I still have plenty more to post!

Well, I got a lot posted today, but there are still 3 more parties worth of pictures... so there's plenty more to look forward to! I bet you just can't wait! :)

A Work in Progress

I've still got a long way to go... but here's what it looks like right now:

I always take pictures of each stage incase I mess it up, so I will post those pictures too as they come, maybe that will keep me motivated, I always reach a certain point that I have a hard time passing, I like the unfinished look and it's really hard forme to move beyond that.

Balloons

This girl just loves her balloons! All weekend long she just walked around the house carrying her balloons! Nothing could make her happier! She points to them and says ball! I love it! It's too cute!

Birthday Party #1 The Co Family

We went and picked up some balloons before the party. Ayz is completely fascinated with the balloons, she calls them balls.

My family came over Friday night to celebrate her birthday with us. She got a lot of really cool toys and some much needed outfits! She totally got spoiled!

She was afraid of the candle on the cake.

This is her only cousin on my side Lit. Lit thought she was Willy Nelson that night! She's such a cute girl and so FUNNY!

Ayz LOVES to read books, I have so many pictures of her just reading books I should post them one day.

Uncle Curty gave her this Care Bear... rarrr!

Lunch with the Cousins

These are Ayz cousin's they were in town so we did lunch with them on Friday! Ayz had so much fun playing with her cousins! She really loves those guys!
Kar is really good to her, he always likes to give her loves.
TyD always loves to see her walk.

...but little Eliza is always SUPER excited to see her cousin Ayz! She hugs her and kisses her and tackles her! It's hillarious! Ayz doesn't mind either, she loves her cousin Eliza too!

These two are almost exactly two months apart is all!

That little Eliza's smile is so contagious! She is always smiling and happy!

Silly Pictures

Those Kodak Moments are Always Blurry!

Dellie's friend Murphy brought her a present the next day. It was actually HIS birthday, he is a year minus a day older than her.

Too Cold for the Zoo... Let's go to Cabela's!

Since Ayz loves animals so much I wanted to take her to the zoo for her birthday, but it was just too cold so we took her to Cabela's instead to see all of the animals.

She loved the fish!

She loved the animals...she's even growling at all of these animals right now! What a goofball!

There's a bear behind them in this picture... kind of hard to see.
She was so excited she was running and pointing to everything. I think it was a happy day for her!

Happy 1st Birthday!!!

This is what we did on Ayz actual birthday day...

Poor unsuspecting little girl... didn't have any idea that those nice ladies were about to give her 5 shots!!! 3 in one leg and 2 in the other! We went to the doctor for her one year check up in the morning. Everything went really well. She weights almost 19 lbs (which puts her in the 20th percentile) and she is almost 2 1/2 feet tall (the 75 percentile). That just makes me laugh! She is a tall one!
After the nurses gave her her shots she gave them the saddest look like 'why did you just do that to me?' But the rest of the day she was really good and the shots didn't seem to bother her.


She is so funny to me! She thinks she's a puppy dog and her mouth is just another way to carry things. She's always carrying something in her mouth!

My little TODDLER can now ride in a forward facing carseat! We went to the grocery store and I bought her this balloon... balloons are one of her very favorite things in the world. That just made her day. So then we drove down to Lehi to pick up Daddy from work and headed over to Cabela's. Look at how happy she was when she first saw her daddy!
