Whee! Daddy pushes me on the swings! Then he catches me and pushes me again. I love it!

Mommy tells me I'll grow up big and strong like my Daddy. When I try to walk a mile in his shoes, I know I've still got a way to go.

If I could only learn to deal with all the stress I encounter in my busy, busy days!

Daddy and I talked to Grandma and Papa on the telephone last night. We called to wish them a Happy St. Patrick's Day and to let them know that I can say "Grandma" and "Papa" now. I'm not quite ready for public speeches yet. Maybe soon, though!

Daddy sure seems to be enjoying watching me eat my First Birthday cake. I'm not sure of the proper etiquette since I've never had one before, but this method of eating it really lets me get into it, so to speak!

Daddy's holding me and I feel completely safe in his arms. I hope I grow up to be big and strong like he is.

Here I am celebrating at my 1st Birthday Party. Mommy has to hang on to me now to keep up with me. I can run around with the other kids and play. Imagine what will I be able to do by my next birthday!

You talkin' to me? Now that I've celebrated a birthday you can't just put anything over on me, you know. I'm wise to the world now. Wonder what it will be like after my next birthday!
