The week of Campbell's 1st birthday we switched her to a "big girl" carseat. She only weighs 17 pounds and will have to face backward for a loooooong time but it's still exciting. My baby is growing up!

One Year Letter

Dearest Campbell,

I know I'm a few weeks late in writing this letter, but it's very busy around here. First of all, you got your 1st "real" cold a week before your birthday. Poor baby. There is nothing worse than seeing you not smiling and feeling yucky. You were well for your birthday and then got another cold a week or so after when it snowed here in Houston.

I can't believe I have a one year old. You are so busy these days. You are almost walking-- you let go and take a few steps and then fall. I don't know what I will do when you are actually walking (it's coming soon).

You are eating everything these days! Only table food and milk (as of your 1 yr checkup whole milk). You love yogurt, peas, crackers, pears, sweet potatoes, calflower, broccoli and apples. You are like a bottomless pit. You have a very high metabolism like your momma. You are down to only one bottle a day (weep weep) and soon will lose that lonely bottle too. I can't believe I have packed up most of your bottles. I remember when Lollie gave us them. I was thinking they were so "big". Wow how time flies! It's your turn now, Cam.

Oh. My. Gosh. I am hating your molars right now. For the past month (yes, other mom's I said MONTH) you have been cutting all 4 molars and one tooth in the front all at the same time. You wake up around 3am every morning with a gut wrenching pain cry. It breaks my heart. You usually have your blanket in your mouth when I come in. You just want to sleep it's so sad. So I rock you back to sleep.

You love to go on walks. We have been walking a lot since the weather has been so nice. You also talk, talk, talk! You try and repeat everything I say. You still say "dada" and "tank da" a lot.

Big change this month-- on your birthday weekend Daddy switched you to a 'big girl carseat' (again, weep weep!). Of course it's still rear facing because you don't weigh enough to be forward facing (you look so tiny in it-- you definitely could have stayed in your infant carseat for alittle longer). I don't think you will be forward facing for a long, loooong time since you are in the 1%! Speaking of 1%, you are wearing 6-9 month clothes. (yep, you read write).

Melt. My. Heart. (and everyone else's too!) You give your daddy and me sugars. Can I just say I LOVE THESE SWEET KISSES!!!! You open your mouth wide and put them on my cheek. I have to admit I ask for sugars all day long ;)

You are still sleeping 13 1/2 hours a night. You wake up at 8am and eat breakfast, nap from 10-11:15am, eat lunch at 11:30am, nap from 2-3:30pm (when Addy wakes you up barking from seeing the mailman!!-ugh!!), snack around 3:45pm, dinner at 5pm, bath around 6:30pm and bed at 7pm. Same. routine. every. day. It really helps make for a happy baby. Speaking of happy-- you are the happiest baby I have ever seen! Almost always giggling or smiling. You're favorite new trick is clapping when I sing "If you're happy and you know it". You light up. PRECIOUS!

We had your birthday and it was so much fun. Strawberry Shortcake themed--precious! Some of your favorite toys at the moment are your coupe car, walker, house from Lollie & Poppy, Pink Rock-a-Poodle, block/shape box.

1 yr stats:

17 pounds, 2 ounces (1%)

27 3/4 inches (1%)

We love you so much Campbell! You are truly a delight to be around. We feel so blessed to be your parents. Happy One Year Birthday Sweet Girl :)

Love,

Mommy & Daddy

Birthday Chair

I just had to share this. Campbell is having so much fun playing with all of her toys from her birthday (you should see our living room!). The chair that Laura and Marcel got her has been a HUGE hit! She keeps practicing getting in and out of it. This morning she crawled in it and sat down (for 3 whole mins) and watched Mama Mia with me. It was like she was a little human. She sat perfectly still. The chair is perfect and just her size. Thanks Laura and Marcel! You always know just what little C needs :)

A Berry Sweet 1st Birthday

For Campbell's birthday we had a Strawberry Shortcake theme at our house. It was so cute! One of my teaching friends graciously offered to make the cake (Thank you Donna!!), Campbell's mini cake, and the cupcakes. Everyone had a great time and I'm sure was strawberry'ed out. Campbell is SO blessed to have so many wonderful people that love her!
