12-month Appointment and more from #1 birthday

Adalyn had her one-year appointment on Monday. She was walking everywhere in the waiting room, practically doing laps! Again, as soon as we set her on the exam table she got upset. She just remembers what happens when she goes to the doctor! She is doing great with her stats, though. Her weight is 19 lbs. 7 oz., so she is staying consistently in the 25th percentile. She is 30.5 inches tall, which is an increase up to the 90th percentile. She had her shots and will have another appointment at 15 months.

At 12 months,
Adalyn has been walking very well, and there is no slowing her down! She does still crawl sometimes and she is very fast. She has eight teeth and is really good at biting off pieces of food and feeding herself finger foods. Her favorite snacks are puffs, little pieces of toast and ritz crackers. She still likes to eat pureed foods and I blend up our meals for her in our magic bullet blender. It works great for foods that are not bite-sized and she is getting a large variety of foods. She has been eating small pieces of pasta and likes small pieces of fruit and veggies to feed herself too. She is just starting on whole milk now and seems to like it so far.
She loves exploring and learning new things, especially how her new birthday toys work!

Here are some more pictures from the party:
