Unbelievable...Bris is 1 !!

My tiny cranky, fussy, screaming, yelling, adorable, lovable, cute, and tiny baby is officially a toddler.  She turned one on December 21st and has done a complete 180 since being born.  Obviously she has grown and changed in her looks but she has become a happy, laid-back, fun-loving, busy toddler.  She smiles constantly and is always up for giggles.  Although right now she is cutting all 4 molars and is pretty miserable...but other than that she is great!  We just had her check up with Dr. Terwilliger and she is right on track.  She is meeting and exceeding all of her milestones.  She weighs 25 pounds 10 ounces and is 30 inches tall.  She is in the 97 %tile for height and weight. So this means she will be a big girl just like her sister.  She is all over the place too. She never sits or stays in one spot for more than 5 minutes.  We just had her one year photos taken and they could not believe how well she was walking!  They said they have never had a 1 year old that was able to get around that well before :) Yay Brissy!  I hope she continues on this track and exceeds all milestones and expectations.  I have a feeling this little girl is going big places in her life!

So at 1 year old Bristol:
* is a walking...I mean running machine!
* has 8 teeth fully in and has 4 molars that have already cut through the gums
* talks a little
* says mama, dada, dog, thank you, no, and one, two, three :)
* screams sooo loud it hurts my ears
* does NOT sleep well at all...ever!
* loves to eat
* has figured out the goodness of real food and loves to feed herself
* still loves her green pureed veggies but isn't interested in much else
* loves bananas
* loves loves loves to dance
* will dance to any music
* tries to climb everything
* copies everything her sister does
* is a big time momma's girl
* is starting to fight back with Brooklyn
* wears 24 month clothes or some 2T
* wears a size 5 shoe
* size 5 diapers...only because that is what Brooklyn wears and its easier to buy only 1 size
* is starting to hold her own bottles...although would much rather have me hold it for her
* is beginning to like her sippy cup
And the biggest news of all!
* has officially outgrown her MSPI!!!! WAAHOOOO!!!
 - she eats soy products with NO problems
 - she eats and drinks small amounts of dairy as we are easing into it but so far no problems!  Dr. Terwilliger says that she would have reacted by now if she was going to! YAY!!!

So happy my baby can eat what she wants without the worry of a upset belly!  And no more crazzzyyy expensive formula! :)
