One Year Old Stats!!

Lola,

I can't believe you are already one!  This year has flown by!  You are a blessing to our family, and the icing on the cake.  You are so fun these days, and there really is not a shy bone in your body!  You wave and smile at everyone you see.  You are constantly babbling and are pretty good at communicating what you want.  You can say "ma ma" and "da da" some what, and you love to shake your head YES!  You can also say "mine"!  (I bet I know where you learned that word!)  You are in to everything and pulling up.  You can stand alone and are beginning to take a few steps.  You can crawl really fast and love to go up the stairs!  If we put you in your walker, you are a nascar driver!  :)  You still love the water, and the pool is your new favorite thing!  YOU LOVE YOUR PACI!  You hide them at every turn!  You are wearing a size 4 diaper and 18 month clothing.  Your foot is still tiny - a size 2-3!  You still only have 4 teeth but that doesn't stop you.  You LOVE to eat!  REAL food is your favorite!  You will eat most anything we give you.  I haven't found anything you will turn away.  You are still drinking your bottle and refuse to give it up.  You throw the cup at me when we give it to you especially if it has milk inside!  You are beginning to drink some juice from a cup.  Your bottle must go soon, and in a few weeks we will be taking you off of your soy formula!  We will try regular milk first hoping we don't have to continue with soy!  You recently went for your one year old check-up.  Here are your stats:

Weight:  23 lbs.  (75th percentile -You are catching up with big sister Lily!)

Length:  29 1/2 (75th percentile)

Head Circumference:  18 1/4 (90th percentile - You get this from your daddy!)

We love you very much and can't wait to see what you do next!
