I'm 1 year old! Yeah for my birthday party!!

Well the big day is here, I'm a whole 1 year old! Woohoo...mommy and daddy we can celebrate!

Well I had a bunch of people come to see my on my birthday. Mommy's family came and Daddy's family came...we had friends from all over. Aunt Liz even got me birthday cupcakes!

Mommy went all out buying me decorations to celebrate! There were sooooo cool! ...right Grandma Susu? They were up all over Gran's house and it was awesome!

Thanks for having my birthday party at your house, Gran! It was a really special day and it meant a lot to me that you would host all my family and friends to celebrate. Yeah you!

And not only did Gran have my birthday at her house with both my grandmoms and grandads there, she gave this very special chair that goes waaaaaay back. I'm a year old, and daddy said the chair is like a 100 times as old as me. I don't really know how old that is, but it must be a lot.

I got some new things too! One of my favorite books is my truck book that Aunt Nancy gave me. Soooo cooooool....I love trucks!

And grandmom gave me a brand new slide. It rocks!!! Daddy showed me how I could slide down it and I can't wait to get it back home so I can play on it.

I had a blast on my birthday! Everyone was so nice and gave me so many presents!!

Thanks mommy and daddy for throwing me my party...and thanks to everyone for coming! I hope you got some birthday cupcakes cuz there were really really good!

Gettin ready for my birthday

Well I'm not sure what all the fuss is about yet, but mommy and daddy seem real excited. They keep going on and on about how my first birthday is so special and how they survived a whole year...not sure what that means. But, they also tell me they love me a whole whole lot and that part's really cool. So some things came in the mail the other day and daddy said I was going to open a couple of packages as practice before my real birthday. He's so funny, but pulling apart paper sure is fun! Mommy and I got to Grandma's in time to celebrate my birthday on my birthday and hang out before the big party. Grandma said I may make a great piano player on day but I should stick to using my hands for things like opening birthday presents until I got a little bigger. Thanks for sharing my actual birthday with me Grandma!

Happy Valentine's Day Mommy!

Happy Valentine's Day mommy! I know Daddy said this was one of few days of the year when you were his first and mine second, but I'm too cute for silly rules like that. You'll be my valentine won't you? I love you and I'm super cute!

11 Months

So my new trick at 11 months old is knowing what button on the cable box turns the tv on and off. Look at me go!!! Mommy keeps telling me to stay little....i really do try to stay small but I keep growing and doing all these really cool things......I just think her arms are getting tired because I am getting heavier!

Hanging Around

It is winter time and Mommy and Daddy and I do some major hanging out around the house. This picture was when we got 8 inches of snow in like 6 hours....Daddy got to come home early and play with mommy and I......that is who I am looking at in this picture.

I was playing ball which mommy says that when I say ball it seems very southern. Anyway I had to take a time out to love my kitty Meela! Mommy says I have to be gentle so I just put my head on her to show her my love.

So this is a big moment below. I am having my first taste of Port Wine Cheese and cracker. Daddy loves this stuff and he says my Grandpa George does too. I thought it was yummy in my tummy as well.

Catch me if you can!!!

So BIG news tonight......I decided that I was going to walk before I turned 11 months.....ok so it is by days but still a big deal well at least according to mommy and daddy. Daddy got this really short video of one of my first real go at it. I have to brag that I did walk over 6 feet all by myself because I wanted too. Mommy and Daddy are in TROUBLE!!! They also wanted me to tell everyone that they would work on getting a better video this weekend when they weren't so amazed with what was happening.

Pushing my buggy!

Look at me go!!! The other day I took two steps all by myself towards dadddy!!
