At her 12 month doctor's appointment (which was actually a few days after her actual birthday), Eden weighed in at an incredible 19 pounds and 5.5 ounces, which is the 25th percentile for weight. Her height was also in the 25th percentile, 28 inches, but her head circumferance was at the 50th, a full 45 cm. Compared to her initial stats, 4 lbs 15 oz and 18 inches, she's come a long way.
A week later at the visit for her fever she weighed in at 19 lbs, 12 oz. Guess the lack of appetite wasn't as bad as we thought! The most exciting thing is that it is not too long until we can turn her seat around! We think she'll like facing forward much better than backward. Seems oddly appropriate since a few weeks from now would have been her 1-year birthday had she been born on her due date instead of a month early.
Although we have written about all of her newly-found skills in previous posts, here is a video of Eden's mad 1 yr skills which include walking with her toy (and anything else in the house like chairs, baskets, and stools) and giving kisses (our personal favorite).

I can't wait to see your little pumpkin-doodle! Only a few more weeks! Can't wait!
