Anna had her 1 year check up at the doctor this past week. She is a growing, healthy girl and we are SO thankful for that! The Lord has most certainly blessed us with this special young lady and each day is a joy to be around her. She weighs 23 pounds 6 ounces and is 30.9 inches tall. That puts her in 90th percentile for both height and weight, so she is larger than most children her age, but proportional.
She did receive three shots (tears...), but handled them well and was only fussy for one day. She is currently in the process of cutting all four molars which has interrupted her sleep a little and caused her some pain.
Each day, she says a new word (or two) it seems. This morning she said "melmo" for Elmo and pushed my hand away when I tried to give her more Cheerios, saying "nana" meaning she wanted more bananas, not Cheerios.
She adapts well in different situations. Anna loves to play with her sister, but also likes her alone time to play. Sometimes Leah can be a little rough without realizing and Anna likes to play alone at times without worrying about being knocked down or pushed over. She's pretty steady on her feet these days, and can just about run.
Her current facination is with dogs. She says "doggie" and sticks her tongue out and pants when she sees a dog or hears a dog, or sees something that looks like a dog (like a goat?). Pretty funny.
