Walking and Talking
You are still not walking yet but you seem to be walking while holding on to something a lot more. You can stand by yourself for hours but when we try to hoax you to walk, you just fall and crawl. You are also trying to talk a lot more. We still do not understand what you are saying but you sure can carry on a good conversation. You know what things are really well. You know your cup, baby,toys, papa, mommy, daddy, grams, books, monkey, puffs, computer, phone, and many more.
Sleeping
Well for about the last week you will have nothing to do with your crib. Whenever daddy or mommy tries to put you to sleep at night you just cry and cry. We eventually go and get you and then you are fine and stay up with us. You have been sleeping with us and it is very difficult. We have never really slept together before so its hard for mommy. She is afraid she is going to roll on top of you. You seem to sleep fine during the day when you take naps but you don't like it at night. Hopefully you will grow out of it soon.

Doctor Appointment
Well today Mommy took you to the doctor to get your shots. As soon as we started to walk down the hall to the room you started to cry. Its amazing how you remember that place. We got you naked to get weighed and you would of thought you had broken a bone or something. You just screamed. Then the doctor came in to examine you and you would not let got of me. He said that you look really healthy. You weigh 19 pounds 4 ounces and 30 inches 1/4 for your heights. Your head was 43 cm. You got three shots today. You were very mad by the end of the visit. It will help you in the long run. Maybe on your next visit you wont be so mad.

Your Birthday
Well today is officially your birthday. I cant believe that you are one. This last year went by so fast!! Today the weather is a lot like it was when you came home. Cold, windy, raining, and snowing. Grandma Eve took you to McDonald's for lunch so you could have nuggets and fries. The things you love most. That afternoon we went and saw Grandpa Clark and then mom and dad took you to the toy store. You were really tired so we went on a drive and you slept. That night daddy made us dinner and had chocolate cake. You got it everywhere. After that we decided to go to Perkins so mom and dad could have some coffee. You were really tired by the time we got home. For the most part I think that you enjoyed your day. Cant wait to see what the next year brings.
