My 1st year picture

Hey look at me! I'm 1!
Being sweet in my dress and hat

pretty flower

Happy Birthday to me!

I'm 1! I can drink from a sippy cup all by myself!
and share food with my brother, like blueberries
and cruise around furniture
and stand by myself for 10 or so seconds before I panic. I LOVE to play tee-ball. I put the ball on the tee and insist on using the bat to hit it "all y myself". Actually I'm getting pretty good at it!

Posing in mama's handiwork

Proof I really do smile....just only when I feel like it. This is the dress and hat mama made me for my birthday. I was eating blueberries, back at my familar home, in cooler clothing and generally feeling happy. Enjoy the pics!







Grammy's birthday outing


Grammy's birthday is one day after mine, so we took her out to celebrate.

Daddy entertaining me with a straw since I was pitching a ROYAL fit for my mother and causing a scene
playing with my raisin container. Mama ordered me oatmeal with raisins and she was so nice as to add a pinch of brown sugar. I still pretended like I didn't ever smile
yippee! A ride on a shuttle! I didn't like it when it was on, but I thought it was a riot to steer it and sit in it

SO I slept alot in the ergo but we walked around the weirs and I got some presents from the grands and my folks and it was a nice day. Even if mama did practically dress us for winter in the 80 degree weather ;)

Birthday madness

After the first attempt at presents (I was a little overwhelmed by the crowd) I try again.
Lexi watches me open presents from her fam
hair clips, AWESOME!I made sure mama put one right one me
actually, two would be even better. Thanks Lexi! (they also got me adorable clothes, but no pics of that, sorry)
ohhh and Grammie got me bows. I also needed to try that on. I'm such a girly girl. (and when I opened the shoes gram bought me I said, OOOOOHHHH and grabbed them, hee)
another dress and matching hat from mom. I was...thrilled...more pics later of me modeling it.
sweet, the grands got me a pool. bring on summer

Birthday madness part 2

My auntie Julie gave me head bands. I really like them...
I especially like to wear them all at once
and take them off and put them back on, good times
one of the hats mama made me (clearly I am thrilled beyond words)
outdoors enjoying an evening ride in the cool NH air (notice I am still pretending I don' know how to smile, and that I have a chunk of baby carrot in my cheek)
I held on to Hannah's knee when it got bumpy
Lexi is so strong she can pull us
being cute

I love the playground

Riding the firetruck, woo hooI really like the playground, here I am...
Peek a boo!
I love the music bars, woo hoo
I can see you!

Having fun with my best brother
I love the merry go round, and yes it is spinning, I think it rocks!
woo hoo
(mama's note, this scares me quite a bit, but she loves it. At one point I thought, if she falls off because I am taking a picture I am going to have mother guilt forever, and also digital evidence of my parenting blunder. But she held on tight and it was going slowish, so all is well. Trying not to raise wussy kids is hard when you are a wuss yourself ;) )
