New York

On July 7th my mommy and me, and Abby all went to NY for a few days.  Unfortunately mommy and I were sick the whole time we were up there with bad colds :(  We even stayed an extra day because mommy was really not feeling well.  We had a great time though and it was great to see my mommy's family.  I got to swim in the big pool, play with my cousins and crawl up and down the two steps at my grandparents house :)

This past Saturday mommy and daddy took me to the beach where I got to play in the sand and have fun for the first time!  At first when I got sand on my hand I cried but then I got over it and played with my little shovel and rake.  Today mommy took me to the beach again with Miss Jodi and her family and we had lots of fun!

This Friday my mommy's side of the family will be coming to visit for my big birthday.  I can't believe I will be one year old on Friday!!  Tomorrow we are going to get pictures taken and Wednesday my new swing set will be here.  This is a busy week and I am super excited.  I am still not fully walking yet but I just like to hang on mommy and daddy's hand.

Happy 4th of July!!

Hi everyone!  I hope you all had a wonderful Independence Day!  Daddy, Mommy, and I went to great Uncle Curt's house for a bbq.  I got to meet even more of my Daddy's family :)  Aunt Betty and Uncle Jim came all the way up from NC, and I also met some of my Dad's cousins.  After the party I slept the whole way home and then mommy and I went to Miss Jodi's and swam in the pool.  Mr. Joe let off some fireworks for me while it was still light out and I thought they were really funny :)  I couldn't stay up to watch the real fireworks though because I was too tired :(
I have a little bit of a cold so mommy took me to the Dr. yesterday and I weigh 21lbs. 15oz..  Dr. said I can start on real milk when my formula is gone so mommy and daddy are happy about that :)  I am walking a little bit more each day and saying a WHOLE bunch of new words!

"Hi", "Hey", "Lets Go!", "Cool", "Mommy", "Daddy", "Sit", "Da-da". "Shoes", "Ma-ma", "Ella"

I skinned my knee crawling on the hardwood floor so mommy bandaged them up!
