Savannah-girl, how on earth is it that you are 1 year old already? Just yesterday, your Daddy & I were in the hospital anxiously awaiting
your arrival. Seriously. It was just yesterday. You are such a big girl now. You weigh 22 lb, 4 oz & are 30 in long. You are in the 75% for height & weight which is good. You wear size 3 diapers & 12-18 month clothes.
You have got the most fun personality. You love to giggle & play & be silly. = )
You are also somewhat reserved. It takes you a little bit to sort of feel out a new situation, but once you get used to it, you jump right in. You're like Mommy that way.
You wave bye-bye or hi to people wherever we go & flash your beautiful smile. People tell me every time I take you out how cute you are. It's because you are. = ) You are so well-behaved when we go out. That makes Mommy & Daddy so proud of you.
You had the flu for the first time this month & were such a trooper. You only had it bad for 1 day, but weren't quite yourself for about 5 & you didn't get fussy at all. You obviously have Mommy's tolerance for being sick & not Daddy's. ; )
You do so well in the church nursery. You love to play with your friends. Daddy always looks up at the board to see if your number flashes & it never does. He gets you after the sermon & before the worship songs because you
love music. You bop up & down to fast songs & sway back & forth to slow ones. You're pretty right on with your moves. Daddy played a Beyonce song from his phone recently because it had a super good beat & you got on your hands & feet & started shaking your bootie in the air. Heaven help us!
You are pulling yourself up onto everything now & I know it won't be long until you take off walking. Walking! You are so curious that Daddy & I
know that we won't sit down again for a long time after you take off. = D
You are such a good eater. You're not super crazy about scrambled eggs, but I haven't given you anything else that you don't care for. But...if I give you something to eat & you see something else that you want more (most recently, it was Daddy's soup you wanted instead of sharing Mommy's sandwich), you won't touch what I give you until you get what you really want. Then you eat up what I've given you to begin with. You're too funny!
Savannah Grace, we are so, so, so blessed to be your Mommy & Daddy. God knew exactly what He was doing when He chose you for our family. We can't get enough of your sweet face & delightful giggles. My arms literally ache when I am away from you & when I am with you, I just want to gobble you right up. = ) I pray that you will always be a follower & worshiper of God. We love you more than you'll ever know. xoxo, Mommy
P.S. Some of these pictures we had taken at
Sears Portrait Studio. I bet you can't guess which ones. ; )
