1 year update & Texas Trip!

 

 

Age: 1 year old

Stats: 18lbs 5 oz (11th percentile) 29 1/2 inches (65th percentile)

 

 

Clothes: I have her in a lot of 12-18 month clothing especially since she got so many adorable new outfits from her birthday! She can still fit into 6-12 month clothing especially with shorts, she has a tiny waist :)

 

 

Favorite Activity: Sitting poolside! Take the girl out of her pool and she cries! Which is fine by me. Finally its nice outside and Collins wants nothing more than to be outside, in her pool, on walks, or taking wagon rides! She also loves brushing her little teefers!

 

 

Favorite Words: Momma still :) however she did say apple a good dozen times. Nonna taught her that one!

 

 

Least Favorite Activities: Walking! Collins hates when we try to make her walk or even stand up for that matter. She's a lazy ass. I cant put it any other way. But that's ok she will walk when she wants and we are ok with her independent attitude!

 

 

Mom's Favorite Moment: When I was taking a shower one morning she came over to our glass shower door and wouldn't leave until I came out all the while pressing her little face against the glass making faces at me :)

 

 

Dad's Favorite Moment: Graduating swim class! My little girl is going to be an Olympic swimmer if I have any say.

 

 

Other Milestones: Eating everything in sight! Whatever we eat now she eats and then some. I cannot keep enough food around for this little girl has appetite! Just like her father :)

 

 

 

Collins and I also had a girls trip this past month! We went to visit my good friend Becca and her family (she does all my birthday cards, holiday cards and designs this blog!) She has two of the most adorable kids, Jax & Jory who loved playing with Collins. It was like I had two little babysitters with me at all times :) We had a blast and seriously wish we were still there. Becca, Trav, and the kids were the best hosts too taking us all over Austin for Mexican food :) ha, picnics, the aquarium, shopping (our fav) and just spending some quality time all together! It was nice to just relax every day and enjoy the company. I know Collins was in heaven with the kids everyday. She usually gets cranky around 7pm for bedtime however in Texas she wasn't in bed sometimes until 10pm and was ok with it! Becca and I even got out one night to go see a late movie together! Collins was once again a pro on the plane there and back. Playing, eating, sleeping, eating, playing!

 

So, where to next!?
