How BIG is Ava?

Today was Ava's one year check up.

Ht - 28 1/4 in
Wt - 19 lbs 7 oz
No turning that carseat around just yet! Tiny little girl is only in the 25th percentile.

Everything is great and Ava is doing wonderfully (although she wanted nothing to do with the doctor or those nurses with the shots!)

These days Ava is walking (well really running, most of the time). She is also going up the stairs. For the longest time she wasn't interested in the stair but then all of a sudden she just went up.
She is getting a little pickier with her eating (NO green beans please or anything green for that matter). But she can usually be bribe with things she likes - cheese, yogurt, and any kind of fruit!

She is down to only one bottle a day and that will most likely be done in a week or two. Not a huge fan a milk but we're working on it.

The doc said it's time to get rid of the paci - I'm a little worried about this but we'll try. A pacifier is the only thing Ava has clung to - no blankie or stuff animal that she is particularly fond of. I think I may have to find one! Wish us luck!

Wow, one year and Ava has come so far! We're proud of you baby girl!

Happy Birthday a little late from Great Aunt Sandra and Great Uncle Larry in Alabama. Great job on learning to walk! That should keep Mom and Dad busy for a long time!! We love and miss you all and look forward to your next visit.
