Firsts: First Ponytail (see above pic), First Taste of Cake (see pics),
First Tooth (the week before her birthday), First Blizzard, First Valentine's Day
Macey is still crawling more than walking, but she's getting braver--often trying 4 or 5 steps at a time.
She's does LOTS of exploring... including tasting dirt from my plants, cleaning out my kitchen cupboards on a regular basis, messing up her sister's room, climbing into her brother's dresser drawer (with a bit of help), and playing & splashing in the bathtub. 
Did I mention that she's becoming more vocal? We like to call the above situation a "Macey Fit". She can be quite persistent when she's not getting something that she wants. As for all the other times, she's very content--constantly chattering away! She loves to imitate things that her brother and sister say/do. She's saying several words and also signing a few.
Macey switches between 1 and 2 naps per day (usually depending on our schedule). She often sleeps in until 9 (when she can) and takes 3-4 hour naps (love that about her!) I wanted to nurse her awhile longer, but it was enough or a struggle to make it to a year (before we started milk). She started refusing to nurse about 3 weeks before her birthday. She very occasionally nurses before bedtime but she's basically done.
Her stats: Weight--18 lbs. 12 oz. (11%) Height--27.25 inches (6%)
(Her doctor was very excited about this because at our last visit she wasn't on the charts at all!)
