Swimming Pool!

I got to take a swim in my new pool with Daddy on my birthday.  Earlier, he tried to put me in, but the water was a bit too cold and scary for me.  Later on though, he hopped in with me and brought some toys too.  I was still a bit unsure, but I got more comfortable after awhile and had lots of fun!

Prepping my pool

Grandma and Grandpa Bliss got me an inflatable swimming pool for my birthday!  Here I am with Daddy blowing it up.  And later I got suited up as the water was warming up outside.

Hair Do!

After my bath, Daddy put my hair up in a type of topknot ponytail with one of my new hair ties. The next morning my hair was all standing up still.

Cute shots

Here are some cute random shots of me on my birthday.

Bow and a Fork

Here I am rockin' one of my new hair barrette bows and practicing using a fork to eat some bananas.

Birthday Morning

Daddy made sure to uphold his silly tradition of waking me up with his camera on my birthday.

HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY BAILEY!! A Year in Review

Yay!  Happy Birthday to ME!!  Although I've already had my party, today is my actual first birthday.  Daddy and I thought it would be nice to show everyone how much I've grown, so here goes:

Here I am at one hour old on my very VERY first birthday.

That's me at one month.  What a silly expression, huh?

Here I am at two months.  I think that is when I decided to be a super cutie.

And there I am at three months learning to hold myself up on my tummy.

There I am at four months, just giggling away.

See the next two posts for the continuation...

HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY BAILEY!! Cont.

That's me at five months, rockin' my pretty dress and patent leather shoes.

Here I am six months old, livin' it up in my Exer Saucer!

Seven months old, getting ready to crawl!

Eight months, and up to mischief in my crib.

Here's my nine month picture, I think I was pretty hyper that day.

Please continue to the next post for the conclusion of the year in review...

HAPPY 1ST BIRTHDAY BAILEY!! Conc.

That is my ten month shot, the one that Daddy worked so hard for.

Eleven months, playing with Daddy's hat on Father's Day.

And this is me today, a beautiful, smiling, happy, and energetic one-year-old.

Pretty amazing how much I've grown and changed isn't it.  I started out a wrinkly little pointy eared cutie, and I've sprouted up into this bouncy, giggly, and very curious super-cute little girl. It has been a wonderful first year of life for me, and thank you to all my friends and family who have been so welcoming and loving to me.  I hope I have been able to touch all of your lives as much as you have all touched mine.  It has been a great year of firsts, and I have learned so much already.  I'm looking forward to a couple of milestones like talking and potty training an all of that, but I know Mommy and Daddy are pretty proud of all that I've learned so far.  So, thanks again, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!

New Shoes!

Grandma and Grandpa were camping at Beacon Rock, and Mommy, Daddy, and I decided to go visit them.  But first I had to get some new shoes so I could wander around in the campsite.  Here are some pictures of me getting my pretty dress all dirty and exploring the campsite.  And I had some fun with Grandma inside their tent!

Birthday Party: Playing with Presents

Here are some more pictures of me playing with all the wonderful gifts everyone brought me.  As you can see, Jackson partied himself out and fell asleep on his daddy's lap.
