My First Birthday Party

I had such a great birthday! I have learned so much in the past year. Gramma and Grampa Lepard came to visit and so did Aunt Hannah, Uncle Craig and Greta. I got to hang out with Uncle Brad and Aunt Kristin too. We went to the Nature Center and saw wild turkeys, lots of birds (I love birds), an owl, and of course some hungry squirrels. We came back to the house and openned presents and ate birthday cake. The candles were really neat, but I am not so sure about the frosting though. It's kinda sticky in my fingers. The presents were fun to unwrap too. I got some cool new stuff. You should come play with me sometime.




I have learned so much this past year. I am crawling all over the place, wishing I could walk on my own. I love to walk around holding onto Mom or Dad. I can walk behind my red wagon outside pretty well. I guess when the weather wams up, I will get even more practice. I know a little bit of sign language and can sign "please" and "more" and "play". I can say "Dada" and "Hi". I am still working a little on "Mommy." I love to be silly and to have my parents chase me, to play ball with them, wrestle with Lucy and watch them play catch with Lucy. My cousin, Greta, and I can make each other laugh. And of course, I just love music! I play a mean harmonica and whistle. You should see the dance moves I have to the radio. I am a real dancing machine.
