All About Brynn!

April 22, 2010

Our little girl is officially a year old! We had her year check-up on Monday and she is healthy and growing. Brynn was a trooper and had shots and blood drawn for this check-up, so thank goodness for daddy--mommy can handle shots now, but holding her down to get blood drawn is not for me! Our Dr. recommends it to be done, so it is done and over with now and we can enjoy all the joy and fun she has brought to our lives!

Height=29 inches long, 50th percentile
Weight=20 lbs, 7 oz, 40th percentile

Teeth--she now has 6 teeth--4 on top and 2 on bottom

Brynn is eating all people food and has been for about 2 months now. She is just like her brother and loves anything with noodles, but also enjoys grilled cheese, pizza, pancakes, and green beans. Also like her brother, she is not too into fruit--Caden eats apples and applesauce and right now, Brynn will eat applesauce and some fruit yogurt--what weird kiddos! I keep trying different types of fruit with her and she spits it right back out, so we will see!

Just in the last week, Brynn has started letting go of items and taking steps by herself--I think we are up to about 6 steps, so getting closer, but still prefers crawling. Brynn goes to sleep around 8:00 and sleeps til about 6:30ish. We are still doing one night bottle, but the rest of the day she is using a sippy cup--she also transitioned to whole milk great!

Brynn's favorite words are still da-da and daddy--she will say ma-ma, but daddy is differently the pick of the day. She also says Kee--for kitty, and Ut-Ohh--is another favorite especially when it involves dropping her sippy cup or other toys on the floor. Brynn is also a pro at clapping and letting us know when she is done eating! She does her best to stay right up with her big brother and loves to do whatever he is doing--most the time he handles that ok. She loves swinging in her swing outside and we go for stroller rides almost every night--she pulls herself right to the front of the stroller and takes in all of the sights!

Most days she is a happy and loveable little girl and we are so blessed to have her in our lives!

A year ago she was born!

And now she is one...

We took brownies to daycare for her treats!

Her birthday breakfast--pancake or french toast stick--one or the other!

A stroller from Mommy and Daddy for her baby.
