Hunter had his 1 year check up and he weighs a whopping 27 pounds, and is 33 1/4 inches tall! He has remained in the 97th+ percentile throughout this first year in both weight and height. He has been saying "mama" constantly for the past few months but has recently added "dada" to his vocabulary. The two most important words in the english language, to me at least. :) He does a few tricks on command, (most of the time) like clap, wave, kiss, hug, pat, stomp, dance, and he knows where his head and tummy are. He knows his "monkey" and "hippo" stuffed animals if you ask him to get them, his fire truck, books, ball, train, car, blocks, and bucket. He loves playing with all of his birthday gifts except he has a fear of riding in or on anything. I'm sure he will warm up to the idea though soon.
He is officially eating regular family meals, meaning no more baby food, but still with restrictions, and still on his schedule. I replaced his bottle with his sippy cup with absolutely no struggle within about 2 weeks. How did I get so lucky to have such an easy going kid?
We joined Gymboree now that he is a year old, which is a class once a week where he can play and learn with other kids his age. At first he would just push and pull hair and steal toys away but now he's gotten used to it and thinks he rules the climbing tower. Its amazing watching his personality form and seeing him grow into a little boy.
