On Sunday, Kiddo turned 1. For her birthday, we went to church, then took a nap. After her nap, we made cake, and while it was cooking, we opened presents. She got a lot of them (especially a lot of books, which is just the way we like it), and enjoys all of them.
Her favorites, by far, are a doll from her Aunt, and a walker/lion from her grammy (no pictures of that). She has learned to pat the doll, and we encourage the love she is showing, but we think, given the enthusiasm of her patting, we won't let her pat her new cousin just yet.
We had cupcakes with whipped cream, which she enjoyed, but she really loved dinner: spaghetti and asparagus. It's nice that her sweet tooth is not fully developed.The next day we visited the doctor, and she received a clean bill of health. She is 31 inches long, and 19 lbs 12 oz. In other words, she's still tall and skinny. But because she follows her growth curves so exactly, the doctor is not worried, and neither am I.
She is a blessing in our lives in every way, I'm so very grateful to have her.
