Baby Girl: 12 Months

One year! It goes by so fast! Brynn still continues to be so happy but has decided that she has opinions and lets us know when she's not happy. She also is starting to give a "but Moooooom!"type pouty face. It's equal parts adorable and a glimpse into my not so distant future. She is a screamer but at least it's a happy scream. She is very talkative but doesn't have any real words yet. She loves her brother and likes to comfort him by patting his back when he's upset. She refuses to sleep anywhere that is not her crib. She also started to not nap as well/as often. She eats anything and everything and often out eats Tate...and sometimes me.

Brynn loves watermelon and can't get it into her mouth fast enough when I give it to her.

This is the day Brynn refused to nap. Luckily it was only one day but it was still a rough one.

Brynn stands really well but she refuses to walk on her own. She loves walking while holding someone's hands or following along a wall but unassisted steps are something she doesn't do...yet.

While at Leatherby's, Brynn was so grumpy but once I gave her a cup with some water in it she was all smiles...and super wet.

Brynn was very grumpy on the way home from the grocery store but then she found the bag of grapes and helped herself. She was a happy camper after that.

Weight:

Height:

Clothing Size: Mostly 12 months but still in some 9 months

Diaper Size: Still in cloth diapers but would be a size 3

Milestones: Taken a few unassisted (but very coaxed) steps, able to balance for a long time

Eating:Eats anything and everything. Really loves bagels with cream cheese, always eats broccoli well and takes more from my plate.

Sleeping: Sleeps a pretty constant 12 hours, usually about 7:30-7:30. She is a wonderful sleeper and I hope all future kids are just like her! Naps are hit and miss. I think she needs to transition to one nape but she doesn't sleep long enough for that to work. Hopefully she will get the hang of it soon.

Communication: Da-da, ma-ma (though it doesn't happen nearly as often as da-da), na-na, ba-ba, always jabbering, screams

Nicknames: Baby girl, Brynnie, Brynners
