Makenna is One!

As most of you know, Makenna turned One on Memorial Day. It was a busy time for us since I travelled to Pittsburgh with the kids for a week so we just went to her One year old check up today. She weighs 20 lbs 12 oz, is 28 1/2 inches tall, and her head size is 44.4 cm. She is in the 25th - 50th percentile range for all of those. The doctor was very impressed with her walking and her talking. He was also impressed with how well she listens to direction. (At least one of my children does!) She is such the happy girl now smiling and waving at everyone. He said her social skills are definitely good, which is no surprise when you look at her father. =) Her new favorite thing is a pretend cell phone that has the Disney Princesses on it. She loves to carry it around, open and close it, and push all of the buttons. She's not into TV yet, which is good, and is starting to love books more and more. Her favorite book right now is called, "Grandma and Me." It has flaps that she can open which is the part she loves the most. As you can see her hair is growing out more and more and she is becoming more and more of a blondie. I get compliments all the time on her big blue eyes, which again are credited to her father. We are just enjoying her so much. She is such a good little girl and I just hope that stays at least for a little while!
