I'm walking!!

Here is a photo of Danielle walking. She took her first step on Thanksgiving and now she walks across the room! She's still a bit wobbly but that makes it so adorable.

Our Christmas Tree Hunt

Last weekend we hunted for our Christmas tree. It was very cold so we bundled up and finally did find one. There wasn't much snow but just enough so we could take a wintery picture. Danielle was a real trooper.

Being One is Fun

I thought you should know all the things I like about being one year old...so here goes! First of all, Mommy decided she wanted my hair out of my eyes so I got my first haircut. It wasn't too scary. I got to eat animal crackers and look in the mirror. I hardly noticed that a strange lady was using a sharp object near my face! Of course we saved a bit of my hair in an envelope and took a photo. Now that I am one my dog, Duke, seems to tolerate me a lot more. I love to give him hugs and he doesn't seem to mind. He's not sure if he likes me sitting on top of him or not...we're still working that out. I have learned a little more sign language so now I can tell Mommy & Daddy when I want a drink, cracker, cheese, or banana. Usually it's "cracker" or "cheese" those are my two favorites. These days I take a step once in awhile but I don't walk. I like to sit like a big kid on anything Mommy & Daddy will let me sit on. There is one chair at Grammie & Grandpa's house that is short enough for me to get into. I love climbing in and then sitting there so proud of myself. Well, that's about all for now. I'll keep you posted on any new accomplishments!
