Out to lunch with an old friend.

I went to lunch with a girlfriend from hair school, and her little boy Mason. It was so good to visit them. Mason is only a few months older than Ally. We ha a good time. Thanks for the visit Amy!!

My Uncle took the pictures & they are just the proofs, so nothing fancy with them yet, but i just thought they were so cute!! Just wanted to share. I just can't believe how big she is getting. She is so much fun!

Ally's First Birthday!!

I can not believe how fast time has gone by. It seems like yesterday was the day that Ally was born. It is amazing how much this little angel has changed my life and in the best way possible. She is an amazing little girl & I cant wait to see what the future holds for her. I just want to cherish every moment I have because like the past year time goes by way too fast. I Love you with all my heart Ally. Happy 1st Birthday!!

So last weekend Joey, Ally & I went to visit Joeys Dad in Whyoming. We had a really great time. We visited Joey's Grandparents in south Dakota as well. That was the first time they had ever seen ally. I was so glad they finally got to meet her. While we visited we went to Mount Rushmore, that was very cool! Ally traveled to a lot of different places that weekend and did so well in the car & plane, she slept the whole time on both! We had such a good time. hope we can do it again sometime soon!

Park

Ally & I went to the park the other day. We had so much fun. Ally loved the swings & she laughed a lot. It was such a fun day.

Mommy's angel

Cutie patootie
She loves to scream now its her new thing :)
This is her waving with both hands!!
Ally is going to be a yr. next month I can not believe how fast time flies!! Oh big step ALLY IS WALKING!! She actually started walking at 9 months, but she is full on walking now. She would rather do that than anything else. Ally has been so much fun. Her personality is blossoming everyday!! Here are a few other milestones:

• She says "light", "hi", "Uh Oh", "Dada", "Mama", & "hot"
• She loves to give wet, sloppy, lovable kisses & blows kisses to everyone!!
• She is signing: milk, water, thank you, more, all gone, bath, & please

Ally is like a little sponge, she soaks up every little thing that you do or say! I can not wait to see what she learns next.

Getting so big!!

I can not believe how fast time flies. Ally will be a year old in 2 months!! She is already WALKING!!! she is a little monster, but I am loving every second of it!!

Trip down memory lane!!

My mom and I had spent the other night together & we were driving around & decided to go look at our old house in sandy. We turned down the street & i felt as if i was going home. As we
pulled into the circle I felt sad, I missed that house more than I thought! I had such a great childhood in that neighborhood. Our footprints were still there in the cement, I guess I marked my territory :) I will never forget that home.

Yummy Banana Bread!!

OK usually Mine & Allys routine in the morning is: We eat breakfast & then I let her play around the kitchen & living room (there is nothing for her to get into really) Little did i know that the diaper bag was open & Grandma Lori sent home a half loaf of banana bread home for us to have. So while I sitting on the couch still trying to wake up, it seemed extra quiet. I look next to the couch & there is Ally with the bread out of the zip lock back, all over the floor & her face. I could not help but laugh & of coarse being the sweet heart that she is she offered me a bite. Oh she is a little character!!
