15 Pounds and Pediatrician Appointment

She did it!!!  She reached 15 pounds and she also made it on the charts.  She is 5% for weight, almost 5% for height, and the little missy has a big brain...50% for her head measurement.  She had a great check-up with the pediatrician and everything looks really good.  She is doing great with her development and I am guessing she is going to start crawling in the next month or two.  She loves to stand up and is almost doing it without my help...she probably can do it without my help, but I am very cautious.  She is babbling like crazy and still finds mama much easier.  I think she has said dada a few times, but mama is always on her lips...I spend a lot of time telling her mama so that she will say it more too.  She also figured out that she can roll all over the place to get around and that is her new little trick.  It is really cute to watch her figure out that she can get around a room and I am pretty sure she is enjoying showing off her skills to her brothers.




I will be including information on all my posts about our Children's Heart Foundation Family Fun Day.  We have received many great donations from wonderful companies in Ohio and around the United States.  We are really excited to be coordinating this event and hope that we can see many of you that follow along with our blog at the Family Fun Day.  I know Hope will enjoy meeting her many followers and sharing her first birthday celebration with you!  Please take a look at the website to see the great items we have received to raffle off and provide as donations to the Children's Heart Foundation.  We will also have a 50/50 raffle that anyone can buy tickets for and you could be the winner of some big money!  If nothing else, please consider donating to the Children's Heart Foundation.  It is a great organization and provides wonderful benefits to all heart families through funding research and bringing awareness to congenital heart defects.
