Month TWELVE



12 months... my oh my where did the time go??? Calleigh, your first year has been a whirlwind of excitement and learning! We are SO blessed to be your parents and couldn't imagine life without you! You brighten every day and are loved by everyone you meet. We love watching you grow and discover new things. You are curious, yet cautious, silly, sooo smart, and simply beautiful in every way! We love you SO much and can't wait to see what God has in store for you over the next twelve months!

This month Calleigh had her twelve month well visit with Dr.Crow a week after she turned one. Since she typically runs a low grade fever with her vaccinations and this appointment was packed with them, I didn't want to do that to her the day before her birthday party, so we waited a week. At this appointment Calleigh weighed in at 18 pounds 7 ounces (28th percentile) and was 27 1/4 inches (3rd percentile). A tiny little squirt, but still no worries because there is growth. Dr. Crow was actually quite impressed. Calleigh was walking around the room, talking, and pointing at things nonstop. He said that she was developmentally more like a 15 month old than a 12 month old! We also found out at this appointment that Calleigh is anemic... which could be the underlying factor in why her immune system stayed run down and why she seemed to pick up every virus she came in contact with :( She was placed on an iron supplement and scheduled to go back in a month for a recheck.

Calleigh's 12 Month Milestones:

  • sleeping 10-11 hours straight at night
  • 6-9 months, 9 months clothes
