Nichols Nonsense: June 2012

My little cupcake turned one the other day! How exciting is that?

We had a party for her at our house a few weeks ago and we'll have another party tomorrow on the other side of the state. You have to be really special to have two birthday parties.

We went to the doc to get a little check-up and to get a couple of shots. The check-up was cool...the shots were not so cool.

Stats:
Weight: 21 pounds (between 25th and 50th percentile)
Height: 31 inches (95th percentile)

So that means that she has gained almost 12 pounds and grown 10 inches since she was born 12 short months ago.

Look at my sweet girl, just a few hours old...she had my heart from the moment I laid eyes on her. I can't believe she's been alive for a year. It's crazy how quickly time flies.

At 12 months Claire:

Is the best baby ever.
Gets from point A to point B by crawling...only slightly interested in walking. She has been started to walk around with her walker toys though so she's making progress.
Started drinking a little bit of cow's milk. We still have about 120 ounces of breast milk in the freezer to go through.We have cut back to two nursing sessions per day...will phase that out at some point before her fifth birthday. :)
Is talking more and more every day.
"Talks" on the phone using any electronic device or anything resembling a telephone.
Plays peek-a-boo, claps when you say "yay!" and high-fives.
Can do a couple of baby signs
Is super, super sweet.
Loves her big sisters.

We have had a lot of fun over the past few weeks...take a look at a few pictures of our adventures:
