Baby Girl Turns 1!!

Oh yes, the big ONE! I can't believe a whole year ago I was in the hospital waiting to bring my new bundle home!! It really has flied by. Looking at her today, I see a bright eyed petite little fireball who never wants to sit still. So, I thought I would share some of her favorite and not so favorite things with you! Here goes...

Shayne's Favorites:
* Her soft blankies (any one will do!)
* Her Dodger dog
* Being outside
*Cheese and toast
*Dancing (literally)
*Her Nana
*Going upstairs to find Mama or Dada!
*Putting on everyone's shoes!
*Talking
*Playing Guitar with Dada!

Shayne's Dislikes:
*Hearing the word "NO" (what baby likes that word?)
*Sitting in her high chair
*Getting dressed
*Long drives
*Having to come inside

Well, I know it's been a while since my last post, hard to keep everything up between trying to stay on top of her scrapbooks and just life! But today (the 4th) is a HUGE day in our family history!! And today (the 5th) we are celebrating...with a huge 50's sock hop! Wish you all could be here to see our crazy and hilarious costumes...we love dressing up! Well, here's to another wonderfully rewarding year of being your Mommy baby girl Shayne, we love you!

We Have A Climber!

So, we now have a 10 month old...crazy I know! In two short months I will have a one year old, but let's not jump ahead, I can already barely keep up! Anyway, I have to share what a funny little girl we have. We realized that she apparently loves the thought of climbing on stuff, if only she could climb on more things, I know that's what she's thinking! So, yesterday I looked back to see her literally standing on Dodger while holding onto the coffee table (he was actually lying right next to the table) Somehow, she stepped up onto him and was balancing all the while, he was wagging his tail laying there of course! Next thing you know an hour or so later, I catch her standing on our roomba ( you know my favorite little vaccum robot that is shaped like a disk!), with both feet. This time she was keeping her balance on our china cabinet. It is just too funny seeing such a little girl become such a daredevil! Boy are we in trouble!!

My BIG, little 9 month old!

Nine months old today! Can't believe it...my baby girl is so cute. Her latest...she knows the word "dance" I ask her to show us how she dances and she pops her little knees and stomps one foot! And we say "go Shayne, go Shayne" and she keeps on dancin' and laughs, thinks it's real funny! Her two teeth are way in now and it's so cute to see her toothy grin! She is a character, doing more funny stuff each day.
Well, the holidays are over and it was really fun with it being Shayne's first Christmas! She loved opening presents...from the wrapping paper and boxes to what was actually inside. I am secretly glad they are over though, kind of overwhelming! I will try to post a video of her "dancing" as soon as I can capture it, cause it's hilarious! Wishing you all a wonderful 2008!
