We had a great New Year's Eve! We had church in the morning and then we all took a nap in the afternoon, storing up for the late night. Then, we went to a friend's house for a party. Adeline did not want to go to sleep, there was just too much going on and too many people to hang out with. So, she stayed up til midnight with the rest of us. As you can see below, it was a big day for her!
New Year's Eve morning with
friends.
Baba and me playing in the hallway - that's just where we ended up.
Getting ready to go out!
My first steps, caught on camera! I have been holding my balance standing up for a couple of days now, and last night, in front of everyone at the New Year's Party, I decided to take a few steps! It was exciting and today I am up to five steps all by myself (well, after mom and dad stand me up), so it may not be long now...
Miss Leesa reading to me!
All bundled up at 12:10am - still wide awake!
12:12am - knocked out! It was a long, great day!
Adeline had a great first birthday! I will post more soon, but I wanted to share a few pictures from her big day. From top left: Adeline on her birthday morning opening some gifts from family; Adeline and her little cake - she does NOT like to get messy at all, so she wouldn't even put her hands in it. She loved eating it, but only if mom or dad were feeding it to her; our family at the BIG party; some of the girls who came to celebrate with us. I love this picture because I know that they were all paying attention to Adeline, but it looks like they were each having their own conversations and Adeline is just standing up in the middle of them, by herself! Thank you to those of you who sent Adeline birthday wishes - she loves you and so do we! More to come...
