Graycen's big day!

Cousin Graycen turns one! December 4 was the big day. Lots of fun going on! I didn't slow down all day long either. I put on a ton of steps. Everyone was tired just watching me!

Graycen loved her cake (especially the frosting)!

Hmmmm...which one should I start with. I'm a little overwhelmed!

What a great day! Gray Mae is all smiles:)

I found a ball to play with...surprise!

Xmas Tree Fun

Mom put up the Christmas tree and in no time it was pretty top heavy with ornaments! I really liked those shiny red and gold "balls"!

This ball looks yummy...

I love Weston kisses:)

My eye caught the muppets on TV and I was very intrigued. I'm not sure what these funny looking things are, but I like them. I really haven't watched any TV but these guys are neat!

Month 10 Highlights

Highlights of being 10 months old

• I'm walking full time! I finally got my confidence and I was gone...and I haven't slowed down since!
• With me walking, I now have a lot of bruises! I think I have had a permanent bruise on my forehead. One would go away and in no time, one more would appear. I'm pretty tough and it definitely doesn't slow me down for long.
• I was sick a few times this month (the most ever in my life--I know, it's only been 10 months). I had a really bad tummy (which turned into a really sore butt) for a good week that mommy even had to stay home with me. Then I got my first ear infection. That was not fun:( Mommy felt bad because she stopped nursing me this month so she felt that's why I got sick.
• First Thanksgiving!
• My favorite thing: WALKING and throwing balls. I have a pretty good arm and aim!
• National news: Oprah, queen of TV, announces leaving her talk show at the end of this season. President Obama accepts the Nobel Peace Prize.

Dolls, dolls, dolls!

Thanksgiving weekend, Gramma pulled out the dolls that mommy and Auntie Tina had when they were little. I had so much fun playing with them. Do you notice the "fake" Cabbage Patch Kid dolls? Gramma made those as well as a lot of the doll clothes! She is really talented!

This doll is almost as big as me!

Follow me Pappa! I'm walking everywhere these days!

Driving the Car

At Gramma and Pappa's house they have this really cool car! I love climbing in it and driving. I was having a really fun time!

Playing Transformers with my Cousins

At Thanksgiving (yes mom is really behind at blogging!), I got to play with my older cousins a lot. I thought it was pretty cool digging into the box of Transformers. But, probably not as much as Jaxon did. He was in heaven!

My older cousin, Bryce, even got in on the fun!

Keaton LOVES black olives!

"Turkey" dinner:)

I was a little tired at the end of the long day.

My first Thanksgiving was fun. Mom and I went back to Minot for the long weekend. We made it out to Aunt Doreen's in Plaza for the day. I wasn't a big fan of the turkey and mashed potatoes, but loved the stuffing!

Stroupers Fun!

Bath time is a lot of fun, especially when it's Big Ass Mug night! When mom was in college in Fargo, she went to a bar called Stroupers. You can get refills for only $1 in these mugs! Those were fun days, she says:) These pictures are dedicated to mom's best friends, Ami and Lisa. Cheers!
