. She has apparently added 2 back teeth, making 8. I thought it was her ears that were bothering her. Some nurse I am :) Her favorite books are Hop on Pop and Goodnight Moon. She loves to find the mouse. She is still a huge fan of anything animal related and has taken more of an interest in the stuffed ones. She will hug them and "rock" them. She is a pro at giving high fives. Although she always has to give Pop one first. He's the one who taught her. So be careful what you teach my child. She will tell on you :) She is a talker. She's got mama, dadda, ball, ba for bath, pop, and up (which she says with each stair she climbs) My mom taught her little bunny fufu and she will make her hand "hop" whenever she sees a bunny. Riggs also qualifies. She can tell you she is one and that she wants more. Which is often. She still has a healthy appetite. She had her first fish and peanut butter this week. Both of which she devoured. Her newest trick is asking where something or someone is. She will raise both hands and mumble something in a high pitched tone. Hilarious. But my favorite milestone is the unsolicited hugs. She will randomly come up and lay her head on your shoulder or up against your leg. Baby girl we love you more than you will ever know. You light up our days. We are so so thankful for your sweet life!
