Heidi's birthday was yesterday....can it be? It has been a fun and wonderful year. Here are the little things about Heidi at a year that I want to remember:
- She has six teeth, two on the bottom and four up top.
- Her favorite foods are blueberries, broccoli, and crackers. She'll tolerate most other things but her appetite definitely depends on her mood. Some days she'll like a certain food, but will throw it on the floor the next day.
- No signs of walking just yet. She can cruise along the furniture and pull up on your legs, but will not let you hold her hands to help her walk. She'll just buckle her legs and melt to the floor.
- She's still taking two naps and sleeps almost 12 hours at night.
- She loves to play peek-a-boo with you. She'll hide behind something then pop up with a big smile on her face. Then she'll do that over and over again.
- She is a little dancer. She grooves to any music she hears, shaking her head and moving her body.
- She loves to be outdoors. We take a lot of walks and play on the playground often. This is where she learned how to climb steps.
- Her words consist of buh-bye, da da, dee (her word for the dogs), uh-oh, buh-duh (brother). Nope, no ma-ma yet. I'm not upset by this or anything. Nope, not at all upset.
- She is really starting to try and imitate words. She laughs and thinks it's a fun game to copy you.
- She's learned to wave, give high five, and clap.
This morning we went to the doctor for her one year check up. She's still a petite little thing: 18lbs (7th percentile) and 27.5 inches (8th percentile). Everything was fine and dandy according to her check-up. That's not hard to diagnose...this little girl is happy, giggly, and a joy to be around! We are blessed!! Here's some pictures of her big day celebrations from playgroup on Tuesday, and yesterday's fun...
Going for a ride in her new car seat:
The cake pops we had at her playgroup party Tuesday. I wish I had taken more pictures of the kids but us mommies couldn't stop gabbing:
Birthday donuts yesterday morning. She took her time with the first donut hole, then realized she liked them a lot and decided to stuff the entire next one in her mouth:
Going for a ride in her new car. She had perfect birthday weather yesterday and we were able to stay out most of the day:
Happy, happy, happy birthday, Miss Heidi!!

Oh Emily, your words and pictures just make me smile deep within! I so love the sweet fragile age of ONE! She just seems the most precious little girl... Aren't they FUN?!?!
And just for the record, Maria didn't say Ma-Ma until around 13 or 14 months. And also just for the record, she had quite a handful of other words by then too!! So funny, they are! :-) Little stinkers sometimes!
Happy (late) birthday, Heidi!!!!
