Happy Birthday to Me!!!

A new year, a first year, the Cards, the Cats, walking, and causing trouble - what a great month this one has been...


As you can see, I was not the poster child for the New Year's baby. I can hardly stay up past 730p. Nope, I went to bed like it was any old night, while Mommy and Daddy watched the ball drop, then went to sleep themselves.


I did get a special visitor this month. Mom's friend Ali was in town interviewing at Penn for a residency spot. It was nice to meet her.


January 5th was the UK/UofL game. Daddy was on call that day so Mommy dressed me in red and blue. Boy, I was confused. I sure didn't like wearing this trucker hat though - that just made this outfit a little too over the top.


The next day while Mommy was at work, Daddy dressed me in my Cards gear and gloated all day long.


On January 6th, I had my birthday party - don't tell anyone that my birthday wasn't until the 9th. It was Sesame Street themed - I love Elmo. Don't Mommy and Daddy look silly in their hats. There were lots of people here to help me celebrate. I showed off all my funny skills including the walking that I was learning to do. I was quite the entertainer.


See my cake? It was yummy.


And look at my Elmo and Oscar cupcakes!





Cake is yummy!

January 9th is my real birthday. Daddy was on call that day. Boo. The day was pretty low key, although I did have a little party at daycare. I got to open a few presents. I don't really know why people call it a birthday - I got presents and cake lots of times this month! At this point, I could only take a few steps, so whenever Mommy left to go in the other room, I got mad because I couldn't follow her. Mamamama!


I got this cool puzzle.


When Mommy is on call, Daddy lets me dress in whatever clothes I pick out. He also lets me dance on the dryer. Playing with Daddy is fun!


Look at me!!! I'm walking on the streets of Philadelphia! I can even walk the 1.5 blocks home from daycare, though it takes like half an hour. I've also learned how to say hi and bye.


This is my sleepy face after I'm all clean and ready for bed.


And now I have almost enough hair for a faux hawk. The few hairs that I have are curly!


I like being one!!! I'm such a big boy. Thank you all for looking at my blog and I look forward to new adventures next month. Keep in touch!
