Gemma is ONE!

Wow. The first year definitely goes by faster with your second child. I can't believe it. It feels like yesterday I was impatiently waiting for Gemma to make her (week late) entrance to the world.

This little lady is the LIGHT of our lives. She is all smiles all (most) of the time.

She is drooling buckets. Still only 7 teeth though.

She took her first steps!! and spent all month practicing three or four steps at a time. She's really starting to walk more but not walking 100% of the time yet.

Her favorite toy is a random baby doll that cries that Elsie got at her first Christmas. Gemma loves it!

She started saying words! She can say Mama, Dada, hi, hey, out, and hot.

She's still waking at night usually once or twice. Every now and then she'll sleep through.

We made it a whole year breastfeeding!! So excited for us! Not sure when /how to stop. She has milk about 5 times a day. She absolutely does not like regular cows milk.

She eats mostly table foods with some puree pouches to get veggies in her.  She's getting a little more picky lately. Sometimes she'll eat everything you give her and other times she'll throw it in the floor one by one.

We celebrated Gemma's birthday back at the end of December with family in Ohio. However,we've been celebrating all month really and  she had a few gifts and a blueberry muffin on the eve of her birthday at home with me and Elsie.

I can't believe we have two toddlers!
