15 months

Marin is just growing so quickly.  I look back at pictures from just a few months ago and I feel like she's not a little baby anymore.  She's my buddy though, and we have so much fun together.  At her 15 month appointment she weighed 26 pounds and was 32 1/4 inches (95th% for both).  She is so good at her animal noises (sheep, cow, duck, elephant, dog, cat, horse, bird, bee).  She babbles and talks all the time.  She loves to babble in her car seat especially.  Here are some pictures from her one year photo shoot.  I'm really behind!  She loved this photo shoot at the beginning, and as it continued she grew a little impatient with us.  For her one year check up she was 35 pounds and 31 inches.  This new stage of walking and running around has had a few accidents come with it.  She fell at the playground one day and her two front teeth were shoved up back inside her gums.  They seem to be coming back down, so hopefully there won't be any long term damage there.  Then she was running in the house one day and slipped and hit her head on the hardwood floor.  We had to take her to the ER to get stitches.  It has healed up really well, and hopefully her eyebrow will cover up most of the scar.  I'm sure this is the first of many times she will give me a minor heart attack in my life.

Moss Rock

We love going over to The Preserve and hiking Moss Rock.  It's a fun outdoor adventure for us, and it's nice that it's so close to us.  Here are some pictures from our latest trip.
