Today, Janelle turns exactly one year old! We will be holding 2 parties for her tomorrow and on Sunday. As for today, it shall just be a 'quiet' day to prepare for the 2 gatherings over the weekend :)
As we were choosing photos taken of Janelle at different months to put into a picture frame, it struck me that she has grown so much! - from a tiny infant (well, not exactly tiny, but still tiny compared to her size now!), to a little girl who can now walk around. For adults, one year can pass by us without much significant change. But for a baby, a year makes a whole lot of difference - especially in physical stature - even though we do not realise it sometimes! We really give thanks to God for His faithfulness in this one year - for nurturing her growth to the little girl she is right now. It is a reminder of how God is alive and working in our lives despite the fact that we sometimes do not see any change!
Can't believe that exactly one year ago, I was eagerly awaiting the arrival of my little one. And now she's all grown-up already! Time flies! 
At one year old, Janelle:-
- weighs 9.3kg and measures at about 72cm
- has 5 teeth (3 upper, 2 lower)
- has learnt to say "dada", "mama", "duck", "no", among her other baby words.
- has learnt to walk
At one day old, Janelle:-
- weighed 3.6kg and measured at 50cm
- had no teeth
- could only cry and not speak
- could not even flip
She has grown! 
Praise God!
ReplyDeletewow! indeed she is now a little gal, no longer a baby! Happy 1st Birthday to Janelle! :)
ReplyDeleteHey cool! Our babies are almost the same size at birth. Sammie was 3.77kg and also 50cm. Heh... Wonder if she'll also weigh about the same as Janelle when she turns 1.
