10 months

Only two months until a certain someone celebrates her
FIRST birthday!
Whoa!
That's just crazy!
Time is just going by too fast,
and she is doing something new everyday!
(Jake wanted to push her in the dump truck. I'm glad I convinced him that was not a good idea.)
With the warm temps over the past few days,
she's beginning to get the hang of this 'dirtin' thing -
it's sure to be a fun summer!
Things Allie has learned over the past month include:

The Pledge of Allegiance,
(Kidding - she's not quite that advanced....yet)

wave bye-bye,
(but only with her right hand - the left is still reserved for thumb sucking)

dance,
(she mostly just twists her upper body)


added some new crazy looks, and......
walk!
That's right!
Last Thursday she let go on her own and started walking!

Surprisingly, she performed for the camera the next day....
