1 year update

Finley on her birthdayWeight: 22 lbs 11 oz (76%)
Height: 30.5" (90%)
Head: 46.5 cm (87%)
Development:
-Walking-it's such a precious waddle, and she can make it all the way across the room!
-talking- mama, dada, papa, night-night, uh-oh
-signing-all done, more, eat, book
-"tricks"-waving bye-bye, blowing kisses, giving kisses, so big, clapping, hand motions to wheels on the bus, praising Jesus (lifting hand up), identifying nose, eyes, and ears.
-does not have the faintest idea of sharing-she wants whatever toy her friend is playing with
-has 12 teeth, including 4 molars-doesn't that make her seem so old?!
-drinking cows milk and loving it
-facing forward in her car seat
-sleeping great at night and taking two naps
Finley loves:
-helping me unload the dishwasher
-horsing around on the couch (it was a sad day when she learned how to climb up on it)
-reading books, especially flip up books and touch and feel books
-taking baths
-cuddling with her blankie-the ladies in the nursery have reported that she is very territorial with it!
-eating string cheese
-feeding herself with the spoon (which is only an option when I have an extra 10 minutes to clean up the mess)
-playing with legos
-when papa comes in the door at night
-animals
-musical instruments
-unloading the diaper bag
At her well-baby check up (which i foolishly scheduled for 8 am)

so sweet! What a fun age. She always has the cutest little outfits on. Where'd you get that little sherpa hat? I want to get me one for Jane.
