Feeling better...

Don't mind me, just getting into a good book.

Flying!

Isn't this how everyone plays with their toys?

Although she still isn't herself and not eating much, apparently Anneliese is feeling a bit better today.

ALF under the weather

ALF hasn't been feeling too super lately.  She had some pretty spectacular vomits and pant fillers.  Hopefully it's just a quick bug. 

Mmm... saltines.  Where's my Ginger Ale?

Waffles!

This morning ALF and I went to The Queensbury Hotel for their breakfast buffet.  She almost finished an entire blueberry waffle by herself.  I've never been more proud. 

Want some?

13 Months Old!

 

 

Just a typical day...

 

Update: Anneliese successfully transitioned to whole milk at 12 months 2 weeks, which actually was much easier than we thought it would be. She is also feeding herself with a spoon (usually upside down), using a fork and also a big girl sippy cup 75% of the time. She will be seeing an allergist in the near future to confirm her cat/dog/egg white/house dust allergies. Stay tuned...

What does an owl say?

12 Month Check Up

Anneliese had a great 12 month check up other than discovering she has a double ear infection. She has had a cold for the past week but she has been pretty tough and not letting it bother her. Hopefully the antibiotics kick in soon and she'll be good as new.

Length: 30 in. = 72%
Weight: 21 lbs 5 ounces = 49%
Head Circumference: 18.75" = 96%

She also got her blood drawn for a RAST test to check for environmental and food allergies. Hopefully it comes back negative.

Look at that baby in the window

Hmmm... what's all this?

I love how my first reaction isn't "No! Don't do that!" its "Awww... stay there doing that terrible thing while I go get the camera." 

Three Minutes of Ice Cream!

Cooper's Cave ice cream is delicious

ALF votes!

ALF practiced her civic duty today!  She voted for a bunch of old men and one lady.  Yay democracy!

It was a graveyard smash

A sleeping baby and a creepy moustache

 

Awww... how adorable.  ALF is cute too.  

Pop has been diagnosed with prostate cancer.  In order to make a difference for him and the 1 in 6 men who will be diagnosed in their lifetime, I am partipating in Movember.  My commitment is to grow a moustache for the month of November and by changing my appearance, raise vital awareness and funds for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer initiatives.
