You feel things so strongly. When you are happy it is impossible to be sad around you. When you are sad we are all sad with you. You experience life to the fullest! Your laughter is contagious.
Although you are mama's girl there is nothing sweeter than the way you squeal when your daddy comes home. You run right to him and cling to his legs until he picks you up and when he does you lay your head so sweetly on his chest. I love the way you love your daddy and the way he loves you!
Your very favorite person in the whole world though is your big sister. You run and hug her so tight. She loves you too. Whichever one of you wakes first you run to find and wake the other. Then she lets you climb all over her, often pulling her hair and she never complains. If I try to move you she says no she wants you there. Mornings with the two of you are my favorite time of day. You sweet baby truly made us a family. Our dynamics are perfect and we couldn't be happier with you in our lives.
At 1....
-You have an amazing musical ability... You tap out the beat to songs you hear on the radio, you dance to the rhythm perfectly... you hum your favorite songs to request them... Music plays at our house almost constantly and we have wonderful dance parties in the kitchen... even Grandma can't resist them and they can last hours!
-You love animals... especially dogs, cats, ducks, and your gerbils. We can't go into the basement without you requesting to visit Chewy and Ugloo at least a few times.
-You love to eat... meat, bread, cheese, pasta... you don't care you'll eat it. You REALLY love yogurt, graham crackers, and lunch meat.
- You are right on target with your clothing size (12 months) and weight (20 lbs), yet you look like a little doll and nobody can believe you should be walking. They are shocked when I tell them you've been doing it for several months!
-Your favorite song is "The Good Morning Song" You request it first thing when you wake up in the morning... You even request it at 2 am if you want it to be morning. You also love "If You're Happy and You Know it"
-You love Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Bubble Guppies, and Little Einsteins
-You aren't afraid of anything, including stairs, climbing off mommy and daddy's bed, climbing up onto the window ledge etc...
-You are absolutely beautiful!
