Our beautiful baby girl is a year old!! I can not believe she is no longer an infant and now in the toddler years. "We don't have a baby anymore" as Jason so thoughtfully informed me this morning. Libby has done so much in her first year! She is a speed crawler and explorer which keeps Jason and I on our toes. She still loves to watch the dogs, and they are constantly making her laugh and smile even though they both would rather be left alone. She only takes a bottle at bedtime and drinks from a straw cup with ease. Her favorite word (and really only word associated with something/someone) is "Dada". She can do all of the actions to Pat-A-Cake and also really likes If You're Happy and You Know It. She loves to lean in and let you give her "kisses" and "snuggles". It is amazing me all she can do and how far she has come from the little bundle we brought home a year ago.
This weekend has been so much fun for our little one year old. On Thursday we ended her first year with a trip to the zoo. She loves animals and had a big grin on her face for the whole zoo trip... even up until she passed out.
Then on Friday she opened her walker gift that Jason and I got her. Plus that night at her uncle Travis' she stood up for the first time without holding onto anything.
To finish the great weekend off she had her Birthday Party. She loved her gifts unless I tried to take them away. Plus of course her smash cake was a fun experience.
