Alyssa - Age 1 - A Real Walking, Talking Toddler
January 2005 started off with a Care Bear birthday in our home. Alyssa was 29.5 inches tall and weighed 18 lbs and 3 oz (10%). Her percentiles caused her grandparents great concern - just wait, she's gonna show them! Nickname is predominately Boo Boo. Splashed into the big bathtub, goes through the solid food testing without any problems, loves blueberries. Gets a new "big girl" car seat. Frequent traveller to NC and GA - visits Mattie & Luke. Loves to read books and play with Mega Blocks. Enjoys smearing food all over face but picky eater otherwise. Started daycare at 16 months, walked the second day there. Becomes quite fond of Izzy. Loves to dance at weddings, especially with Dada. Loves her personal swimming pool. Walks over the new Cooper River Bridge (Ravenel) at it's Grand Opening. First real haircut 9/23 - 21 months old. Attends Ellison family vacation to Grand Canyon and Las Vegas. Visits the Pumpkin patch and dresses up as Funshine Care Bear for Halloween. Loves to swing and play in neighborhood parks. Talks to grandparents on the phone, usually lamenting either that "Maggie popped the ball" or that "Tipper has sharp teeth." Loves jump castles and becomes a serious climber. A good "helper" with sweeping and mopping - but somehow the house is always a total wreck! Loves to play in laundry hampers. Dr. Boo Boo vists Dr. Poppy's Office in Mo'town. We start Time Out - our home is enveloped in Care Bears.
