Wow a whole year. What an amazing year. A year so full of love, fun, goofiness, patience, caring, understanding, and faith. She has made our love for each other stronger and we feel stronger in the Lord. The Lord has shown us a glimpse of His love for us by giving us Allie. She continues to amaze me by the amount of love I feel for her that grows on a daily basis. We are truly blessed.
Some updates! She is becoming more and more brave in standing. She has yet to walk but is letting go of things regularly. She is trying out alot of new signs but can't quite do them on her own yet, but I have a feeling she will just take off with them. She LOVES music, she has a toy that plays music and everyday she stands next to it, pushes the button, looks at me and shakes her little body. She started doing a little shimy shake when she gets excited. It's so cute! She laughs for no reason and she does this often. and sometimes to strangers in the store. and she got her first taste of cake today and loved it! She is her mother's daughter. Pictures to come of her very special day. Here are all the monthly pictures I have taken of her over the last year. Enjoy!

The Worst Ever
You know what sucks even worse then your baby being sick (which is pretty bad in itself), you being sick as well. You know whats even worse then that, your husband is even sicker then the two of you. We experienced this ALL weekend.

Borrowed Cute Story
I thought I should post this super cute story even though it isn't mine! My sister's friend was giving her son (5) breakfast the other morning when he asked what book she was reading. She said it was a book that my sister had given her. He said does it have a character named Holly in it? She said no I don't have any books with a character named Holly. He said yes you do you read it all the time, her name is Holly Bibble. Mel had no clue what he was talking about. So he went to get the book and he brought her the Holy Bible. Cute huh. :)

Finally!
All throughout my pregnancy I wasn't able to get my ring off. I was agonized at the thought of having to cut it off. Well it finally came off after a year! Granted I haven't been trying all that hard but I am super excited to finally have it off. I think I will have it sized now so that doesn't happen again. :)

27
Yesterday we celebrate Matt's 27th. It feels like such a treat to have dinner and a movie now. We had dinner at Todai downtown and then we saw The Invention of Lying. Both pretty good. :) Allie and I love you with all our hearts. Your the best husband and father EVER!

Our Dancing Girl
Here are a couple more videos. She just started doing the cutest little dance. It's the smallest little movement but worth the watch. Sometimes she moves her arms back and forth and today she started shaking her shoulder - only one. :) Check them out here and here.

Hi Dada
Check out this video of Allie talking to Dada on the phone. It's so cute how she holds the phone to the back of her head instead of to her ear. She just started doing that a few days ago.

11 Months Old!
I was so busy planning her first birthday party I forgot to take her 11 month pictures so these are a few days late. She is learning and growing everyday it's hard to keep up! She now knows 10 signs (give or take) but her favorite sign is dog and our favorite sign is elephant. She started doing that sign after we went to the zoo for the first time and she got to see one up close. Of course when we went to the zoo both my friend and I forgot our memory cards, bummer. She now pulls her self up on anything, including toys laying in the middle of the living room but she has yet to let go of anything, on purpose anyways. My favorite thing that she started doing this month is actually puckering up and giving mom a kiss, oh and when she does the itsy bitsy spider, It's so cute! I know she is going to be a dancer too because anytime she hears music even background music on a show she starts bobbing up and down. :) This will be the last normal month pictures because the next one will be when she is 1 year! and in her cute little costume.

Willy Strikes Again
Remember this....Well this time it happened at my sisters while her friend was watching him. She said he finger painted with the poop, it was up his nose and in his hair. Gross! I am so scared he will do it at my house! I don't think I could handle it! Anyone have any ideas to keep his clothes/diaper on?
