Dr. Loeb told us that even though you are small, developmentally you are very advanced. You have already reached the physical and mental benchmarks of a 15-18 month old. Being 6 months ahead when you are only 12 months old is very impressive!
What you've been up to this month:
* You started gymnastics. You are a pro at crawling through the tunnels, but you're still unsure about jumping on the trampoline and into the foam pit.
* You love to say hi to everyone... one, two, even three times until you get their attention.
* You love climbing the stairs, even when mom and dad tell you no. When we say no, it always sounds like you are saying yes back.
* You love to play with mommy's makeup.
* You're attention span seems to be getting better. You can sit down to read a few pages from a book (before you start trying to eat the book).
* You know what sounds a doggy makes. If you hear a dog barking, you will start barking along with it.
* You still get confused for a boy (but probably only because daddy dresses you).
* You prefer your bottle over your sippie cup.
* There was a recall on your formula so we transitioned you over to whole milk a few weeks early.
* You love to try and climb up the slides at the park.
* You named your doll 'baby' and will go find her when we ask "where is baby?"
* You love to play your piano; with one hand, two hands, two hands and a foot, or even your butt!
* You can walk all the way to the park without having to be carried at all!
I can't believe you are already a year old. You are such a big girl now. Your father and I have been blessed beyond words these last 12 months. Thank you for being a wonderful daughter. We can't wait to see what God has in store for us in the years to come.
