One Year Old

Amaya is officially a toddler now.  Where did this last year go?  It seems like just yesterday I was snuggling a newborn and now I'm chasing after a soon-to-be walker.  This year has definately been a learning experience for me, Michael, and of course Amaya.  It seems like as soon as we get a handle on her latest phase, she changes it up and moves onto a new one. 

She is now 22 pounds and 28 inches tall.  She loves her kitties and most of all her stuffed monkey.  She is not a picky eater, but insists on feeding herself.  Her favorite food is ravioli (with or without sauce) and she really likes Strawberry-Kiwi Fruit Splashers juice (Gerber).  She is growing like a weed and now wears 12-18month clothing and size 4/5 shoes (size 4 is a little too small, but 5 is too big yet).  She doesn't have a favorite color yet, but she seems to prefer bright colors over dull ones.  She is crawling (fast!) and trying to walk.  She will walk around the house holding onto our fingers or holding onto couches, tables, and toys.
