1 year
Age: 1 year
Height: 30 inches
Weight: 21 pounds 7 oz
Nicknames: Parker-Parks, Little Man, Fat Head
Likes: Watching videos in the car, playtime upstairs after school, swimming in Mema’s pool (as long as I don’t have to be in a vest), animals (like the ones at the fair…and kitty!), putting things in and out of containers, sleeping, laughing, eating everything in sight and nonstop including Nutrigrain bars.
Dislikes: Not having more food, getting instructions or hearing “No!”, real veggies, books or reading.
Notes: No more bottle…it’s all sippy cup for me. I still only have two teeth, but that doesn’t stop me from eating like a horse. I’ve had some recurring ear infections, but my tummy is better and I don’t throw up anymore. I wear 12 to 18 month clothes and 3 shoe. Crawling is still my favorite mode of transportation, but I’m getting braver when letting go of things I’ve pulled up on. I know where my head is and like to put random objects atop it. I can clap, wave, high-five, sometimes sign for “more”. I can click my tongue and make sounds for a bear (grrrrr) and kitty (mmmmaaaaaa), and can say Uh Oh (ut ut), but my favorite is to chant “duck-a-duck-a-duck-a”.



Woo Hoo! Happy Birthday! I hope you had an awesome day and got lots of yummy cake! I can’t believe it has been a year. You are growing up so fast. I hope this next year is full of fun and adventure!!
