I then started questioning if I had done all the right things as a mom this past year. Had we played enough? Read enough? Sang enough? Did I give her the right amount of attention? Could we have done better in any aspect of our parenting? Don't ask me why I was doing this. I know it's crazy because I know I've done a good job as a mom. I have done my best. I have had hard days but we make it through them and it's comforting to know we can start anew each day. Not a day goes by that she isn't smothered with love by everyone around her. And that is enough.
At 12 months Liv:
- loves to share
- is starting to refuse food she doesn't like (a select few)
- she really is a great eater (especially if daddy has a taste)
- points at everything with her hand like a gun (pointer finger and thumb out)
- stands on her own
- loves dancing (especially Uptown Funk, Chandelier & Fleetwood Mac)
- is so good at following directions & we are amazed at how much she understands
- claps for herself when she's done something right
- learned how to stack blocks
- still loves doing Tommy Boy
- loves playing hide and seek
- has been super cuddly lately and wants me to hold her all the time
- has two bottom teeth and the top 4 are coming in
- has started climbing on things
Weight: 19 lbs

Here's a flashback through the past 12 months.
12 months of Liv. 12 Months of Bliss.
Here's a video Aaron made for her birthday. We can't watch it without crying every single time. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
