My first year in retrospect - Part One

Today is my First Birthday and look how much I have grown.

I have had a very exciting year and have sure done and learned a lot of fun things.
To start with I was born on January 11, 2006 at 5:33pm. I was suppossed to be born earlier but I didn't want to come out of my nice warm home. Finally with some coaxing I popped right out and got to meet my mummy and daddy for the first time.
Then not too long afterwards I got to experience my first snowfall (I didn't care for it too much but look how much i like it now).

I gave mummy and daddy a pretty hard time because I liked to be held a lot and finally I learned to sleep through the night when i was 9 months old

When I was 4 1/2 months old I started to learn to eat solid foods and then over the next couple months I grew 7 teeth so now I brush them every day.

I have been very busy and here are some of my other milestones-

I gave a great big smile to my mummy and daddy when I was 5 weeks old. I learned that my hands were a great thing to put into my mouth at 3 months and that they can also be used to pick up things. At 5 months I learned that my feet were way more tastier than my hands. In April I showed how well I can laugh with a great big belly laugh. When I was 6 months old I amazed my parents with how well I can roll around (and right off a bed!). By August I was crawling around and getting into things like the cat's dishes. Then to make things harder for the parents I decided that I should learn to stand up (which I got so good at that i could even dance). I had my parents convinced that I would walk before I was 10 months old but I held out till the day after I turned 10 months. Now I am a holy terror on two feet. I learned that I can make mummy cry when I said "mumma" in October and by December I made daddy proud when I called his name. I have learned the stairs are fun to climb up, the crib is fun to try to climb out of, the highchair was a cinch to climb out of and the cats are fun to chase around and bodyslam when I catch them. I've learned that I don't like needles and that sometimes hospitals can be fun when they let you run around and not put masks over your face or things up your nose. I learned that no matter what I do and especially when I say things that I can make my parents smile and that they love me unconditionaly. I can't wait to keep on learning new things and getting bigger.
