Our Sweet Erin Rose turned 1 year old on August 23!! We had such a wonderful time celebrating her birthday on many occasions with family.
Erin weighs 15 lbs. 15 oz. and 28 inches long.
She is small but mighty!
This is the same "1" that I took pictures of Ellie with when she turned one and at the same location at the park. Erin has changed so much! She continues to cruise on furniture and loves standing herself up from a squatted position. Still not taking steps unassisted yet. She is also not crazy about keeping her shoes and socks on her feet. We are going to have to work on that before the winter comes!
Erin loves clapping, waving, blowing kisses, playing Peek A Boo, swinging, trying to climb on furniture, climb in the bath tub, and just being outside.
She loves pushing things around the house, baby stroller, shopping cart, boxes, etc. Even though her head barely looks over the top.
Erin is a little cuddly bug! And my shadow most of times, when she's not following Ellie around. She is very chatty, vocal, and loves to make noise. Erin is also super friendly.
My little peanut is officially done nursing as of 3 weeks ago. She is exclusively on whole milk and eating like a champ now! She prefers drinking from straws rather than sippy cups. And she just wants to eat what everyone else is eating. The transition from nursing went a lot easier than I anticipated it would. Over the course of about a month I slowly weaned her and she did great! She loves blueberries, pears, peaches, peas, green beans, black beans (really any kind of beans), recently had salmon and loved it, zucchini, squash, potatoes, avocado, grilled cheese, bananas, pasta, cheese. You name it! She really has improved on her eating since turning one!!! She loves to feed herself with a spoon, but makes for a BIG mess ;) I feel good that she will start putting on more weight now.
We were at the O'Donnells on her birthday and had a great time! Ellie helped me make banana cupcakes with cream cheese icing. They were yummy yummy!
Ready for Cupcakes!!!
Sweet big sister trying to put on Erin's birthday hat. Ellie was really good about helping make Erin's birthday special. A couple weeks later when we celebrate with my parents Ellie did say "But Erin already had her birthday."
We made yellow cake and chocolate icing for Erin's celebration with CeCe and GPa (a family favorite). Ellie helped make 2 mini cakes for she and Erin. Erin loved feeding GPa her cake more than eating it herself.
All Done!!!
Erin signs for "all done", "more", and just this week started signing for "milk". We are working on please, thank you, and water.
Since turning one Erin has 3 Teeth!! Yay!! And the 2nd top tooth are cutting through right now. So almost 4 teeth. Phew! It's about time!
We have also started swim classes. Much like her sister, she is a water baby too!
We love you Erin Rose!!
