12 months!!!

Wow! I can't believe it's already been a year! One year ago on Wednesday, September 24, 2008 at 4:46pm our precious baby girl was born. She was 7 lbs 14 oz and 20 inches long. Today she is 19 lbs 3.5 oz and 29 inches tall.

It's been such a wonderful year. We are so blessed to have a healthy baby girl. She has changed so much and it's so exciting to see her personality unfold as she learns about this new world around her.

Just in the last few weeks she seems to have grown up so much. She's figuring out how her toys work. Before she mostly picked them up, hit them, banged pieces together, etc but now she's beginning to know to put pieces together, push buttons, etc.

She seems to know what we're saying more than before. And I think she's saying things more intentionally. Her newest one is "ball." I'm not sure that's what she's saying. It's still just "ba" but she says it when she's holding a ball. Balls are her favorite toys at the moment.

She also loves chewing on socks! Her clean baby socks of coarse. At school they gave Katie a birthday hat with all her classmates names on it. They sang Happy Birthday to her and gave her a little birthday goody bag.After school we took her to Baskin Robbins for some birthday ice cream. She got cotton candy flavor and loved it!
This was the 1st time she's really noticed birds. Usually with just a few in the sky they're too small or too far away for her to really notice them. But at Baskin Robbins tonight there were TONS of birds. She was so fascinated by them. :)
