The Big NUMBER ONE

Today's my offical birthday, and I celebrated by cutting two molars and learning how to stand up all by my bad self when sitting in the middle of the floor. Hoooorrrrrrayyyyyyyyy!!!!!!

Playing Mommy

First I played with my baby doll, then August was handy, so...

My Birthday Party

Chatterbox

No pictures for now, just words. Yep, I'm talking. I can say 'dog,' 'ball,' 'go,' 'mama,' 'book,' and even a two syllable word, 'kitty.' These words I use regularly, identifying the object with a gesture and a distinguishable label. It's a toss up what my first real word was, since I started using all these at once. A few weeks ago I said 'mamen' every time we prayed but I've given that up and now I just laugh when they end the prayer. Oh, and yesterday I walked over to the fridge and, lovingly stroking the door, I said 'milk.' They keep telling me to say please and thank you, but I return blank stares and point violently to what I want, until I usually (and I do say usually) get it.

My Doo

Every baby has to have at least one mohawk after a bath...

My Pals

Over Christmas, August and I got together with our pals, Emma and Bea, and had a grand old time.

Go Zags!

We went to a ladies Gonzaga basketball game, and I had a blast. I see that court in my future...

Go Hawks!

In my first year of life I've become a huge Seahawks fan, so it's pretty cool they are having their best season since the year my dad was born.

In the Spirit of Christmas

I suppose I will have to forgive August.

Hi There

Snow Bunny

I'm trying on my snowsuit, but I haven't had a chance to go out and play quite yet. I had a double ear infection before Thanksgiving, and then another one right afterwards, so mommy doesn't want to take me outside in the 25 degree weather until I am ALL ALL better. Then we are going to the woods to cut down our Christmas tree. I am so excited.
