Pickle's 1st Birthday


Can you believe it? Our little Pickle is 1! She had an exciting day that actually began on Saturday afternoon with the arrival of a balloon bouquet from MeMe! The balloons were a big hit!
She had quite a haul on her birthday with a fancy new wagon, her first doll house, a fun giggly octopus thing, and a bunch of new clothes. The giggly octopus sounds just like her when she does her evil laugh!The kids and I went to the park to hang out at the bike race with JP and she got to ride in her wagon.
The day was completed by the arrival of the cousins! An exciting trip to the airport and getting reacquainted with her cousin who is 20 months (these pictures are from today).
The girls were already ruling the roost last night when they figured out they could throw rocks from the sunroom window on their brothers. They are a cute twosome!

Her birthday ended with a final present . . . her very own Minnie! She hugged it close to her and was very excited to sleep with her last night.
Post birthday included a trip today to the doctor for her 1 year check up and shots. She weighed 21.1 lbs and is 30 1/2 inches tall which is the 90th percentile. Pickle is trying to walk and can take a few steps when she wants. Her strength is climbing!
