Our little baby girl is ONE! It's hard to wrap my mind around her being more a toddler than a baby but at the same time she's always been wanting to be a big girl and a fast learner. She stares and stares at the bigger kids at the playground as they run around and go down the zipline. She's not afraid to crawl after them and try to join in. For her birthday we played at the park until she was falling asleep in the swing. She went down the 15' high metal slide all by herself and giggled, she cried when we stopped taking her down the zipline and insisted on getting on the spinning thing with a bigger kid. She is brave, adventurous, and friendly but always after a moment of contemplation or curiosity. She has no fear but first watches others and then decides to head in. As she gets older you can see her wheels spin more and more and it's entrancing.
She got her own little cake decorated in dandelions, as she loves walking around the yard picking them. She was a little wary of the cake but once we put a finger full of frosing in her mouth she was into it. She ate at least 1/4 of it.
She opened presents from her amazing family, such as this rocking chair my grandpa made. She then rocked her stuffed animals in it. She read books, played with her new toys, and charmed us all.
And as a gift to us she decided she'd start walking on her birthday as well!
