It's 5 days before Christmas

And 7 months since Amelia was born. I've never felt so alive or joyful during the holidays as this year. The stats: Miss A is measuring in the 75th percentile for both height and weight. Sitting up. Talking. Teething. Eating. Sleeping. . .? Well, there is always room for improvement right? She is still on medication for reflux and still allergic to dairy, but all are being managed much better than before. We are over the hump for the first year and, quite frankly, that makes me a little sad. I can't wait to see her grow and look forward to the future, but am so enjoying her now. She smiles and laughs easily, sits up and entertains herself, sits on my hip, and loves her mommy and daddy. . . She's old enough to distract easily, but young enough to keep in one place. She's amazing.
