Josie is 1!!

We just returned from Josie's one year checkup and is doing great! She didn't grow as much as they would have predicted but with a week of diaherrea and a week of a viral infection/high fever and 6 new teeth in the past 8 weeks she wasn't the best at always eating and drinking whole bottles so it's to be expected. She was 19.1 pds which was under the 25% for weight and 29.75 inches which was 75% for height. So tall and lean just like Papa...you see she's got a basketball hoop to practice with! Here is an adorable photo from her one year photos. We met with a friend in the park for some pics...can't wait to see and post the rest!
Josie has been walking for two months now.
She is saying mama, dada, daddy, doggy, dat (for that), ow, hiya, yea, uhoh
(The doctor said this is more typical of a 15 to 18 month old).
She loves the park; swinging, sliding, and playing in the sand.
She likes to go for walks and doesn't mind being in the stroller as long as it's moving.
As long as she feels like eating, she is a champion eater and will try and usually like anything.
Her favorites are peas, black olives, ham, strawberries, bananas, and goldfish.
She definetely has an opinion and will voice it with a sqwak or swatting your hands away.
Unfortunately, she has learned how to throw a "tantrum". OY :)
She loves things with buttons and enjoys sound and music.
She is starting to get the hang of using a fork and getting food onto the prongs.
She is independent and likes to do things on her own; like feeding, holding or carrying things.
She turns the light switches on and off when we walk by the switch.
