Brighton at 1 year old!



I was waiting on Brighton's 1 year check up before I posted her update.  She is such a happy, healthy, thriving little lady.  Here are some things my girl is up to at 1 year old:
  • Teeth: 8
  • Weight: 19 lbs
  • Height: 29 1/4 inches
  • She's a full time walker now.  She decided to do it about a week before her birthday and by her party she was walking non-stop.
  • She has been totally off bottles since a week before her birthday and has done great.  She loves milk.
  • She survived her first (emergency) trip to the dentist. (More on that later)
  • She sleeps so well at night.  (Usually 7:30pm-7:15am)  She still takes a morning nap if we are home and about a 2 hour afternoon nap.
  • She says ma ma, da da, bu bu (brother), baby, bath, up, down, out and more.
  • She LOVES her baby doll and likes to carry it all over the house.
  • She adores her brothers and constantly follows them around, she's getting better at keeping up too.
  • She is constantly dancing.  She bobs her head back and forth and sways to the music.  Melts my heart every single time.
  • She still prefers me to anyone else and I love it.
  • She's a great eater if she's in the mood.  She loves bananas, baby food pouches, raspberries, apples, chicken, crackers and especially yogurt melts.
  • She still takes a pacifier during the day and at night.  She likes it a lot but is also okay without it during the day.
  • She's a climber!  I've found her on top of Hayes' slide, standing on a chair, on the mini trampoline in the playroom and on numerous stools.
  • She is happy 95% of the time.  She loves to giggle and play and be around people.
  • Words cannot express how much we all love this little girl.  We are so thankful she came to our family a year ago.  We cannot imagine our lives without her.  We look forward to so many more birthdays and what this next year will hold for our sweet girl.
