The shirt says it all..she was still so tiny.

We saw our first big snow here in Texas.

Started cloth diapering.

Went to our first friend birthday party.

March

Our first plane ride to Oklahoma.

Playing at the mall, still sucking our thumb and a pacifier.

I 'thought' she couldn't hold a bottle on her own...I was wrong! Needless to say I didn't hold to many bottles after I saw this!

June

Tubes in both ears.

July

Spent many afternoon at the spray parks. Still not walking at this point so there were also a lot of scuffed knees from crawling at the parks.

Trip to Bonkers.

Swim lessons

Fun with friends at the Children's Museum.

Spent the 4th of July at the lake with Nana and Pops.

Relaxing in the hot tub.

Pictures taken in Granny's backyard.

Finally at 15 1/2 months you decided to start walking. There were still times that you chose not to, but for the most part you found it faster and a lot less rough on your knees.

September

Plano Balloon Festival

October

The skunk and the flamingo. We went through what I call a 'pacifier detox' in October to be ready for a new daycare that did not allow pacifiers. You did great...in the 5 day process you were done with them on day two.

November

Growing up....

Always wanting outside.

December

Our year has been amazing. We've gone from eating pureed foods to eating solids, crawling to walking, pointing to saying 30+ words, sweet and innocent to 'mine', pulling hair, hitting, and even biting, crying to throwing tantrums...ahh...the terrible twos have already begun.

I love you Astoria!!!
