YEAH! I'm 1!

Our sweet little girl is 1! We had a great time yesterday. We wish we could have come back to IL to celebrate or had our family come here. We missed the rest of the family there. Here's a few pics from the day:

You say it's almost my birthday?


Can you see my two front teeth coming in FINALLY? Just in time for my birthday


The morning of my birthday, ready to party!


Me in my ladybug dress


Me and all my pals. I'm the only girl and I've got many boyfriends


My birthday ladybug cupcakes mommy made


Mom, Pops, and me



I love getting sung to! I'm ready to dig in!


Mmmm tasty!


Ugh....I'm stuffed


Bed?! Pfffftt I've had too much sugar


Hanging out with Ammachi before she left the next morning


Daddy, this is shoddy workmanship, let me take a look.


No more pictures!!!!


Thanks for all the cards and presents! I had a great birthday!

11 months and some change...

Yeah...mom's been slacking.

We had a nice Christmas where she got to see a lot of her family that she doesn't get to very often.

The big girl is now walking!! Here's a few pics of what we've been up to lately:

No more getting to hold the sign. I just like to stuff it in my mouth and rip it to shreds!


It's almost time for Christmas you say?


Touchdown!! Too bad the Bears couldn't deliver more of those.


Here's hoping I don't have mom's eyesight.

So what if I'm sitting in my toy basket. What's it to ya!?

Who the hell is this guy!?! I ain't sitting his lap!

I'm still not too sure about this guy...

Spending some time outside while you IL folk are stuck in sub-zero temps!

What the heck is this stuff I'm crawling on?

Coca...coca-cabana....


Look like a polar bear, feel like a polar bear. Maybe then these cold temps will be bearable.

Hanging out with Aunt Cindy and Sean on X-mas Eve.

Dad trying out one of my X-mas presents. I'm thinking it's a little bit small, Dad.


Stop gabbing dad and open this open for me!!

Is this how I came into the world?

Let's get this thing going!

Playing cars with Owen, the ones he'd share with me and not Eli. HA!

Hanging out with my cousins before heading back to AZ. Eli was getting ready to go in for the kill.

I'm just gonna lay here while I gather up some more energy to drive mom and dad crazy.

Doing my best Gene Simmons impression. All I'm missing is the face makeup and leather.

Yes, I can be an angel...sometimes.

I love being upside down

Someone got into mom and dad's liquor cabinet.

See you next month!
