Our not-so-little girl turned one on September 8 and had a little birthday party at Gigi and Grandaddy's pool cabana. She had tons of little friends and some family that were able to make it. It was a Thursday night, which made it hard for Mimi and Poppy to come in from Iowa, but she was able to play with them and celebrate after her birthday.
As for Caroline these days, she is still (surprise, surprise) our great eater and eats anything from sushi (no raw yet) to greek gyros. She is doing tons of signs (please, more, eat are most consistent) and will say Dada and doggie regularly. She will say mama occasionally, but doesn't really say it on command (I'm dada too most of the time.) She also loves barking when she sees a dog or we ask her what the dog says (usually it sounds more like an "oof" than "woof.) She's only taken a few independent steps when we're right in front of her, but no real walking yet. However, she climbs EVERYWHERE lately: on tables, up/down stairs, can slide down the bed pretty safely, and can climb on just about and playground equipment. Lately, she has discovered slides and never wants to leave the park once she gets there.
As far as her 1 year stats she has definitely grown a ton!!
Height 31" (96 %ile)
Weight 23lbs 6 ounces (85%ile)
Being that she was less than the 3rd percentile in weight/height when we took her home, she's come a long way!
