Stats:
17 lbs 1 oz
28 1/4 inches
two top teeth, two bottom
For weight she has fallen below the chart :( The doctor thinks it might just be where her weight might always be considering her built and our family built, but we are going back to do a weight check in two weeks to see if she has gained. She is a terrible eater so I am a bit concerned and want her to plump up a bit! We got some ideas and trying our best to fill her up on calories right now.
She is very healthy otherwise!
She has been a terrible sleeper her whole first year of life, but somehow has made a great turn and for the last month has been sleeping really well.
Bedtime: 7:30pm-7:15am
Naps: usually from 9:30-11:00
and 2:00-3:30
She sleeps with her paci, bunny blankie, and a stuffed baby. A lot of times we find her going to her room to pull one of these from her crib and ask if she wants to go night night and she nods yes. She usually likes going to sleep and hardly ever fusses.
She has been sleeping through the night, but still will once in awhile wake up once to feed.

She is at the age where they learn so much everyday. It's fun to see her starting to follow directions we give her. Like tonight I asked her to go get her lotion after bath since I forgot it, and sure enough she goes to her room, gets it and brings it to me. But I do have to watch it because tonight she had Kelsey's flip flops and I said, "icky! go put them back by the door" and she only in took the "icky" part because I found them later in the garbage can.
She will be attending preschool twice a week this fall at mine and Elizabeth's house with about 6 other children. I think she will love it! :)

Sounds like she is off to a great start for her first year, bright and darling just like her sisters
She's a beautiful, wonderful little girl; I love your updates Jen, and to hear the specifics of what she's doing/learning, her likes and dislikes -it's all so entertaining to hear about (also love the new pics of all the girls on the right side of your blog)..
