Friday, After School

Mommy picks me up from school. Once we get home, I get a snack, dinner, and then I run around to play until bedtime.

Today I went out to play. I had to wear my little jacket because it was getting chilly. That didn't stop me from having fun!

I rode on my horse, picked up leaves, and hung out with Mommy and Daddy.

Long Weekend is over

I'm heading back to school after a long weekend. Oh, only if Mommy can catch me!

I know, I'll hide in my pool of balls.

Quack Quack!

Daddy took my picture when I was sneaking around the back patio. I was hoping to find something to get into.

Labor Day weekend

It's Labor day weekend and I had visitors! Uncle Pat, Aunt Kelly & Teagan came.

Mommy and Daddy also celebrated their 5 yr. anniversary.

Teagan, I had so much fun when you came to visit.

We went to Maple farms, the apple orchard. They were all out of carmel apples!

We watched movies and went shopping at Target. My favorite place!

I liked playing with my toys and showing Teagan all the cool things I have. Teagan enjoyed playing with my duck roller and ball popper. I let her roll around on my blanket.

Some how I shared my germs too! Poor Teagan started a cold our last night together. On top of that, she started teething. I think she liked my numbing pills. I know I do!

Thanks for coming! I can't wait to see you all again soon!

Sleepy??

Are you sleepy Daddy?

It's Saturday, Get out of bed you sleepy head!

Molly crawled under the covers with Daddy after attempting to get him up.

If you can't beat them, Join them! Right?

Molly turns 12 Months Old!

I found out that 12 months = 1 year so that means I am 1 year old today!!! Yippy!

I think I'm about 18lbs, 27" long. I have about 8 teeth but about 2 of those are just popping through.

Some things I've learned in the last month are:
Just perfecting my walking skills even more. My eating skills, such as using utensils, and learning to speak words. I am also working on riding on my new car. So far I can go backwards.

I have been saying some words for several months now however, in the last few months I've learned to sort of say Dog, woof, duck, Quack, Shoe or Shhh-oooo, Momma, dadda, Babba, Yea, No, and that". When I went to the fair I saw a cow and said "moo"

Mom says that the first thing I started saying was Dadda and Momma at 7mth. My "woof" was more like a woowooo at around 7.5 mths

I learned sign language to communicate with family and friends. I can sign "More, eat, baby, ball, milk, hello & good bye", and sort of sign "Daddy"

I really like to use the sign "eat" all the time.

Once I started school I really dived into that solid food. I enjoy adventuring into new tastes. I don't think I've disliked anything yet.

My personality is really coming through now. I let my parents know when I want something. I scruntch up my nose and lips, turn red, and cry. Then I point to what I want. As if this wasn't enough right? They don't always give me what I want.

I love to have fun the most. I laugh a lot! I love jumping into my pool of balls. I love when Mom and Dad chase me around the house. I really get a laugh when the dogs chase each other too.

I'm walking really good! It took me about 2 days to perfect this art just around 10mth. Now I'm all over the place.

I enjoy reading books, playing with my puzzles and holding baby. But give me a box, or cabinent I can pull things out of, any day!

Well, this year has been jammed packed with so much fun! I've traveled from Ohio to Florida and to Illinois. I made so many friends along the way! I started school and am learning so much. We ended my first year with a big "Molly Pop" birthday bash!

I can't wait for what's in store for the next year to come!

I'm a todler now!! Look out world. Here comes Molly!!!!

The Cleveland Zoo

Sunday Aug. 15th Grandma & Grandpa took us all to the Cleveland Zoo. It was amazing!

Did I mention how hot it was? Well, it was HOT!!! We all sweat off a few pounds while we walked around. I think it made it to over 95 degrees. We enjoyed the airconditioned buildings the most!

At the Zoo we saw a Koala bear and her baby, lions and tigers, fish, turtles, and big Monkeys too!!!

Aunt Julie, Uncle Shawn, & Cousin Noah spent the day with us too. Noah wet through his outfit. He had the right idea though. His Mommy took off his outfit so he can be nice and cool.

Did you know that Noah is 3.5 mth old now? Looks like he caught up to me in size! Wow! I guess I'm pretty small.

One thing you will see me do at that zoo is point out all the animals. If I spot one I'll point and let you know. I'll "OOooo Ahh ahh" when I see a monkey.

There is no need to be afraid they are all behind cages.

We went to the petting section where I pet a goat. I pulled his back hair and scared the poor thing. He swung his head over to bite my hand. Mommy pulled me away just in time.

That old Goat!!

Noah and I got a stuffed animal at the rainforest. I got a green tree frog. He's soft and pretty!

When we got to the car, I zonked out! I woke up when everyone was eating dinner at the Maccaroni
grill. There, I got to taste chicken parm., Beef Kabobs and broccoli, and my favorite, Spaghetti! MMM! Yummy!

Thanks for the fun day Everyone!
