Well I made it to my final monthly post of Addie's first year of life. I don't know how this last year has already come and gone. There really are no words that could ever adequately describe this past year and the love I have for this little girl! All I know is I can't imagine life without her. She has taught me a kind of love I didn't know existed and has taught me so much this past year. I somehow love every stage more than the last. I am loving the stage she is in right now. She is so full of personality it is slightly terrifying to think about her moving into toddler years. For example, we were shopping at Target the other day and I grabbed some celery and put it by her in the cart and she grabbed it and held it until we got to the register and I had to take it from her to pay for it. She freaked out and started screaming...over celery seriously...and she had to hold it the whole way home in the car! I think I can still pull off calling her my baby since she still has the baby look (hardly any hair, still no teeth (should I be worried), and little baby feet). We have been having so much fun this month with playdates, cherry hill, and spending time with family.
Her 12 month stats:
Length 28.07 inches 27%
Height 19lbs 4.5oz 27%
Head 45.3cm 64%
She might be a little shrimp, but she's perfectly proportionate!
On Addie's actual birthday she had yummy pancakes for breakfast and we played with her new toys before church. After church we had dinner over at my parents and Addie got to have a cupcake (seriously after cake the day before and then a cupcake she is done with sugar for a while) and celebrate some more!
She seriously loves books
Playing in her new tent
Yummy cupcake
Pushing around her new baby and stroller

Since her birthday was on a Sunday we decided to celebrate some more at Cherry Hill with Crystal on Monday! We love going to Cherry.
Still loves watching signing time
First time trying spaghetti, if you can't tell she loved it!
