Weight: 22 lbs. 3.5 oz. (4th%) Height: 33.25″ (35%) Head Circumference: 18″ (10%) Nothing new there! Her percentiles have pretty much stayed the same every check-up. The big excitement is that since she’s a whopping 22 lbs, we’ve finally turned her car seat around so she faces forward. Everyone can stop making fun of us [...]

Our little monkey turned two yesterday! We had a fun-filled day starting with a party at the community center’s indoor playground with some of her friends from our Mama’s Group. After that, Daddy took her out just the two of them to get a Jamba Juice (a special treat around here) and she got to [...]

Guess who went pee-pee and poopy on the potty yesterday? Ok, no don’t guess… Anna did! It was totally out of the blue so I have no expectations that she will be potty trained anytime soon, nor are we going to actually try to potty train her right now since she’s so young. If she [...]

Anna had her 12 month check up last week, and as usual, is doing wonderfully. Height: 28.25″ (8th percentile) Weight: 17 lbs, 1.25 oz (3rd percentile) Head Circumference: 17″ (5th percentile) Yep, still teeny tiny. After a year of hearing those percentiles, I’ve finally stopped asking the doctor, “Is that okay? Why is she so [...]

Anna has been working on walking more and more everyday, although she still prefers crawling when she’s on a serious mission and needs to get somewhere fast. Here’s a little snippet of her wobbling along! Video: Anna Walking

Anna turned 11 months today! To celebrate, she took 4 steps on her own! She was double-fisting some graham crackers at the time, so they probably helped her feel a bit more stable. Things are about to get pretty exciting around here!
