Our stunning little girl turned 1 on December 6, 2013! We celebrated with some 1 yr old photos and after we met daddy and Liam at Denny's for a breakfast lunch (her favorite foods!). We had so much fun celebrating with our little lady. The following day, Lorelei was surrounded by friends for her party. We had a brunch complete with chocolate chip waffles, strawberries, fruit and cake! Mmmm! Lorelei was showered in love and gifts and was so grateful to everyone who helped make the day that much more special!
At her one year check up (which was actually at about 12.5 months) we were SHOCKED to NOT get griped at over her weight. LO is GROWING! She weighed 19.07lbs at her check up on Dec. 26! She was 15lbs about 2 months before that appointment. That puts her into the 14th percentile (gaining on the chart instead of being at the very bottom or OFF the chart completely). She is in the 36th percentile for height (28.94in) and her head measured 45.5cm (68th percentile).
For the first time in her life, she is wearing her true size in clothes (12 mo) and even some 18 mo. clothes. She wears size 3 diapers now. We quit cloth diapers (they were getting to be a little too much to handle now that she explores so many new foods!). Size 3 shoes, some size 4's. She talks A LOT (doggy, daddy, bubba, ball, eye, yay, papa, ma, milk, lady, baby-to her dolls, weeee!). She waves hi/bye and gives high fives! She is VERY strict about her bedtime, wants to be in bed at 8. She wakes between 7-9am. Super durable (with a big brother around). Happy, go lucky, SUGAR AND SPICE! Sweet, but plenty of attitude. CURIOUS little lady who always wants to be bigger than she is. Loves to sit in "big kid" chairs at the library and brothers school. I call her goldilocks because she'll try every chair. She's still a decent eater, but a bit more picky these days. Faves remain: yogurt, breakfast foods, cottage cheese, string cheese, graham crackers, beans, apples, MILK! Is getting picky about fruit and veggies. Lorelei WEANED and is on cows milk. She didn't have much of a choice, a friend of ours babysat her while we moved (Dec 17th) and mama wasn't available to feed her. My friend gave her cows milk (from a bottle... gasp!) and she took it. So we just kept giving it in a bottle and VOILA! it worked. We'll worry about weaning from the bottle later ;) Lo has 6 teeth, she added the two side teeth to her top two (& her bottom 2!). She tolerates brushing them "okay"... especially if her brother does it before her ;)
