WOW!!! Happy Birthday to my absolute favorite girl. I can't believe you are one already. This year has flown by. I was so lucky and fortunate to have been able to spend 2/3rd's of it at home with you. It was tough while we were doing it, but I look back now and am so grateful. I wish I was able to do it now. These are the fun times. You are the cutest thing I have ever seen (well, your brother too)!
You are all over the place. You crawl and cruise everywhere. You have just started walking assisted with us. We got you a pretty cool walking/learning toy. So I imagine it won't be long and you will be running right along with your brother. Speaking of him, you adore him. You light up and laugh at him all the time. And you also laugh when he is getting in trouble too. I think this will be something that may continue for many years to come.
You are our eater no doubt. There may be two things that we have put in front of you that you don't like. I have learned to start introducing everything to you. Here are a few things you currently eat:
Breakfast: eggs, muffins, pancakes, yogurt
Lunch/Dinner: nuggets, lunch meat and cheese, grilled cheese, pizza, green beans, baked potato, peas, carrots, corn, spaghetti, ravioli and meatballs
Snacks: applesauce, diced fruit (pears, peaches, pineapples, watermelon, strawberries) cookies, fish, and of course anything sweet
Like I said, not much out there you won't eat. And you try everything!
You love playing with toys. You already don't like it when someone takes something away you are playing with. Apparently at school you don't like it when other friends come near you either. Speaking of school....they call you Chappoo!
You are not much into reading. I hope this is something that will come with age. I can't wait for the day when both you and your brother want to snuggle in the bed or on the couch and read books.
Chappelle, we are so blessed to have you in our lives. We were surprised, in a good way, when we find out we were having you and even more surprised when we found out on your birthday that you were a sweet girl. You have been an eye opener in so many different ways. I didn't know I could love someone the way I love you. Don't get me wrong, I love your brother just as much as I love you, but in different ways. I can't wait to see what else you have in store for us. Thanks you for blessing us and becoming apart of our lives. It is now perfectly complete with you in it.
I love you bunches sweet girl,
Mommy
