Hummmm, what's in here?

Well, after a month in the making Melanie finally had her 2nd day of school. She was sick and then we went out of town so it took a little while but it finally came. Yet again Melanie had a great day. My dad took her this time and she was fine with him leaving and jumped right down to play with the toys. She was tired by the end again b/c she would not nap at school but the teachers are great and were holding her and rocking her. So all in all a great 2nd day.

Melanie also had her 1 year old doctor appointment- it is so hard to believe! I took the day off to spend with her. She did fairly well at the doctor. She did not like being checked, weighed, or given shots, but who can blame her? She weighed 22 lbs. Her height and weight are in the 60th percentile and she still has a little head which is in the 25th percentile. She is meeting all of the developmental milestones and progressing along perfectly. She is not walking but she is definitely trying! She pulls up and cruises along and will sometimes let go but she still loves to crawl. The doctor was glad she was off the bottle and encouraged us to let the pacifier go in the next 6 months- we'll see.... Melanie was a little sore after her 3 shots but she was great fun to play with the rest of the day. I am getting over my 1st sinus infection so it was fun to just sit around the house and play. All in all everything is going great. Here are some recent pictures.
