My First Birthday...My First Accident!

I turned One this past Friday! I officially have 5 teeth (2 on top and 4 on bottom), I just learned how to drink out of a straw and I can take 5-6 steps on my own. I got my official pictures taken last weekend but we don't have the digital versions yet. Mommy will put them on the blog as soon as we have them. My party was going to be on Sunday but I had an accident on Saturday so plans were changed.
Mommy and I went to pick up my cake on Saturday. Mommy pulled out the umbrella stroller at the back of the car and put me in it and while she was looking for the strap to get me secured, I reached over and put my hand in the tail pipe and then grabbed it with the other hand too. I got second degree burns on my hands and spent the afternoon at the ER. I got all bandaged up and went back home. I was remarkably happy considering I wasn't given any serious medication for pain. I did get to hang out with my cousin Drew when we got home.
We went back to the ER on Sunday to have my hands checked again and cleaned, etc. Mommy stayed home with me today and we went to my pediatrician and they said I was healing really well. My hands should be healed within the next few weeks without scarring. Daddy is staying home with me tomorrow.

I am going to get a birthday cake to smash when my hands are healed and then we can take some pictures for you all to see. In the meantime, here are some pictures from this weekend....

I got balloons from my great grandma and great grandpa Wilson. I love them!
Drew and I enjoyed playing together. I look like I have boxing gloves on....I got to have my fingers free on Sunday so I could pick things up better.

New Toys

Only a couple of weeks and I will be turning one! Wow! I am trying to walk but still not taking off yet. I have take a few steps on my own. And I will walk with my toys or holding someone's hand but would prefer to crawl still for the most part.
We are waiting for my other front tooth to come in....it is VERY close to breaking through. I can now say "up" and I point up and then will try and say "down" and point down. I say "vroom" when playing with my trucks. I continue to say "uh oh" and just started to say the "ma, ma ma" sounds. And I will show you things when you ask where they are.....like duck, truck, light and ball.
Mommy gave me some peanut butter and I liked it but still prefer grilled cheese to peanut butter and jelly. But no allergies so that was good news.

Mommy's friend gave us a car for me to cruise around in and it is super fun! It's missing one eye but perfect otherwise.
Here is my early birthday present from Grandma Cindy and David....not sure what I am calling everyone yet. It is half sand and half water. I didn't know what to do at first....
And then I figured out how to pick the sand up and throw it on the ground......a very fun game!
My future's so bright, I gotta wear shades!

New Teeth and The Art of Walking

No new pictures right now but I wanted to say....I have a front/top tooth now! And the second one on top is coming in too. I have also been practicing my walking skills. I can go 4-5 steps all by myself now. Mommy and daddy are trying to get a video of it to show everyone.

Easter Bunny Pictures and a New Bathing Suit

This weekend was all about the Easter Bunny! I got to meet him twice....once in our neighborhood clubhouse and then again at the mall!


Mommy and daddy took me to the mall to see the official Easter Bunny! I was not scared at all. In fact, I was so interested in touching and grabbing at him that I wouldn't look at the camera. But I finally decided to turn around so we could get one good picture. It was also really cold so I couldn't wear my cute outfit that mommy wanted to put on me.
Here is mommy and me with the Easter Bunny at the neighborhood clubhouse. They had an easter egg hunt too but I am not quite big enough to enjoy that yet.
I am really into this!
Check out my new bathing suit! I can't wait to get some color!
Check it out, I am pushing this thing around pretty good!

Trip to Easley

This past weekend we went to Easley for a wedding shower mommy was helping to give for my uncle Jon's fiance. We had a great time and got to visit with family we haven't seen in a long time. Here are some pictures from our trip!

In other news...I now have 4 teeth! I got another tooth on the bottom.....it just broke through yesterday......that makes 4 on the bottom and none on the top!

I have never seen one of these before.....
Can someone help me up here please?
Okay, this is really cool and makes lots of noise!
I think I am getting good at this....
I don't want to leave this new toy yet!

Something else I love to play with that is not technically a toy!
