Charlotte is ONE YEAR OLD!

 Oh my goodness! It's finally here! Charlotte is one year old.  It went so fast.  I can't stop time and it sucks.  But each day that she grows and changes is more amazing than the next. 

Stat Time!
Charlotte is 20.81 pounds which is the 66th percentile.  She is 29.8 inches long which is the 72nd percentile.  Her head circumference is 18.2 inches which is the 83rd percentile.  She's really growing!

She celebrated her birthday at school on Friday.  YUM! Cupcakes!

Look at her class.  She won't be with these youngins any longer.  She's moving up to the big leagues.  She'll be in the 1's class on Monday.  I know she can hold her own but still... I'm not ready.  She's been ready for awhile.  She's so bored with these babies.  Ha! They can hardly walk.  She's steamrolling over them! :-) She also discovered the door and tries to escape every once in awhile.  Her new class has a gate.  That's probably a good thing.

 It kinda sucks that she had to be teething the week before her birthday.  But she handled it well (for the most part). 

 She is a fast walker these days.  She prefers it to crawling in most cases.  She almost hops too.  It's too cute.

 Always walking walking walking...

 And walking! (Even with no pants!)

 When you sit her down to take a birthday pic, she doesn't want to sit still! She must stand! She has the same FOMO (fear of missing out) that Tommy has. :)

Random side story.  Andrew and I were watching John Oliver's show and he brought out a unicorn when talking about Scotland.  Charlotte made a beeline for the tv.  She was obsessed with this unicorn.  Too funny! But I get it, Char.  Unicorns are awesome.

Charlotte's personality is so much fun.  She loves being around her mama at ALL TIMES (which can sometimes be not so fun) but if someone picks her up to carry her out of the room, she will cry and scream but also wave bye bye at the same time.  It is hilarious.  She LOVES blowing kisses.  MmmmWAH! She does it over and over again.  It's too cute! She loves to laugh and play and is happy almost constantly.  Her teachers say she's a joy to take care of which makes me happy/proud but also jealous too.  She really is a joy to be around (except for those nights when she's teething).  She's our little girl and we are lucky to be her parents.

Happy birthday, Charlotte! We love you so much!
