Melanie - 1 year!

Height: 31 inches

  

Weight: 24.5 lbs

Hair: Blonde

 

Eyes: Blue

 

Food: We are officially weaned! The last month we have only been doing bedtime nursing (which was very short) so I could tell she was ready. Melanie went to bed last night with absolutely no problem and slept all night. Now I can actually leave in the evenings if I want to (or even go on a vacation *GASP*) without needing to be home to nurse that sweet baby before bed.

Mels is a pro at the sippy cup and still loves these foods:
-breakfast sausage
-Go Go Squeeze: She can now hold it herself and suck that puppy down in seconds!
-yogurt
-cottage cheese

 

 

Sleep: Still sleeping through the night (12-13 hours) and two naps a day.



Temperament: Melanie loves life. There's not much more to say!

 

 

 

 

 

Melanie loves:
-Eating
-Cruising
-Mommy!
-Bathtime



Mel dislikes:
-Being disciplined: mostly for throwing her food on the floor during meals
-Being tired



 

New adventures:

-1 Year old, which means SUGAR!

Mel definitely loved her cake. Much more than her big brother on his first birthday:

-Size 4 diapers and 18 Month clothes

-Melanie's first Halloween:

Trunk or treat

Flashback to Reed as a sweet little skeleton

Sweet little skeleton

 

Halloween was a very small affair. We did make it around to a few houses. Reed mostly just pushed Mel around in the stroller. She had a great time strolling!

 

-Current vocabulary:
