Gracie at 12 Months

I realized the other day that I haven't posted Gracie's stats from her 12 month appointment. I want that info on here for future reference! And I think it's about time for an up-date, so this is a good place to start.


Weight: 19 lbs 2 oz = 30%
Height: 30 in = 75%
Head Measurement: 18 1/4 in = 85%

Our little munchkin is growing up. She started walking at around 12 months and is now walking or running everywhere. She is the cutest little bug and is already 19 months old :( I was looking back at our pictures and videos from when she was 1 year and I can't believe how fast kids grow! She's already changed so much in just 6 short months.

Here's a fun video of Brent feeding Gracie some frosty...



Some things I want to remember about Gracie at this age:

- she wants to be just like her big brother and do everything he does.
- has become so independent and wants to do things by herself and her way (climbing up in the highchair, getting into her car seat, getting dressed/undressed, feeding herself, etc.)
- she is a big helper and loves to help with chores around the house. She likes to help load the clothes into the washer and "help" with the dishwasher. After she's done eating she wants me to hand her a wash rag and she wipes and wipes and wipes the counter clean :)
- some days I go volunteer at Gavin's school and if I don't have a sitter for her I'll take her with me. She loves it and thinks she's one of the big kids. She was pretty shy the first couple of times but now she makes herself at home and goes around playing with all of the toys & interacting with the other kids.
- is a great eater and sometimes eats more than Gavin. I have to say it's a nice switch to not worry about her getting enough to eat! :)
- loves to dance and sing

She wants to be big and is growing up way too fast. We love you Gracie!
