1 Year Old!

Our little girl is ONE! Where has the time gone? She has grown so fast! She turned 1 on Dec. 4. Emerson took some birthday cookies to daycare to share with her friends. That night, the 3 of us celebrated her birthday by going out to dinner together (she shared my burger at Red Robin). We decided not to have a big b-day party, since this time of the year is so busy for everyone and we knew we'd be seeing all of our family between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Instead, she's having lots of smaller celebrations! She is still only walking around the furniture, but she is getting braver and her first real steps could be any day! She has added "key" (kitty) and "yes" to her vocabulary and loves to make all kinds of noises. Emmie had some further testing today as a follow-up to her urinary tract infection. We were very thankful to hear that her bladder and kidneys look like they're functioning properly! Here are her stats from her 12 month appt:

Weight: 23 lbs. (80th%)

Height: 29.5 (70th%)

Head: still off the charts!
