Here we are!!!! We made it!!!! I can stop taking these stinkin pictures, lol. I might do it again at 18 mo and 2, we'll see how I feel. It sure was fun to get these shots to see how she grew. My next post will be the progression throughout the year. So here's my limber baby who doesn't like to cooperate. This was a hard session (as you will see throughout this post).
They only way we kept her happy was by having her hold something, and that something for the day was this little penguin pool toy. She's turning into a little McKenzie where she has to hold onto something. She loves stuffed animals are anything soft.
This was literally the only shot I got without her holding onto something, and she's getting ready to cry. You might think that's a smile, but look again. . .
See!!!
I decided to get a little festive and give her a flag, but there was no prying that penguin from her.
Only for a second.
Then I decided to change the blocks half way through to say 1 Year, cuz it is the same thing.
Happy birthday sweet girl!
*Weight-16 lbs. 8 oz. 1% (she actually dropped below the growth chart line and we have a goal to get her to gain 1 1/2 lbs before her 15 month check. She's just really picky)
*Height-28 3/4 inches long 37%
*Head-45.1 cm-54% so her head is at least normal
*Standing on her own, even getting up to a stand without holding onto something. Crawling is still the transportation of choice. She is really fast. She is walking (like a drunk baby) between Randy and I now.
*Refuses baby food. She is strictly table food and it changes daily what she will eat. I need to get new ideas. She is starting to drink whole milk and likes it, but will only drink about 3-5 gulps and then starts drooling it out. . . .because it's fun duh.
*Still not sleeping great. However having her fall asleep on her own is heaven sent. I would really like to start getting more than 4 hours of sleep at a time though. On the bright side, her naps are amazing.
*Blabs all of the time still. She mimics really good certain words but I doubt she actually knows what she is saying. She also squeaks and squeals a lot. Sometimes she sounds like a guinea pigs. It's pretty hilarious. The not hilarious part is the screaming she still enjoys. I'm going to go deaf I tell ya.
*Learned how to get down the last 2 stairs and was doing good till she got to confident and fell. Now she just sits there and cries till you "save" her.
*Went to her 1st movie with Gma and Gpa last week. We saw Epic in the dollar theater. She slept for about half of it and drove us crazy the rest. That's not happening again.
*Loves swimming, actually it's more like crawling and walking around the pool. We got passes to the Rec Center and go at least once a week, sometimes more. She lasts for about an hour or so before she is done.
*With all of the hard times we have with her, we sure love having her around. She is a lot of fun.
