16 Months

Gabriela is continuing to progress well. She had her checkup and the doctor said that she is physically and mentally at the development of an 18 month old. She weighs 25lbs and is fairly tall (90%) don't remember the exact numbers!!! She was a flower girl in her cousins wedding on July 31, 2010 in Sea Bright, NJ. It was a beautiful day. She rocked the rehearsal and slept through the wedding!!!! Bob and I had to walk her down the aisle, but she got in a good nap for the reception and literally danced the entire afternoon. She had a blast and certainly knows when the attention is on her and puts on a show. She did all of that with a double ear infection and nasty cold that lasted 2 weeks, as always she is a trooper. She's continuing to be a great eater....last night she tried Gordita turkey meat and loved it. She's talking a lot more.....she says clock, bucket, mama, dada, please, no, I want that, Coco and so much more. She got to spend a lot of time with Nana "B" and Auntie Meg the last 2 weeks, which we both loved a lot. She's becoming more and more independent which is nice to see, yet sad at the same time......I can't believe how fast my little baby is growing up. We love her so much! xoxoxo
