As you all know, I just recently celebrated my 1st birthday. I have been extremely "busy" lately growing, walking behind my lion(pretty soon I'm not going to need him to hold onto), trying new foods, swimming in my pool, and learning new words. Just yesterday I tried whole milk for the first time!! I thought it tasted alright--maybe I'll enjoy it more after a couple days. Still nursing 2 times a day but, my days of nursing are numbered, Mom says.
I had my one year checkup yesterday and the doctor was very impressed with how much I've grown since she saw me at 9 months. I now weigh a whopping 20lbs. 1oz. with puts me in the 34th percentile(3 months ago I was in the 12th). I am 29 inches long with puts me in the 48th percentile for my height(3 months ago I was in the 30th).
Yesterday after supper, Daddy and I were racing in the basement... he was crawling and I was walking/running behind my lion. We both laughed until we had tears in our eyes. Mommy was working on some crafts but, she stopped and came to watch us when she heard the roaring laughter. I definitely beat Daddy in the race. Before bed I gave Daddy many kisseys which he said "completely melted his heart." Normally, I'll give Mommy lots of kisseys but, Daddy's beard is pokey so he gets very few. Here are some photos we took this week.

Sooo big birthday girl!!
Yay- I love celebrating!! Mommy having that camera in my face is another story though!!:)
Lunchtime!! I'm so quick around the house that Mom's having trouble getting pictures of me....unless I'm strapped in my highchair with nowhere to go!! 
My very own cake!
After my afternoon nap, we all went to the city pool. I love swimming and crawling around in the kids area! Next time I promise we'll remember the camera!
No time to pose Mom-- I need to hurry and eat my snack so we can get to the pool!! Sure seems like a ate a lot on my big day huh....
Let's go!! No time to waste!!
Look out!!
This lion is helping me learn to walk/run- I'm just about ready to take off on my own though.
Yes, most waking minutes are now spent with this lion!! Mom and Dad don't mind helping me turn him around when I get to a wall. If they don't notice me waiting--I kindly ram the lion into the wall a few times until they come to help. I guess I'm communicating more too!!:)
I know not to play Daddy's guitar when he's home but, I still sneak in there when Mom's busy making lunch.
Here's Daddy and I racing in the basement!! I have never laughed so hard in all my one year of life!!
This lion was a Christmas gift from Grandma and Grandpa Scholand- I absolutely love it!!Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes, cards and gifts; it means so much that you were thinking of me!! I am truly blessed.
