It Happened So Fast! 12 Months

We went from this:

To this:

In a blink of an eye! 

Paige came into this world three weeks earlier than expected at a robust 7 pounds 7 ounces and 21 inches long.  At her one year checkup she was just shy of 21 pounds and 31 inches long.  She is in the 75-80% range for height and weight and 90ish for her head.  She is brewing up some mad information in that brain!! :)

She is walking everywhere and loves exploring and experiencing everything. I try to be the kind of mom that isn't always saying NO and just lets her experience things even if I have a big mess to clean up! 

She eats everything I put in front of her and especially loves fruits and vegetables.  She is a little questionable of chicken but eats it.  Her favorite food is probably yogurt right now. Oh and we are up to three teeth now.

She is overflowing with personality, talks nonstop and is an avid dancer.  Literally when the music starts, so do her moves!  I LOVE it!  She says Mom, Dad, Bubba, No, Baby, Hi, Ugh! and MMMMMMM (for kiss) She claps and waves when appropriate and it is so cute to me! 

She is a scheduled young lady!  She likes consistency and is still doing her morning nap and afternoon nap.  She is a night owl like dad so she hangs with us until 9 pm then hits the hay until about 7:30 am. 

She is such a healthy, good baby girl!  She has had one minor cold and that's it!  The only time she has been to the doctor is for her well checks.  She LOVES all animals and bugs...she was terrorizing a rolly polly on the porch yesterday.  She also LOVES the water!  Last but not least, she just loves all of her friends!  Playing with kids has got to be her favorite past time! 

Before I send this post into picture overload, I guess I will wrap it up!  We are so blessed and honored to have spent the best year of our lives with her!  We look forward to everyday with her. She is turning into such a beautiful young lady and we could not imagine a more perfect special person to be our daughter!  We will continue to watch her grow and thrive and will be by her side no matter what being her biggest and loudest cheerleaders!  We love you so much Paige!!!
