The house is started

Last Friday they moved dirt for our new house!  It is going to be a long 4 1/2 months until our house is ready but thankfully we have a wonderful photographer that is going to capture it all for us.

First day of school!

Today was Baeo’s first day of preschool!  Man, I can’t believe the time has already come.  He was very excited to get to school this morning and did great.  I think preschool will do all of us some good!

He goes Mondays and Wednesdays from 9-11:30.  The preschool gives them bags that are easier for the kids to get into and for the teachers to go by and drop notes/art projects in each day.

Adi was excited for Braedon to start school too.

Lets be honest, big brothers can be punks. 

Ahh, a brother and sister hug.  At least a brother hug, Adi’s just hoping he had some peanut butter on his hand leftover from breakfast.

Happy first day of school little man!

One whole year!

Adi had her one year check up yesterday and she checked out perfectly healthy!  Here are her stats:

Height: 38 inches

Weight: 20.8 pounds

Adi’s likes: Her blankie, playing with her brother’s toys, eating pretty much everything that is put in front of her, music, walking around the house with  help, swinging at the park, splashing in the bathtub, riding in the grocery cart, cell phones, the iPad, anything else that isn’t a toy.

Adi’s dislikes: Long car rides, sitting in her high chair with no food on her tray…I can’t think of anything else.  She is one happy girl!

New developments: Walks with assistance, says mama, signs and says milk, signs finished, says dog and hi.  Cruises along anything she can get her hands on.

Now for fun, a look back over this last year!

Adi dominates her cake

A princess’s birthday

My little lady turned the big 0-1 on Saturday.

We had some close friends and family over to help her celebrate…

eat her cake…

and open her presents.

In case you were wondering, a princess doesn’t have to do anything for herself.

Even if she wants to.

I guess cousin Lilly doesn’t have to do anything herself either.

When Mr. Baeo’s around anyway.

One more shot of the cake eating action.

After cake, which then needed a quick bath, the princess changed into her evening attire for presents.

That would be the Queen Bee to the far right, probably asking where her piece of cake and crown are.

After present time, our little princess had come down off of her sugar high and was all ready for a lovely night of slumber.

This would be cousin Camille, a girl after my own heart…

and my cake.

The next morning, since we had all four grandkids together, we had some pictures taken with grandma and grandpa.

I only took about 42 pictures and still don’t know if we captured a winner.

I take that back.

These capture that very moment.

Perfectly.

Happy Birthday my sweet baby girl!  You are very loved!
