We celebrated Claire's 1st birthday!
Here is a few things that she's doing now:
- 21 lbs (50%), 31 inches long (97%), wearing 18 months clothes and size 4 shoes!
- 12 teeth (6 on the top and 6 on the bottom)
- New words now include ice, hot, moo, quack, ruff, meow, doggie, hi, bye, go (actually go, go, go!), buzz as in what bees say and cracker. She tries to say balloon, ball, bird, boat, spoon and goat but these all sound the same right now. We are still waiting for mommy and daddy.
- Claire can point out her body parts. Belly button and toes are her favorites but she also knows ears, eyes, nose, fingers, knees, head and hair.
- We are still working on our sign language. If prompted she will do 'all done' and 'milk' but wont do it on her own; we are going to keep at it.
- Loves fruit! Especially blueberries (thank you grandma), strawberries and watermelon. It will be sad this winter when we can no longer find it.
- MUSIC, MUSIC, MUSIC! The best ones (in Claire's opinion) are Twinkle, Twinkle and Itsy Bitsy Spider.
- Two of her favorite games are 'I see you' (peak-a-boo) and 'I am going to get you' (chase) followed by a good tickle of the ribs. She has the best laugh!
I'll get a few more pics of her birthday party here soon!
