Nothing like a 12 month post when she's almost 13 months (forgive me, AC)...
Height and Weight:
28.2 in (10-25th %)
19lb 1 oz (10-25th %)
Diet:
The child is eating us out of house and home! The above weight has definitely changed since her appointment - she is getting CHUNKY! Thanks to her new class at school, she is strictly drinking from a sippy cup (and we even dropped the bottle before bed this week)!

Her favorites are - pizza, mac n cheese, green beans, oranges, strawberries, hotdogs, and she has my sweet tooth. She loves ice cream and icing - smart kid!!
Clothes: She is wearing some 9 month dresses and bubbles. She mostly wears 12 month clothes. She is getting longer, so we definitely need to get her some longer pj's!
Personality: She.is.a.mess! I absolutely adore this child. She is certainly coming into her own. She has a temper that makes Kate's look mild (reaping what I sowed). She will throw a fit at the drop of a hat if she doesn't get something she wants. BUT she is a little lover. She has a smile that lights up a room. And with the exception of being tired, hungry, or pitching a fit...she is always smiling. Since she has started packing on some weight, her dimples are shining through and I am obsessed!
Likes/Dislikes: As I've already said before, she LOVES Millie. And Millie is super sweet with her and will let her love on her and pat her and even crawl all over her. She will stand at the door and say "daw daw" over and over. She wants to be doing EVERYTHING Kate does. I can already sense the big sister annoyance (my apologies to my big sister!). She likes baby dolls and is so cute when she puts them in the little stroller and pushes them around. She likes being outside and pitches fits when we come in. She comes straight to the bathroom as soon as she hears the water running... LOVES bathtime. She doesn't like to be told no - especially in the bath when she is trying to stand up. She always wants to be on the move - she does not like to sit still. She doesn't like to have her diaper changed or get dressed/undressed.
Milestones: She started taking steps a couple of weeks ago, right after her birthday. She will walk a little bit, but then knows she can get places quicker by crawling. She is QUICK! She is a climber, too. I'm going to have to be on my toes constantly with this one.
She has 6 teeth - 2 bottom, 4 top.
We have had her sitting in a booster seat instead of a high chair because she likes to be included. She kept pitching fits at dinner, so we took her tray away and put her food on the table so she can eat like the rest of us. Dinner is SO MUCH nicer since we did that. She is a lot happier.
She isn't doing much more talking than she was last month. Still mama, dada, daw daw, da da (duck), bye bye, baby. She will wave and blow kisses. If you ask her where her head is she will pat her head. If you say, "Love ______", she will hug whoever or whatever you are telling her.
She looks so big in all of these pictures! Where did my baby go??
