ONE year old!

At one year old, Avery:

-wears size 6-12 & 12-18 month size clothing & size 3 shoes

-has taken about 6 steps on her own at once. She is fully capable of walking, but she's very cautious! A lot of the time she will be standing or taking steps on her own, and then notice what she is doing and sit down.

-is a picky eater! She doesn't care too much for her veggies & doesn't like textured food. I'm trying to switch her to all table food, but she gags anything up that is textured.

-still has her bottles of formula, but we're making the switch to whole milk now. I'm starting out with an ounce of whole milk mixed with her formula. I'll add another ounce of whole milk each day until the whole bottle is milk.

-has EIGHT teeth!

-is getting longer, wavy hair

-is understanding more of what we're saying. She knows what "no" means, but continues to do whatever she's doing that we don't want her to do (stinker!). She'll look at us and reach for a cord or something else we don't want her to have, and then smile at us knowing that she's not supposed to touch that.

-wants to climb everything

-loves to dance to music & clap

-can wave bye bye

-has full on separation anxiety. She's very shy around people she doesn't know.

-points at everything (so cute!)

-loves talking on the phone. Anytime she sees someone on the phone, she whines for it.


My BABY is ONE! Does that make her a toddler?! Insane.
