Oh how she has grown...

More documentation since I am too lazy to actually write it in her baby book...

9 month appointment:
18.3 lbs
28" long

12 month appointment:
20.6 lbs - 50%
30.5" long - 90%

She started crawling April 30th -- Chad and I were on vacation so MiMi was the witness - it was her 9 month birthday
She got her two top center teeth May 24th
She got the two top next to center teeth May 30th
- yes they really did come in all around the same time -- four teeth! Overachiever!
Starting walking at school on June 12th and witness by us on June 13th
Two more teeth - bottom - one poked through and one right under the surface July 18th

It seems she only gets teeth on Saturdays! Ok maybe it is a sad comment on the fact that I don't notice these things until the weekend.

Healthy baby girl! We are beyond blessed...

Z Famous Quotes

While some of these make no sense (and they caused me to say "I am sorry what did you say?") they will certainly make you smile:


"God made waffles from Saturn."


"I am a Caucasian! I am a transformer!"

"Don't cut my toenails - they make me taller."

I saw Z near the bathroom and I yelled (which I seem to do often these days) "Zachary you need to wash your hands" to which he rightfully yelled back " I have to potty first!"

During the year we keep our Christmas tree in the attic and it is an ordeal to pull it down and put it up for storage. At the end of the holidays last year I told Z that it was time to take the Christmas tree down and corrected me "No mom it is time to put the Christmas tree up." He got me on a technicality.

NonAnimated shows are "People Shows"

Carbonated beverages are "Spicy"

Pointing to an RV "Look Mom an annidoe [sounds like antidote w/o the t] - they take lots of people everywhere well except the airport because they don't know how to get to the airport." EDITORS NOTE: Chad pointed out that he is trying to say Winnibago

After eating one of my mother's nasty no sugar, no white flour, lots of fiber muffins he was asked if he liked it to which he responded: "You get used to it."


As a firetruck goes by: "I hope they aren't going to my house. That would be bad." Followed by me saying "You are right that would be bad." To which he replies: "Don't worry Mom - I have a fireman hat and we have a hose. I'll take care of it."
