The best year of my life...ONE YEAR OLD Nov 28

One year ago....BOY HAVE I GROWN! It's my birthday and I'll cry if I want to... Yeah, is this ridiculous? I had a delicious piece of cake in front of me to celebrate my first birthday and I didn't touch it. We spent Thanksgiving in St. James!! We celebrated Thanksgiving with all of the fam and then Gma & Gpa Becker got me a Thomas the train cake.
I opened up presents and got this cool walker from Cami & Ry-Dog. It took me about 30 seconds to figure out to how to rock and roll...I can't even tell you about all of the cool gifts!
Some fun pics.....me with Auntie Zoie and Ellie. They are HOOTS!
Zoie and Ellie complety exhasted me while I was there...soo much that I fell asleep holding maracas.
Gpa Becker - oh, man - boy did he cook up some delicious treats while I was there! I had oreos and cheetos thanks to him. And...don't tell my Mama but he gave me as many cheetos as I wanted. I call him "papa"
Me and Gma Lisa...she was trying to get me to go to the gym on Thanksgiving...YEAH RIGHT Gma!
I'm getting closer and closer to the walking thing........and, notice Ellie playing her DS upside down in the background? sheesh...
Gpa and Daddy headed out to the Mexican store in St. James and Daddy bought Ellie this mustache. Well, crazy auntil Ellie was wearing this outfit all night! Here is my love and joy - Zoester. I am not kidding, she did not leave my side the entire trip!
We came back this weekend and I had a chance to go out to lunch at my FAVORITE lunch place at Good Earth with Mom & her friends for my birthday. They didn't have any french fries or chicken nuggets which was not so cool. I had my 2nd birthday party at home last night with Gma & Gpa Sherck!! More pics to come...
I've been feeling a little under-the-weather the past couple days but I think I've turned the corner. I sure hope so, because tomorrow I get my 3rd birthday party at daycare. I have cupcakes sprinkled with mini m&ms and ready to go.

I'm starting to repeat some sounds. Instead of saying "thank you", I say "gank yoo." Know what I'm going to be when I grow up? Check out the video below...never know!!

T-Minus 6 days until I'm ONE YEAR OLD

Thinking back almost one year ago at this time, I was sitting in Mama's tummy all ready to shoot on out for my Birthday on Nov 28th! This has been the best year in my entire life. I am so thankful everyday for my family, health and the enormous amounts of LOVE that I have in my family. I've been a buzzzy little bee lately...but a quick update on what I've been up to!
Last weekend, it was awful and Dad came down with the icky FLU so he couldn't come with us but we met Gpa & Gma Becker, Zoie & Ellie at their hotel for swimming! Besides the big pool being a little chilly, it was a blast! Just like before, I LOVE THE WATER.
On Sunday, Daddy was still not feeling too well and Mom had to fly on an airplane to Michigan for work so, it was just awesome. I SKIPPED two days of daycare and had a chance to stay overnight at Gma & Gpa Shercks while Daddy was resting. Gpa read me books... I helped Gma sweep her magazines into the pot....
I slept through the night (both nights) and ate like a champ because Gma is the best cook around! Don't tell Mom, but Gma held me in her arms a lot which was awesome. So awesome that this past week I've been hanging on Mom's pant leg yelling "mama mama mama mama mama" because I want her to pick me up.
Dada is finally feeling better. This weekend, a quick salad and beer at Applebees Friday night, and Saturday Dad went pheasant hunting with his friend Jacob and we had he and his wife Kathleen over for dinner. That guy Jacob, what was he doing? He got out this umbrella thing, big lights, and a huge camera and he was chasing me all over the room taking pictures of me. Something about Christmas pictures???!?!? Nope, not sharing with anyone until Christmas arrives....I ended my weekend by watching the Vikes game with my main gal Jade. I wore my Vikes outfit and she wore her dress thing and was shakin' her bootie.
The latest thing for me, I'm almost walking (will walk around a coffee table and walk along the wall), I still have one tooth on the bottom and another one is poppin' through, I counted that yesterday I said the word "Mama" 4 million times, I love puzzles, I'm trying to feed myself with a fork/spoon, you can see in the pics that my hair is ALWAYS messy and I'm starting to get a curly mullet and I STILL DO NOT KNOW how to go down the stairs backwards on my tummy. Anyone have any suggestions?
Peace out. Heading to STJ for Thanksgiving and Bday party #1 and a 2nd round Bday party next Saturday. Cannot wait!!!

What does a cow say?

Well, what is new with me?

1. I'm a talking machine (surprise, surprise because my Mom never stops talking) I can't really say many words that people understand but the little kids at daycare understand me. In the morning when I wake up? Nope - I don't cry, I just sit and talk to my animals.

2. I have one tooth that popped through on the bottom. I love gnawing on anything to make them feel better. Can't wait to start biting the kids at daycare...ha, just kiddin'.

3. T-minus 19 days until I'm ONE YEAR OLD. No big birthday bash this year - but we are going to celebrate with gmas, gpas, aunts and family.

4. This past weekend was awesome. Spent Saturday biking with my parents at Baker Park and then we went to the bar for beer & popcorn. Saturday night was boyz night with me and my DADDIO - mom ditched us for girl's night and we had a blast. Dad and I chilled: we cleaned the garage, ate cheetos for dinner, and watched hockey. I love that guy.

5. I'm eating much more than I did the past few months. I think I'm finally going to start gettin' chunks legs.

6. I know how a cow, a dog and a duck talk. Ma tried to catch a video of me, buy my favorite what I normally do is "oooooooooooooooooooooo", which means "moo" but I always forget to do the "mmm" sound. I'm a little rascal, whenever Mom tries to take a video of me - I'll try to grab the camera from her hand! Dad was fishing on Sunday so we were playing trying to keep busy. Sure happy he's home from the Suriname Jungle!!! XOO
