HOLY WATER ON MY HEAD.

MOMMY, DADDY AND ME AFTER

I WAS BAPTISED.

This was a very busy weekend. My birthday was on Friday. We started out by going to breakfast at IHOP, where the waitresses put a candle in some French Toast and sang "Happy Birthday to Abby." We went home and Mommy and both Grandma's made me a chocolate cake for my party. We went to Chili's for dinner with Daddy then it was home and bed.

On Saturday, both Grandma's and both Grandpa's hung up banners, streamers and blew up a lot of balloons. Mommy and Daddy came home with a lot of food and some pretty cakes.

After a while, friends started coming. First,Mommy's friend Stephanie and Calin came, Then Aunt Stephanie, followed by Auntie Tiah and Derek and Drake. Uncle Paul came but Aunt Haley couldn't come. Uncle Travis came a little late because he had to work. Everybody brought presents because the invitation said NO GIFTS. I got so many toys. Mommy can put the baby toys away because I now have big-girl toys.

We ate lots of food and yummy cake. I got to play in the chocolate cake. No body wanted to eat it after I was through.

Sunday, Mommy and Daddy and I took Grandma Linda and Grandpa Greg to our church. Grandma Kay and Grandpa Bob and Uncle Paul were there.

After church, Auntie Tiah, Derek, Drake and Aunt Stephie and Uncle Travie came and I got Baptised. I was a very good girl. Some of Grandma and Grandpa's friends stayed and watched and some of Daddy's friends from his work came too. I got to wear a long white dress and Grandpa said I looked like an Angel! After that, we went to Marie Callender's for brunch. It was a very busy weekend. When we got home Mommy and I took a nap.

Today I had my one year check up. I had to get 3 shots and I cried. I now weigh 20 pounds and 8 ounces.(the 40th percentile) and I am 31 inches tall. (the 94th percentile) We can now turn my car seat around so I can see where we are going, and I can now drink regular milk! I have 10 teeth so I can eat pretty much anything. I love turkey and yogurt.

It's been a very nice first year............but look out world, I'm going to be walking soon and there's no telling what I will do.

WE WENT TO BRUNCH AFTER CHURCH.

HERE, I AM TEACHING GRANDPA GREG

HOW TO PATTY CAKE!
