Kendall finally had her one year check up yesterday (her pediatrician was out of town last week). She is 20 lbs. 3 oz. (54th %) and 29.72 inches long (65th %). She has grown so much! Looking back at her 2 month check up, she was in the 20th % for weight and only 0.97th % for height!
Kendall hates the doctors office. She starts crying the minute the nurse or doctor come anywhere near her. Not just wimpering, full blown screaming with real tears (even though I'm holding her). Luckily, brother was at school so I could focus all my energy on Kendall.....I was sweatin' bullets by the time we got out of there!

Me? This sweet face?...yep, don't let her fool ya! |
Good news is, she is doing great and is completely healthy :) She is doing so many new things! She pulls up on anything and everything and cruises really well. She loves to pull up on people and then let go and stand all by herself. Then instead of walking, she just falls into you!

Falling while I tried to take pictures, eyes closed with complete trust that I'll catch her :) |
She is starting to talk a lot too. She says mama, dada, sissy, dog, uh-oh, bye bye, ba ba and she loves to scream with Colson! She pretty much has given up most baby food and eats what we eat. I do still try to give her baby food veggies to keep her diet a little healthier. Her favorite foods are peas, any sort of bread, pasta and Mexican rice (the girl devours it!). She drinks water and juice from a big girl cup with meals but still loves her bottles before nap and bedtime. Her naps are changing :( She is still a good morning napper (although as I'm typing she is talking in her bed and hasn't napped!). Her afternoon nap is shorter if at all. So sad we seem to be ending the 2 nap phase. She is mostly happy, especially at home. She will immediately cry if I walk away from her though-no matter where we are. She is allowed to wander from me, but I better not move...especially to change laundry, wash dishes, make lunch/dinner, etc. Oh Kendall!
This sweet girl loves to "give love". She leans her head into yours <3 She's a little ornery too. Colson is so easily riled up and I believe she has figured that out. She will merely touch his hair and he hollers and she just smiles from ear to ear! They do play together nicely sometimes though :)
She already looks up to her sissy so much and still lights up when she sees Alyvia. They often hold hands in the car when we pick Livi up from school.
We can't believe you are one already and we know time will only go faster from here. We can't wait to see what your next year brings and watch as your little personality keeps growing. We love you so Baby <3
