It Happened

Well. It looks like it's happening. My baby is turning into a toddler.

The jump has been gradual (at least the toddling part) but the reel kicker came when she turned

ONE this past Wednesday.

One. I have a One Year Old.

Disregard Family Feud in the background. Obviously I only watch quality television with my children.
I  also have to admit I really think Steve Harvey is hilarious

This video is from a few weeks ago, she is now walking fast holding two hands and slowly with one. She also FLIES down the hallway with the Croc Walker now.

Honestly, this year has gone fast... but not that fast. It doesn't feel like it's been 365 (well like 370 now) days. But a lot has happened.

She came from looking like this



to looking like this





So. yes, it's been a long year. But a pretty freaking amazingly awesome one.

Things like this


and like this


but there were many nights of rock rock rocking that I also kinda still loved. Even though it was frustrating and induced crying for us both.

She has really made me look good by being a pretty amazingly mild-mannered little one. She is impressing everyone still by parroting words all the time. People ask how I get her to do things and I respond "uhhhhhhhh.... I have no idea".

OK, so I'm going to be a braggasaurus here and list the words she can say. Just because I can, so there.

Mama
Daddy
Doggie
Buckley
Hi
Hey
Thank You

I'm sure there a few others. Now, she doesn't really know what they mean ("Daddy" over here nursing you sure loves to hear you saying that). But it is darned cute.

On a adult note, I went to Chicago for work last Monday and didn't get back until MM was in bed already, so that was kinda sad and I only cried once.

Also I played this game with some real lushes (myself included... If you can't beat'm...) on Friday night.

I have to say that the American version of this game is pretty good, but really really work to get the Canadian version. It's freaking amazing and the developers must have been dropping acid when they made it.  But if you haven't been jaded by the outstanding version, the American version is a very close second.

What else, I believe I've caught you up on the big things.

Ohh, MM has starting making a Godzilla noise whenever we stack block which could be confused for being fuss (but what good and knowledgeable mother would not know the difference??? You guess.)


She leave them in rubble

Also, after I came home from Chi-town I took a very needed day off with my girl that included napping, walking, and going to see daddy at school


Ohh please, be blurrier, I dare you.

And finally, Mary Margaret must have known I was going to need some extra cuddles from her, because last Sunday morning I ran a chilly 5 miler in Durham and she was cold and tired by the end, you'd think she was the one doing the work. She needed some snuggles in my shirt to avoid the wind and ended up falling asleep and looking like a weird and super cute alien.



Precious?
