Eliza 12 month check up

Eliza had her 12 month check up this week. Here are her stats:

Height 30.5 inches.......................92%
Weight 23.5oz...............................88%
Head Circumference 46 cm........75%

Poor kid had to get her MMR, Variclla and HIb plus a TB test today. She took them all in stride.


Eliza is.....
1. a busy walker. She took her first steps on Easter Sunday and now she is really walking. She loves to show off her new moves.
2. become a very picky eater. When she is done with something she throws it off her high chair tray. She also had a good idea of what she wants to eat and if you don't provide it she just throws what you gave her off the high chair. She tends to prefer meat. Chicken, steak, and black beans. Weird I know. (Needles to say it is a good thing we have plastic mat under her high chair.)
3. using a sippy cup. She throws her head back to make it work.
4. still has 8 teeth,4 on top and 4 on the bottom, and is trying to get her one year molars.
5. really wants to talk, but can only say Mama, Dada, Uh-Oh and some words that sound like Gretta and Grandma. She sometimes can mimic really well, but doesn't have many new words. She also grunts, cries, laughs and makes other vocalizations to get her point across.
6. loves to laugh and thinks she is really funny.
7. loves to splash in the bath.
8. loves to steal her sisters blanket and then give it back to her.
9. her favorite toy these days is a toy hammer. She loves to carry it around.
10. is really showing off her fun personality lately!!! She has really come into her own lately. Now that she can walk nothing is slowing her down. She loves to explore.

We love you Eliza!!!
Love,

I agree... a year seems to pass very quickly! But look at this girlie now! No one would ever guess that the doctors once were a bit worried about her growing! :) She looks like a fun and happy baby.
