Happy Birthday, Gabriela! Happy Birthday to You!


Posted by Picasa
Our little princess is one whole year old. We can't believe how quickly it's gone by and much Gabriela has grown. We couldn't ask for a happier, sweeter, or more darling little baby. We love you to pieces, little sunshine!

One Year Old Info

Words Gabriela Says:
Mama, Dad (she’s so grown up), Dog, Book, Done, On, and of course, NO. She has said banana before, but not consistently

Signs:

Milk, More, Water, Book, Airplane, Bye-Bye, “I Hear It”, All Done,

The only sign Gabriela pairs with the word consistently is BOOK. She loves to read and asks for books all the time. We are so proud of her

Facts & Figures:

  • Gabriela has 4 teeth on top and 2 on bottom
  • She weighs just over 19 lbs
  • Gabriela has still not shown a preference for one hand or the other – she switches hands to give signs, suck her thumb, or eat which ever way is most convenient.
Gabriela Loves:
  • To be worn- she crawls excitedly to us the moment we pull out the baby carrier
  • Finding all the light switches and turning them on and off
  • Going for walks and stopping to watch the birds and touch all the flowers and leaves on trees
  • Dogs!
  • Reading

Gabriela Doesn't Like:

  • having her teeth brushed or her face wiped
  • The big exercise ball - she's terrified of it.
Favorite Foods:
  • all kinds of berries
  • smoothies
  • cheese
  • Thai food :)
