What a Difference a Year Makes!

What a difference a year makes!

A year ago, this baby was 6-months old.

She would sit in one place for a long period of time while I took hundreds of pictures of her (seriously!),

She still took a bath in the infant tub,

And she loved to play with toys that made sounds and lit up - while staying in one place. :)


A year ago, this baby girl was in the 9th percentile for weight and caused me a great deal of stress since she was so skinny.

Now, this little girl loves to run all around the house, "help" Mommy with laundry, and play with tons of toys!

She loves to drink from cups, feed herself with spoons and forks, and even eat milk and cereal in the morning,

She loves to discover new adventures

And take bubble baths in the big bathtub.

And now, this 18-month old little girl weighs 28.2 pounds (89th percentile) and is 33 1/4 inches tall (87th percentile).

What a difference a year makes!!

Amazing to see all of the changes and how quickly she has grown. And Kelsey is right, she is still the cutest little red head I've ever seen. Love, Grandma Jan
