Catherine at 1 year old. |
-She has 8 teeth--4 on top and 4 on the bottom
-She is a very finicky eater these days. She LOVES sweet potato today and HATES them tomorrow. She's also really nice about dramatically spitting out things she doesn't like and/or picking them up and dropping them off the side of her chair.
-Just finished the medicine for her 3rd ear infection after having a hard time sleeping.
-Total Daddy's girl--the bond between those 2 is the best. They are ridiculously smitten with each other.
-Cruising all over and so fast now. She's starting to let go a bit to lean to the next piece of furniture, but not walking yet. It won't be too much longer, though.
-Removing socks as soon as she gets a chance.
-Saying the words--Mama, Dada, Yeah, Hi, Uh oh, Nigh Nigh.
-Raising her arms for SO BIG, blowing kisses, clapping, waving, shaking her head no and yes
-Figuring out how things work and imitating how we use them--trying to put lids on cups, use brushes on her hair, put socks on her feet, hats on her head, etc.
-Sharing things with us. She loves to hand us things and wants us to hand them back immediately.
-Happily plays on her own in the pack n play while I shower or make dinner.
-Likes to look at books, push trucks while making engine noises, destroy anything Andrew builds, shake rattles, kiss her baby doll
-Is so cute and smiley when we get her from her crib in the morning
-Loves bath time and could splash for hours
-She's transitioning down to 1 nap and seems to do fine with just 1 nap most days.
-She's really easy-going and seems to roll with whatever we decide we are doing that day, even when it means she misses out on sleep.
1 year doc appt stats:
Weight: 16lbs 6oz
Height: 26.8 in
This little lady is petite with a note of "familial short stature" in her chart. Awesome. We are looking forward to Catherine's 2nd year. She's definitely still the favorite daughter around here.
