The stats:
Weight - 18 lbs 1oz (25-50th percentile)
Height - 28 3/16 in (50-75 percentile) - your doctor likes to be exact in his measurements
Head - 18 in (90th percentile)
New skills: Lots of movement! Oh my gosh, when you made up your mind to move, you went for it and never looked back! You were always a wiggly worm, so we knew you wanted to move. Within a week and half's time, you started crawling, pulling up and cruising. You can't stay still and we can't keep up now. You see something you want, especially the open pantry, you go for it!
You also learned to roll a ball. Jackson thinks this is so great. He said "I am happy of her" the first time you rolled the ball together. So cute! I'm loving that you two play so well together, for now.
Teeth: No teeth...all that teething and nothing to show for it yet.
Eyes: We think you eyes have landed on hazel. Sometimes they look blue, sometimes gray, sometimes greenish brown. I suppose they could still change, but right now, the changing colors are so beautiful!
Words: Now that I can say for sure that you have said "Mama", your first word was indeed Dada. You said Dada a little over a month ago. But you have also said Mama on purpose a time or two recently.
You are getting so big! As much as I want you to stay tiny, I do love this age. There is so much to discover and learn. You are so sweet. You love giving hugs and leaning your head on my shoulder. I just wish it could last forever. You sometimes give big slobbery kisses. I love every one of them, so does Jackson. You are so happy and friendly. I can't believe we are in the final quarter of your first year! Now it's time to start planning that joint b'day party!
