Nevi's Birthday celebration in Colorado, one week later
We decided to celebrate one year of Nevi, not just once, but twice. When we returned from Indiana, my mom and aunt Lynn flew out to Colorado to spend some time with us and see Nevi at one year old. They stayed with us from Thursday (the 11th) through Tuesday (the 16th) and we had an awesome visit. Additionally, we invited some close friends over last Saturday from 4p-7p where we continued our Nevi celebration, enjoyed some great cake and had lots of good munchkin playtime. The house was packed and we couldn't have been happier. Our family and our friends constantly remind us of how truly blessed and supported we are. We had Nevi's one year doctor checkup on 3/10 and, again, they told us nothing we didn't already know.... she's a healthy and hearty chick. She weighed in at 20 pounds 8 ounces, only one pound more than she was at 9 months but doc says she's leveling out and obviously very active. She's in the 25% in weight and 95% in height for a 'typical' one year old. Right on track to take after her daddy-o. She's got 6 teeth, 2 on the bottom and 4 on top, and doc said her molars are starting to come in, too. She also just started whole cow milk, which she seems to really like. She's a good drinker and good eater, loves any vegetables and fruits you offer her. Right on track to take after her mommy-o in this regard. She usually sleeps around 12 hours each night and still takes 2 naps a day so far. She's a light sleeper but is good at going down and following the sleep routine. She LOVES to dance and hug and play outside. She loves dogs and pants every time she sees one. We're really having fun now! Her personality continues to shine and is quite amazing to watch.

1 year Birthday Party!
Traveled to Anderson, Indiana to celebrate Nev's first birthday last weekend. Nana homemade a cake for Nevi, plus an additional mini 'smash' cake for Nevi to have her way with. She was a perfect lady, however, and nibbled politely on her cake (don't know where she gets these manners from). The carrots that she ate after her cake, however, were a little more messy. We were surrounded by loving friends and family in celebration, so for this we are grateful. Thanks to all for the very sweet gifts and efforts put forth to create an awesome day for Nevi! How great thou art!
