My first birthday party!

I turned one year old on Wednesday!  Here's what I think about that:
But I decided to celebrate anyway, so we went to Yorba Regional Park today.  Mama, Papa, Nana, Opa, Great Aunt Sally, and Great Grandma Modine all showed up to celebrate me!  I haven't seen Great Grandma Modine since my baptism, so I wasn't quite sure about her at first.
Papa took me down the slide on the playground...
...and I got to play with all the balloons Nana picked up for me.
I got lots of new toys and can't wait to make a big mess with them in the living room!
Of course, no party is complete without cake.
I'm lucky to have so many people who love me!

Disneyland with Papa!

This morning I asked Papa if he wanted to have an impromptu Disney date with me and Mama.  I was so surprised when he said yes!  The first thing we did when we arrived was take the Disneyland Railroad from Main Street to New Orleans Square.
We got FASTPASSes to Haunted Mansion and then visited Santa at Big Thunder Ranch.  The last time I saw him, I was only two weeks old.  I wasn't quite as fond of him this year.
We spent the rest of the afternoon waiting in line going on rides.  We went on Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean, Dumbo, Snow White, and Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.
I even got a birthday button (although my birthday isn't for three more days).
I had such a fun day with my family!
Thank you, Papa, for fighting the crowds to have fun with me!  I love you!!

The countdown is on...

In 7 days I will be ONE YEAR OLD!  Every day I show Mama and Papa how much I am growing up.  This week I showed them that I can say "no" by shaking my head back and forth, and I used a spoon by myself for the first time.  I even got some of the food in my mouth!
Yesterday, Nana took me shopping and let me pick out two pairs of walking shoes!  I wore the silver ones to Story Time today.
Thank you, Nana!

Santa Ana Zoo

Last week, my friend Lucas and I took our mommies to the Santa Ana Zoo.  We got to see monkeys, birds, and an emu.  But our favorite part was riding the choo choo train!

Halloween!

Just because I'm too young to trick-or-treat doesn't mean I can't get dressed up!

Pumpkin patch

Aunt Stacey joined me, Mama, and Papa at the pumpkin patch today.
After a train ride, we walked around looking for the perfect pumpkin.
How about one of these?
Or maybe this one?
...pause for some pictures...
Here's a whole bunch of pumpkins.  Will any of these do?
We finally settled on the perfect pumpkin and brought it home.
Papa cleaned it out while I made sure it wasn't rotten.
Then I helped him carve out the face.
Once we were all done, I challenged him to a staring contest, but, boy, was he good at it!
I finally gave up and congratulated him on the win.

Aquarium of the Pacific

I spent the afternoon at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach with Mama, Papa, and Auntie Allison. 
We got to see all kinds of cool ocean animals...
...and I even got to touch a jellyfish!
My favorite part of the day was splashing my hands in the shark petting pool until I was soaking wet!
My least favorite was watching Papa feed the lorikeets...
What a fun day!!

11 months!

Only one more month until my 1st birthday!  I can hardly believe how fast this year has gone.  Me and Papa celebrated with breakfast in bed.
After breakfast I played with Lexi and then Papa and I took a nap together.
After I got all freshened up with a bath, Mama almost got me to pose for my picture.

Happy girl!

What do you do...

...when it's 1:00am and you can't sleep?
Help Mama make Papa's lunch, of course!

Tigger!

Last week Opa gave me a little bit of spending money to pick out a new toy. Today I found the perfect soft and snuggly Tigger to bring home to play with. Thank you, Opa!!
