1ST BIRTHDAY!!!

I'm ONE!! I can't believe. My parents can't believe. My family can't believe it. Can you believe it?!

I had a great birthday the week since. I have started some new things like now I drink whole milk, though I don't like it as much as my formula. Also, I'm not getting my "baby" oatmeal anymore which is a bummer because I really like that so my parents are having a hard time finding foods to feed me. I eat great at school, but when I come home, I get all picky, except for yogurt, puffs, and ice cream--I could eat those foods ALL DAY, EVERY DAY!! I also am not drinking from a bottle anymore and use a sippy cup instead now.

I am a lot more adventurous these days--you'll see why here in a few pictures... I'm also pretty chatty. I mostly say Dada, bye, and leche and Mama is dying for me to say her name but not yet. I chatter lots of other things all day long but don't want my parents to figure out what I'm saying yet! I got to spend some time with my sister Sami this week and loved it. I laughed every time she ran around or jumped up but she wasn't interested in me and would growl if I got too close to her :( Oh, so I have big news. I am moving up to a new classroom where I will make new friends and have new teachers and learn more. I started transitioning last week and I start full time tomorrow. My teachers from my old class are really sad, but I know I'll get to see them all the time. I love all of my teachers and am lucky to go to such a great school! My teachers celebrated my birthday with cupcakes for me and my friends. I loved the icing and the cake and ate almost the whole thing!

My 1st birthday morning--thanks a lot Mom--I hadn't even gotten freshened up...

Ha, Grandma Carol got me this onesie and shorts outfit for my birthday but when I tried it on, it was huge!!! We laughed pretty hard about it and it did look cute on me, but it definitely was not wearable!





Grandma Carol came over to see me on my birthday and watch me open a couple of presents.







These presents were from Auntie Karlie

She got me a Pooh Bear because Daddy had a Pooh Bear that I have in my toy chest now...mine looks much better than his does! I love my Pooh Bear!





Auntie also got me these cool Vans shoes that I can't wait to wear!!













The Durben Family got me these cute outfits!

Grandma got me this cute frame! 



I didn't get cake for my birthday because we were saving that for my party but I did get some chocolate chip cookie and I loved it, despite what my face shows in some of these pictures!



















My Tia Stellie and Tio Charlie came over to give me a birthday present too. They got me a Barbie Power Wheels ATV and I love it! So this is what I was talking about when I said I was getting a little adventurous and I'll have to post pictures later. I now get on my ATV backwards and then press the button so I ride backwards and often standing up. And, to make it worse, I stand up on the seat and drive my parents crazy. I've already fallen off twice but I love it!









We celebrated my birthday at the Yard House on Friday afternoon during Happy Hour (yeah, my parents rock!). I had my Grammies and cousins and presents and cake (thanks Grammy J for the cakes-they were awesome!) and had a perfect time. You can look at my videos on Youtube (http://www.youtube.com/user/nicolefabian3?feature=mhee)




























We got my 1-yr pictures taken Saturday and I wasn't very thrilled to be there but we got a few that are adorable and a few more that are cute :) Thanks Grandma Carol for the gold tutu outfit and Grammies J & W for the blue and brown dress. I have the best 3 Grammies!!!
