My one year photo shoot

2008-05-18T23:01:24Z

I was finally able to get my one year pictures taken. Mommy was going to take me a few weeks ago, but I got a cold and had to wait until I got better. Here are the proofs:

Don't worry Grammie, Aunt Terri, Aunt Heather and Uncle Mike, I made Mommy buy some prints for you, so you will be getting those soon!

What I got my mom

2008-05-15T18:17:12Z

Here are some pics of what I got my mommy for Mother's Day:

It is a locket for her to put pictures in. I am getting my one year pictures done today (finally) and she is going to choose what picture to put in it. The other side will be for my little sister when she is born!

My one year check-up

2008-05-01T23:34:19Z

As usual, I am off the charts:
Weight: 27 pounds 8 oz (the average weight of an 18-21 month old)
Height: 33 inches (the average length of a 24 month old)
Head: 47 centimeters (75th percentile)
No wonder I am already wearing size 18 month clothing and I can fit in some 24 month/2T stuff (depends on who makes it!).

This follows along with my previous checkups, but I am off the charts as usual. I am building myself up so I can pick on my new little sibling.

I only got one shot because I am sick and mommy wanted to wait for the other two so we go back in 30 days.

Highlights from my birthday

2008-04-30T15:59:34Z

We had my birthday party on Saturday. We had lots of fun. Here are some pictures of me opening my presents:

I didn't really like my birthday cake, so I just played with it. It is fun to finger paint with it:

There are more pictures in my photo album. Check them out!

I AM 1 TODAY!

2008-04-24T13:13:45Z

I can't believe that I am already one year old. Actually, I turned 1 at 3:01 am this morning, but mommy wasn't about to get up and do a post then! Here are some pics of me today:

My party is on Saturday, so I will post more pictures then!

Outside funtime

2008-04-23T13:37:04Z

My neighbor's grandkids outgrew their swingset, so they were generous and gave it to me. I am still unsure of the slide, and most of the time I would rather be eating dirt, grass and leaves than swing, but my mommy and daddy put me in it everyday and say "Weeee". I am sure that someday it will be lots of fun:

The weather has been so nice....

that we went to the park. Here are some highlights from last weekend:

Hanging with my friend Colin

2008-04-14T18:12:38Z

This weekend I went to Colin's house. We had fun playing with his toys. He showed me how to climb up furniture...a trick I will have to learn. We also had dinner together. I got to have pizza and applesauce. Here are some pics of our playdate:

Just some more cute pics of me

2008-04-11T02:04:08Z

Here I am smiling for the camera and what my parents like to call my old man grin:

In this one I am playing with my train and the other two I am walking to grab that camera out of daddy's hands:

I am the strongest little man

I love to pick up toys and put them on the couch or throw them over the gate. Here is a video of me picking up the Vtech ball, carrying it to the gate, and tossing it over. It isn't that light...you can tell by the bang it makes when it lands on the floor:

Make sure you watch all the way to the end so you can see my new trick also!

Another pasta adventure!

2008-04-05T12:42:29Z

So as I have stated before, I LOVE PASTA! Here are some pics of me devouring some ravioli:

My debut

2008-04-01T17:15:33Z

I forgot to mention that my Mommy entered me in a Parenting Magazine cover contest and I won! Here is my cover that will be out next month:

APRIL FOOL'S!

I carry my toys in my mouth

2008-04-01T14:18:35Z

I like to chew on things right now, ya know with the teething and all. So I tend to carry toys around with me in my mouth so I can chew on them any time. Here is a demonstration:

In this last one, I had to drop it so I could smile for the camera!

Grocery Shopping

2008-03-29T12:53:12Z

So, Mommy, Daddy and I like to all go grocery shopping together. Mommy shops, while Daddy and I hang out. I usually sit in the cart, but since I have been walking, I really want out. On Friday, Daddy took me out and let me walk around. Well, I discovered that I could push the grocery cart. (It was full by the way). One lady commented on how cute it was that I was learning how to walk, then, she heard me grunt (like those body builders when they pick up weights) and I started to move the cart. Her reaction was "That's scary".... Before you know it, I will be tackling Daddy!

Sorry about the poor picture quality, Daddy took the pictures with his phone!

Nibbler still doesn't get it

2008-03-27T17:56:19Z

Nibbler doesn't understand that eveytime I get near him, I am going to pull his tail. Here is a demonstration:

I also discovered that I love to eat plums:
