1 Year Stats!

We went to the Dr. on Tuesday and Karli had her 1 year checkup! Everything is going fine and the Dr. said she looks perfect and is just beautiful!

Weight- 25lb 11oz (95%)
Length- 31 Inches Tall (95%)

Dr. said that her weight isn't a factor right now because she is so tall! She is a good eater and eats just about anything! She was chowing down on cantelope for dessert last night!

I took her yesterday for shots..I hate doing that. She had to get 1 in each arm, then 1 in her leg. We go back in Oct for 2 or 3 more, then not until she is 4! She was a trooper tho and was a good girl, by the time we left the office she was back to being happy..and being in shock!

She is saying "Bye" and "Mol" for Molly! The laughs and chases the cats. We got her a new red wagon and she loves it. She also loves the rocker,scooter Bike Mom and Dave got her for her bday. She was rocking on it last night and signing.

All in all she is growing so fast and doing something new everyday! I love watching her change and interact each day.

She's 1!

We went and got her picture made on her birthday! She wasn't too happy, but we got some good shots! Then Thurs night everyone came into town for the Birthday Party on Saturday. She really had a good birthday, got lots of presents and she loved the cake! We had to give her a bath afterwards of course. Now I think after every meal she is looking for a cake!

It's hard to believe its been a year already. I take her to the Dr. tomorrow for the 1 year checkup and then I got to get shots at the Health Dept..not sure if I am going tomorrow or not. We will see. I am not looking forward to the shots.

It's back to daycare on Wednesday. I am sure she will love seeing the kids again!

It's Hitting Me..

As we are approaching Karli's 1st Birthday I can't help but reflect on the past. This time last year we were anticipating the arrival anyday. We wonderered if she would have lots of hair, her daddy's heighth, how much she would weigh and of course who she looked like!

Has it really been almost a year? I know everyone would say time flies, but I really didn't realize how fast a year goes until I had Karli. It truley did fly by.

I sent 2 thank you cards to my favorite docs, Dr. Billharz who did my cerclage and Dr. Reardon who delivered Karli. I also sent pics, I figured they would like an update and to see how much she has grown! While I was at work, Dr reardon was on call and came to me and said the card made her tear up. Then Dr. Billharz called me and said that I made his day and the card came at the perfect time that he likes being reminded why he does the job he does. Anyways, I love working with these Dr's and the fact that they helped me get my little miracle baby to term, I cant thank them enough. They will always be special to me.

This time next week..we will have company for KK's Big Birthday Party!! Woohooo! I can't wait...I am looking forward to seeing everyone.

Another update, Karli took 6 steps last night! I missed it, I was out of the room, but apparently she did it twice! She may be walking before she is 1!
