One year!

Wow! It's been a whole year (and a few weeks at this point).

Amelia walks EVERYWHERE! No more crawling. She is signing the words eat, more, baby, diaper, and all done. I think she gets Thank you confused with blowing kisses! It's so cute! She also says baby, HI!, up, hot, at (Cat).
She loves to tumble. Where ever she is and she gets the urge she puts her hands and head down and waits for someone to help her tumble over!

She's been sleeping 12-13 hours straight everynight for a few weeks also.
It's very exciting to watch her grow up!
We are weaning from breastfeeding. That is going well. She now nurses when she wakes up (which will be the next to go) and right before bed. We are weaning because Brandon and I are going on a cruise for our 5th anniversary without Amelia, and I don't want her to think that not only have we left but a sudden stop in nursing seems painful to both parties.







We had a great birthday party. There were pink pinwheels everywhere! Amelia had fun eating her chocolate cupcake and playing with all the kids!!

It was a lot of fun! Cupcakes were cute and delicious. So glad we were able to come over. And to see Miss Amelia start walking!
