aMeLia: 12 moNtHs oLd

my tiny baby is one.
i can barely believe it,
but here's a little bit of what's going on with amelia ann.

sTatS
weight...19 pounds 1 ounce...25th percentile
length...28 3/4 inches...40th percentile
head circumference...18 1/8 inches...77th percentile

*walking...she started walking more than crawling right around her birthday. i love the new little baby walk. it's so darn adorable.
*sign language...we are working on this. she can say please, but she only uses it when prompted.
*climbing...is this a skill? i guess so. every day i feel like she surprises me with something else she can climb on top of.
*loves...people, food, her sister, getting into everything, her paci, whatever leighton has

*sleep...naps have not been so good lately. she sleeps around an hour in the morning and an hour to an hour and a half in the afternoon. she still frequently wakes up in the middle of the night and screams for a couple of seconds until she finds her paci.
*the fussies...she has been a little fussier lately. i keep thinking maybe she's getting a tooth, but nope...no teeth, just fussing.
*i swear, she turned one and then all of a sudden wants nothing to do with baby stuff. she goes crazy for leighton's big girl sippy cups and leighton's toys. and if you take something away from her...watch out...she screams bloody murder.

miss amelia, you are a complete joy to be around. you love to entertain and you love interacting with others. you rarely cry when i hand you off to someone else and in fact you really don't like to be home without someone else to play with. i love to watch you discover the world as well as watch your adorable personality develop. you attempt to climb on anything and everything and if there are stairs in sight you will do anything you can to make your way to the top. now it would be nice if you would learn how to go down.
you have taught me so much about God's faithfulness and his provision. you are a true joy little lady.
we love you more than you will ever know.
