1 Year Stats

Emmy had her one year check-up on Friday. She weighs 20 lbs 4.5 oz and is 29 3/8 inches long. She also got three shots in her arm. She remains in the 25-50% category. But her head is another story. Her head is in the 75-90% category. She must have a lot of brains in there.

Here are some updates...
  • Emmy loves to pick belly buttons...daddy hates this and it drives him crazy!
  • She's starting to dance to music. She just bounces up and down a bit.
  • She tries to do "Head, Shoulders, Knees and toes" with the other kids at daycare.
  • She is now saying "Mama." Yeah!!!!!
  • She loves to ride her horse and her red airplane. She gets on them and makes them rock back and forth.
  • She sticks her tongue in and out of her mouth and makes a noise while doing it.
  • She loves buttons and loves to push the garage door opener every day.
  • She gets very excited when she sees her daddy.
  • When we ask her what a lion says, she growls. When we say, "what's a puppy say?" she goes arf, arf, arf. We are working on other animal sounds too.
  • She loves to feed herself.
  • When she picks something up from the ground, we say bring it to mommy or bring it to daddy and she will hand it to us.
  • She is still putting a lot of things in her mouth, but understands the word "NO."
  • For the past few weeks she eats all table food now and is on whole milk. She didn't mind the change to whole milk at all. No fuss. She has not turned down anything that we have tried to feed her. Even cilantro. Yuk.
  • She takes a few steps in between her toys, but is not a full walker...yet. She'll probably go straight to running.
  • We are getting her a bigger "forward-facing" car seat today...such a big girl!!
  • When she gives me a hug, she pats my back...this is so precious!
  • She loves playing with the kitties.
  • She dials random numbers with my phone. Today she called the operator.
  • She doesn't like leaving daycare.
