Weight: 23lbs 8oz (81st %)
Length: 31.25in (93rd %)
Head: 18.5in (75th %)
Clothes: 12-18 months, some 18 month
Shoes: 4.5W
Diaper: Size 4
Words: Dadada (for both of us); Uh-oh (the cutest! And just like Grayson, you say it when you purposely throw things on the floor.); Gagaga (no idea what this is for) :)
Sleep: You sleep a solid 11-12 hour night and maybe wake up once looking for your pacifier. I need to put a night light in your room so that maybe you can locate it and save me a trip up the stairs in the wee hours of the morning.
Eat: Working on getting you off the formula and so far, so good. You have been down to just about 15-20oz. a day and eating everything else as solids. You hate meat right now unless it's mixed with something (like cream cheese, but duh, doesn't everyone?!) Loving lots of fruit just like your brother did at this age. And all kinds of beans. Yuck! ;) You are not taking to milk at all but we'll keep trying. Liking sippy cups more and more every day.
Overall health: Everything looked great at your annual appt! But you have eczema now and we are scheduled to see an allergist. You had a pretty bad flare up the other night that led me to believe that you were allergic to cantaloupe (the only new thing we tried that day.) The doctor said it was unlikely and was concerned enough to refer us to an allergist. More to come on that, I guess.
Earlier this week, we headed to your annual appointment at Scottish Rite Hospital. You still have healthy hips and continue to be enrolled in their study so that they can compare the not so good baby hips to the healthier ones. You will visit them about 4 more times until you turn 16 years old so that they can track your growth. We are happy to contribute!
Your birthday party was something else! We had close to 80 people in our house - what a time! We really thought that with it being sick season, many families probably wouldn't be able to make it. Oh, but they did! We loved seeing everyone and were so touched that they wanted to be with you as you turn 1! You gave them quite a show with an epic smash cake performance!
 |
| Football-themed invite! Figured it was appropriate since it was the day before the Super Bowl. |
 |
| Back of invite. Beau is such a sweet photographer. |
 |
| You really did have all of your clothes on up until cake time. |
 |
| Penalty flag and ref banner didn't really go with the otherwise brown/green theme - oh well! |
 |
| We loved the cake! We heard about Rosie from my friend Annie and she makes great cakes! Even delivers, which is heavenly on birthday party day! This size feeds 85 people and then some! |
 |
| Munchies. We had pizzas, wings and dip too. Although I didn't order enough and we ran out :( |
 |
| Mimi made W and football cookies! |
 |
| Grays wearing his favorite jersey! |
 |
| I giggle when I see this b/c it looks like Grayson is wearing a smash cake hat. ;) |
 |
| Praise the Lord for cake! ;) |
 |
| Couldn't make it to the bathroom so a kitchen sink bath became a party event! It was in your underarms! |
 |
| Mimi and Daddy washed you. This is a face of regret, my friend. |
We love you, Baby Walker! I mean, Toddler Walker! xoxo
