I'm Walkin' Everywhere!

Somebody PLEASE push me!!! I got a new dump truck for Christmas! I like to be pushed around on it.....

and I like to push others around as well!

Poor Cowboy! She doesn't really care for my new dump truck.

I also love to color with my new crayons. That's what I've been up to lately!

We went to the Park Today!

Mommy's vacation is almost over and then it's back to work, but we had one last play date this week. Daddy took us to the park to play.

I loved the slide with Daddy.

Here we are going down the BIG slide.

I had lots of fun exploring.

..but, I wasn't too sure about the swing??? Maybe next time Mommy says!

Frugos???

So... as some of you know, my Daddy is addicted to Frugos (that's a frozen yogurt place here in town). When my Daddy says "You know what sounds good?" that means we're going to Frugos...usually in my PJ's. Aren't I cute in my PJ's and Elmo slippers?

OK! Enough pictures...let's go. Yep...that's me walking!

So...while Mommy was trying to sew today, I was busy stealing fabric and dragging it around the house. Baby Linus????

Yep! That's me walking again.

This is how I get out of my new ball pit! I slide right out!

Baily likes my new ball pit too. I like to hide her toys in it.

Happy Birthday Maddox!

My friend Maddox turned one a few days ago so we helped him celebrate his birthday!

I love my car...so we thought Maddox should have one too! This car cures the fussies!

Maddox and I play together.

I wanted him to taste my snack!

I'm One Year Old!

So many good things have happened over the last three weeks! First, we had a great Christmas. We enjoyed visiting with our family and friends. I also had a great first birthday! Yep...I'm finally ONE! I can do so many things now too. I'm almost walking. I can take five to six steps all on my own. I practice every chance I get. Also, I think I'm finally getting a few more teeth...because I've been kind of moody lately (who could blame me???). And guess what??? NO more formula for me! I'm on to regular milk now. Here I am on my birthday (also known as Christmas Day) eating a Happy Birthday cupcake my aunt Deena brought me.

No more formula for me!!!

Here I am playing with my Little People farm

I got a new wagon for Christmas...and refused to get out of it, so I open the rest of my presents in the wagon.

My famous frowny face.

Notice my new toy! Daddy loves it too.

All aboard!!!!

Grandma Cindy put snazzy new slippers in my stocking!

One of my favorite past times is playing with all of my fridge magnets.

Here we are at Build a Bear...but we built a dog instead...go figure???

All done at Build a Dog!

I love to play Peek a Boo with Bailey!

Ryan's First Birthday

Daddy and Ryan in the jumper!

We celebrated Ryan's first birthday this past weekend! Wow, were we exhausted after all was said and done. Ryan was great the entire day and handled all the chaos quite well. Thank you to all our friends and family who made the party and we missed those of you who were not able to make it. We can hardly believe a year has almost passed. It seems like just yesterday we were trying to conceive, yet here we are with our beautiful baby boy who brings so much love and laughter to our lives. Though he won't actually turn a year until Christmas day, I've already begun thinking of what new and exciting journeys his second year will bring. I can hardly wait!

Ryan loved all his gifts. He hasn't stopped playing since he open them all.

More presents!

He really liked the wrapping paper.

Time for cake! Ryan wasn't quite sure what to do with it though.

.....but after a little prompting from mom.....

it was alllll over!

Time for a bath. Don't you love the cake face?

Just a silly boy!

After the party was over..... cousin Jennah pushed the birthday boy in his new car.

Hey Toots....keep pushing! :)

Jennah and Ryan with our new dog.

And at the end of a very long day....... we relaxed in a bath together.

Ryan's First Thanksgiving

We hope evryone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We visited my cousins, my aunt and uncles, and Grandma and Papa. Here we are(Mommy, Daddy, me and Uncle Gary) all dressed up ready to eat turkey.

Mommy loves the look on my face. We were just about ready to eat Thanksgiving dinner. I ate turkey, mashed potatoes, green beans, and even stuffing.

See my new cowboy boots. These were actually my cousin Steven's when he was little (now he's 14.....a big boy). His mommy decided it was time to pass them on to me. Mommy had to try them on me when we got home (so what if they're as big as my whole leg! Mommy says I'll grow into them).
