1st Birthday!

I just celebrated my first Birthday!! I turned 1 years old on January 14th.  I had a very special day because Daddy stayed home from work to be with me. He took me all over town, we went swimming and we went on a long stroller ride and played and picked out books at the book store. I love him SO much! And the next day we had a party and ate cupcakes! Lots of Mommy and Daddy's pals came over and of course Aunt Lindsay and Uncle Dylan and my Nana. Aunt Lindsay knitted me a hat - she had never knitted anything before so we are all very impressed! Also I got a year membership to the ZOO from my Aunt Mollie and Aunt Bonnie and Aunt Lindsay and Uncle Dylan. That is the best present ever because the animals really like it when I visit them. Daddy got me a fish tank so I can have my very own fish! I hope he takes good care of them for me! Back to my party - I was a little overwhelmed when I sat in my seat and all these people were staring at me so I started to cry. But soon I felt better and tried my cupcake. It was OK, I liked the fresh fruit more. Maybe next year I will be more interested in my cake. After the spot light was off me I had much more fun just hanging out and playing the rest of the day.

Christmas Holiday

Wow! it has been so long since Mommy has had time to post! So much has changed since last time....I moved to a new home, Aunt Bonnie visited for a few weeks, Yaya & Beeba came for a long time and took care of me every day, Aunt Lindsay made me a stocking for my first Christmas and on Christmas day I got so many presents that I am very grateful for. I am starting to test my skills at walking. I am very good with the walkers, and by myself I can stand for a very long time keeping my balance. Mostly I just take one step sometimes two, and then I fall over :). I am an expert at climbing the stairs and Nana helped me learn how to climb down them safely. I say "Hi" and "No" on a regular basis but I am still learning "Mommy" and "Daddy". I really like our new house. I dont even remember the old one anymore. I had avery special first Christmas because I got to spend it with all my family who I love very much.
