12 Month Check Up!

It is hard to believe that Eva is a one year old. She has displayed toddler traits for some time so I suppose I should be more comfortable with this transition than I am. We had twelve month check up yesterday and she continues to be in the 97% for height (31 inches) but she slimmed down with all of her movement as well as an eight day stomach virus that she caught on our trip to Omaha. So, now she is in the 50% for weight. I miss her rolls of baby fat. I loved her Michelin man arms and legs. Dr. Heigel was impressed with Eva's extensive vocabulary as well as her well developed gross and fine motor skills. We chuckled to think that just a few months ago at her four month check up we were seriously concerned that Eva would never move her arms and legs since we had to keep her swaddled all the time with her colic. Boy are we glad those days are over! Once Eva gets over her stomach virus we will start to work in whole milk and move away from formula. She also wants us to get rid of bottles over the next three months.
