Yesterday you turned ONE and today we took your last monthly picture! I miss my Baby Nora already, but I'm also thankful for what we've accomplished this past year and excited about all we have to look forward to. :)
At 12 months,
you weigh 18 pounds 9 ounces.
you want Mommy most of the time. You call me "Nah Nah." When we are downstairs, you usually meander (crawl) your way into the kitchen, thinking you might find me there. And you are usually right!
you have started to enjoy the splash pad! You decided you'd be ok with sitting in the water on our 4th visit. You sit and kick your feet, grab at the little fountains and splash your hands in the water.
you just started cruising and when you pull up on my legs to stand, you are barely putting weight on me. You've attempted standing for short moments and I think you must be contemplating walking.
you have 3 little teeth on the bottom and still just 2 on top.
you don't seem very phased when I swat your hand. I have tried time outs and repeated, hard, swats to your arm when you touch the carbon monoxide detector, but you just don't seem to care all that much. A mystery!
you love to "talk" to your brother. My favorite is when we are in the car and you two can interact all you want without touching each other, because that's when it goes too far and you end up crying as Luke tackles you. Yesterday you were crying in your carseat and Luke started singing "Jesus Loves Me," then told me he was singing to help you.
you have tried more foods and have enjoyed my cherry almond steel cut oats, pork carnitas, sweet corn mac & cheese, and cottage cheese pancakes (for your birthday breakfast!) You know how to get my attention when you are hungry and want more food!
you aren't drinking from sippy cups yet. I've started giving you water out of a regular cup and you seem to like that. I'm not sure how the transition to whole milk is going to go!
you are such a doll and we love you so much!
Love,
Mommy
