this adorable little girl is now 12 months old. she is very active, loves to follow her big brother around, and her favorite thing to play with is the remote. she will sneak over to the couch, look to see if someone is looking at her, grab the remote, and then let out a huge squeal while holding the remote high in the air. she has quite the little personality. she knows what she wants and will most certainly pitch a fit if she doesn't get it. it's amazing how two children can be complete opposites!
allie had her 12 month check up a week late due to her running a high fever for 4 days. she weighs 24 pounds (95 percentile). she is 31 1/2 inches long (99th percentile) and her head measures 18.5 (85th percentile). needless to say, she's uh, healthy. very healthy. she skipped over 12-18 month clothes and went straight to 18-24 month and even some 2T clothes. she wears size 4 diapers. this child loves LOVES to eat. we have been working on sign language with her and she signs "eat more" all day long. some of her favorites are yogurt, spaghetti, fish, green beans, ice cream (yes i let my child have a little ice cream….it's called child #2), mixed fruit and oranges. she really will eat anything you put in front of her! she's a great eater!
speaking of talking, she can say "ma ma" "da da" "bye bye" "uh-oh" "ta-you" (thank you) and "ba ba" (barbara). she can sign: eat, more, please, thank you, light, drink, yes, and no. she loves to try to sing and certainly loves to dance. she really likes when thomas the train comes on tv and when doc mcstuffins comes on too. she just bounces away. she's not walking yet. i'm not rushing that one.
she's our little bundle of joy that's growing up way too quickly. we are so very thankful for her.
