I think this is my all-time favorite picture of my little girl. It captures her innocence, her purity, her wide-eyed approach to the world and her eyes that smile. Our precious Gianna.
Little Miss Independent loves to cruise, moving from one piece of furniture to another. Reaching, stretching, taking some risks.
She is a mad crawler, and really has some wheels.
And, here are her first steps, just last week!
Second favorite picture of Gianna.
At Gianna's 12-month checkup, here are her stats:
Height: 30 3/4 in. (74%)
Weight: 21 lbs, 14 oz. (74%)
Head circumference: 44.5 cm. (25%)
And she likes to eat (and teethe on) shoes. Pink ones.
She's out for a stroll.
In addition to all of Gianna's physical milestones, here are other updates:
* She's a great sleeper, most of the time. We start baths and teethbrushing at around 7:45 and she's asleep by 8:15 pm. She wakes between 8 and 8:30 am.
* When getting Gianna dressed, she enthusiastically punches her hands through the arm holes, like she knows what she's doing. She loves getting her hair brushed and is toughening up her scalp during the ponytail tying.
* Her vocabulary is continuing to develop and her repertoire includes: Mama, Dada, baby, light, dog, Amen, Papa, Nana, Mimi, Grandbob, (Gi)annnna, ruff, mohr (which means more), aye (which means yes), up, dowuuuun, hyyeeeiiiii, byeee byeee.
* She is very loving and likes to give hugs. She and Enzo exchange kisses after our nightly prayers each night.
* Gianna waves hello and bye bye and loves to blow kisses to everyone.
* She is a champion eater. She almost always finishes all her food, and can eat most of the food we eat together as a family. We affectionately call her our lil garbage disposal.
* Gianna loves her dollies. She is such a girlie girl. Hugs them, kisses them, and says "Babbbyyyy."
