David at One Year

Height: 31 inches (75%)
Weight: 21.4 lbs. (25%)
Words he can say: "mama", "dada", "bye-bye", and a LOT of babbling with inflection!
Favorite foods: broccoli, potatoes, peas, avacado, banana, spinach nuggets, yogurt, cheese... honestly the list could go on and on. He has quite an appetite!
Favorite toys: balls, trucks, blocks, musical instruments, and his walking toy. David plays very well by himself on most days.
Favorite books: "Oh, David!", "Oops", "Goodnight Moon", "Tractors", "Farm". David now likes to read them by himself... he points to the pictures and says "dis" over and over. It is very fun to watch him read!
David's personality: David remains somewhat serious, but can be very giggly (see below) and he loves to give and receive kisses. He still doesn't cuddle much and when its time to go to bed, he would rather you put him straight in his crib with some books to read than rock with you... he is growing up so fast! He is very curious and will sit with a toy (like his shape sorter) and play until he gets all the blocks in the bucket correctly. He doesn't walk alone yet, but his confidence is growing daily in the balance department. He absolutely loves music and is looking forward to starting "school" next week because they promised him they would sing every morning. God has truly blessed us with a precious child and we are so thankful for the joy he brings us everyday!
