1 Year Pictures

Here are some of my pictures that I had taken today. I sure love this dress that Aunt Peggy gave me for my birthday!!

Birthday pictures

It's been a busy week since my birthday and birthday party. Mommy and Daddy have a contract on our house so we have to move on June 18th. We also have a contract on a new house to close on June 20th. We will be homeless for a couple of days. Mommy and Daddy are worried about how I'll handle it, but I keep telling them I'm easy going and will take it in stride. My Grandma Schulte is also moving at the same time we are. It's going to be one hectic month!
My eye surgery is on Thursday. I can't eat anything after midnight, it's going to be hard when I wake up hungry not to be able to have anything to eat or drink. I can't wait until it's over and my eye won't have to be wiped anymore.
Here are some pictures from my birthday. I sure had a lot of fun. Thank you everyone for coming and thank you for all the presents. I am blessed to have you all as friends and family!!


My actual birthday Mommy and Daddy and Puck and I all had a nice evening at home together celebrating my birthday.

What is this?

It sure does taste good!

Mommy, you try some, it's really yummy!!

Now onto the presents!







Hey, I love my new bike helmet..

Wait, I've changed my mind....I hate it!!

Here Daddy, you can wear it!



My birthday party on Saturday at the park, it turned out cold and rainy, unusual weather for the end of May.

















The afternoon after my party I enjoyed playing with my new toys

and relaxing with Mommy

and Daddy.

Walking!!

I thought I'd share a video with you of me walking. I'm getting so much better. It took me a while but today I made it all the way across the living room by myself. It was a big day today because this is the first time I've taken over 5 steps by myself!! Look out world!!

Almost ONE!

Today is my last day of being an infant. Tomorrow is the big day that I turn one year old. I'm lucky and some friends of Mommy and Daddy and family have already sent me presents and I begged and begged them and they finally let me open a few presents early. Here are some videos and pictures of me opening the presents. Thank you so much Nichol, Dave, Syd and Jacob and Ty and Jerry. I still have presents from Aunt Peggy, Aunt Gretchen and Nana and Papa that Mommy and Daddy are making me wait to open.

First trip to the zoo

Today Mommy and Daddy took off work and took me to the St. Louis Zoo. I was so excited that I took a nap on the way there to make the drive go by faster. I loved looking at the animals but was most excited by the Carousel and clapped and squealed as we approached. I was so excited to ride on the Carousel, but got afraid to ride the horse by myself (with Mommy holding onto me) so we decided to sit on the bench that doesn't move instead of the horse that moves and both had fun going around and around. I think my favorite animals were the Penguins because I could get the closest to them, there was one that was having a lot of fun swimming and splashing all the visitors, including me and Daddy. :) Here are some pictures from my day....
