Day 5: One Year

-
Little Miss, at One Year...

-You wear size 3 diaper
-You weigh 16 pounds 12 ounces 
-You are 27 inches long
-You wear {mostly} 9-12 month clothes
-You sleep for 11-12 hours/night
-You eat 3 meals, 2+ snacks and nurse at night
-You have 2 teeth 
You like to eat cheese, grapes, bananas, apple sauce, yogurt, pears, peaches, ice cream, a bagel with butter, oranges, peanut butter and jelly, graham crackers, goldfish, cheerios, baked beans, fig newtons, deli meat, chicken nuggets, french fries & much more!

 You love MUSIC, dancing, toys with noise, waving to the dog, crawling into the garage, being outside, bath time, playing peek-a-boo, taking things out of bags/off of shelves and tables, sucking your thumb, reading books, going on walks, Sesame Street videos on Youtube, feeding the dog from your high chair, going "bye-bye"- even if it's just to get the mail, swinging at the park and watching/hearing videos of yourself

 You don't (always) love diaper changes, getting strapped into your car seat, constricting hugs (that your Daddy gives), getting dressed, teething, being away from me, the church nursery (you're getting better), when we take something away from you (phone/TV clicker/wallflower air freshener), prolonged shopping trips, kissing your Daddy (scratchy face), drinking cow's milk and wearing shoes 
You're able to wave "hi" and "bye bye", give kisses (to me or your baby doll), pull up on objects, cruise from one piece of furniture to the next, stand alone-only for a second, clap your hands, say "mama" and "dada", feed yourself-with your hands, drink from a sippy cup, go outside or to the garage backwards-by turning around first, walk behind your walking toy, open a hard back book-and turn the pages and give a "high-five"

3 Reasons

3 Reasons:  Why It's a Good Idea to Move (Because "The Reasons Why We Shouldn't Move" would be too long &  too sappy)  1. I'm less likely to run into people from Middle School . This reason specifically addresses my 8th grade English teacher. I've probably seen her every year since the 8th grade and considering that that was thirteen years  ago, that's a lot of times. I've always resisted the urge to walk up to her and say, "You never taught me how to diagram sentences! You're the reason I'm not a writer!" But if I happen to see her after I move, I'll take it as a sign and invite her out to lunch...where she might just teach me how to diagram sentences. 2. It's a ritzy, upscale place . We're moving to a place where people are well off. Yes, there will be drawbacks to this and I probably wouldn't pick it if I had a choice (but that's a blog post for another day). While there will be drawbacks, the

First, dear readers, we have some business to take care of. I'd like to do semi-regular posts on "Thrifting" (something catchy like like Thankful Thursdays) All I have so far is... More of Caris' Inheritance Down the Drain Mondays or Stuff in my house Saturdays [Please submit any ideas] I have inner conflict (deep, counseling word) when it comes to Thrifting. I legitimately don't want a bunch of stuff in my house so the obvious answer would be to avoid shopping altogether (moment of silence while part of me DIES). But the thrill of the hunt keeps me going back again and again. I feel like we've talked about this before... sorry I looked into joining the local Y as an alternative to shopping, . I pictured Tiny Su and I swimming daily and pumping some iron until I found out that it was ninety-nine dollars  a month. That doesn't exactly fit into the monthly budget so my weekly solo outings usually consist of grocery shopping, walk
