I am on a much needed Spring Break this week from school, Simon's break was last week, so it is just Ava and I hanging out together this week. Today we went for her 1 year check up (04/05/2011) although she turned a year on (3/16/2011) I scheduled her appointment so I did not have to take another day off from work. She is still measuring off the charts, yet leveling off in the area of weight. I know this is due to the amount of movement she gets during a day. It is getting very hard to keep up with her, I will often turn my head for a minute and she is off. She is a crazy crawler and cruiser. She can stand alone and I am sure will be taking her first steps soon, yet hopefully not too soon:)
Stats:According to doctor
28.5 lbs: slightly above 95%
31.5 inches above 95%
46.7 cm (head) above 95%
Language/social: above average ( says "mama, dada, cat, duck,goat, up, hi) Waves, hi-fives, blows kisses, gives real open mouth kisses:) and plays many hiding games, understands most of what is said by her reaction and response)
Fine Motor: above average ( has been picking things up with finger and thumb since six months, she can now open and close containers and doors: yes, we are in trouble:)
Gross Motor: average (crawls and cruises, can also stand alone for a few seconds, we are cherishing it, knowing when she begins to walk we will really have to chase her:)
Recently she has been into:
Putting things in containers, closing the containers and taking them out again
Cookie Monster
Pretend cell phone
Eating whatever mama and daddy are eating, I mean whatever ( garlic, tomatoes, you name it she will try it:) Yet her favorite foods are the fruit and she will always go for that first if left in front of her.
Singing and talking in the car with mom and dad.
When I tell her "no" doing it again with a slight smile.
Playing with our shepard Pan
Climbing on her chair and standing on it
Anything daddy is doing
books any kind, yet she seems to be into ones with animals or the hiding picture books more.
Being read to and sung to
Playing with other children and watching older children play
Anything with a loud noise or that she can make loud ( when we go out to eat, she will bang her sippy cup on the table just to listen and get a reaction, too much:)
Sippy cup and toddler snack cup that she can do herself, little miss independent these days.
I can't believe our baby is a toddler already, the first year has flown by for us and we enjoy watching her grow and her fun little personality take shape every day
