Year: 2009

I had my first run with finger paints today. I was very apprehensive at first and then I dove right in.

I did think painting with my feet was pretty neat.

It was a bit slippery. Mommy was there to catch me if I fell.

Drawing #2. Very cool! 🙂 I am really into making this mess now.

I need more paint.

Okay, MORE! Not sure how I got it all over my tummy and face, but I did!

Completely immersed in my work.

My mess is spreading. Lucky Mommy is patient with the mess as long as she is clean.

me, not so clean!?

Mommy, NOW not so clean! I love to hug!

Okay, Mommy is very messy!

So is the kitchen! 🙂

What a fun time! 🙂

So, with my nice case of stomach flu, guess what my behavior is?  Play play play… come over to snuggle… and go *blech*.  I don’t go *blech* while playing.  I come over and ask for a snuggle and place my cute little head on your chest and then after 5-10 seconds make you change your clothes!

 

Gotta love me!

We had my birthday party a bit early this year because Grandma Susie and Great Grandma Barbara were down from Ohio for a few weeks.

Great Granny was a pleasure to have around. Even if she got sick over Christmas, it was still wonderful to have her visit.

I loved my time with Grandma Susie. She is fun to play with, when B is not trying to be the center of attention!

I am walking all over and extremely mobile now!

Here is the neat cake that Daddy made me! E!

YUMMY looking!

Pretty good Daddy!

Eating in the backyard to keep things clean.

Not me though! I like getting messy.

Yup, messy is my middle name!

Hanging in the backyard while I ate my cake.

Big Brother being silly as usual!

Mmmmmmm, frosting!

Bathtime!

I like the bathtub. I like to turn it blue.

So cute! Almost one! 🙂

B helped me open all my gifts!

He does a great job helping me out.

Ohhhhh a SWIM DIAPER! hehe

Something for my bed to sing to me at night! 🙂

So happy to be almost 1!!!!

We went to Dinosaur world with Cousin Wendy, Nick and Spencer.

I enjoyed my ride in the stroller for a while when the big kids ran.

But I really wanted to be out playing.

So happy to be me! 🙂 I am the happiest kid during daylight but once the sun goes down I still have problems dealing with sleep.

Let me down. I want to play with the big kids in the sand.

PLEASE let me down?

Thanks Mom for the rescue! 🙂

What a beautiful day!

Holding true to my cranky form I fired out tooth #4 last night. Mommy is hurting from me being up every hour all night long but I am feeling a BIT less cranky.
