Birthday Cake and New Car Video

My 1st Birthday Party

I'm back to tell you all about my first birthday party! I had such a great time with all my friends and I really loved eating my birthday cake. Mommy spent so much time on it that I mostly just picked at it with my fingers but it sure tasted good! I got so many nice presents from my friends and I still love to play with the bus mommy and daddy got me but I really don't like using the door to get in and out.

Mom made cupcakes for my friends and we had lots of good food although I was too busy playing with my new toys to eat any of it. I got an awesome new car from Opa and Gege and I will post some pictures and videos of it for all my Chicago friends to see. I am so lucky to have so many great friends! Gotta run, gotta practice walking! 

I made it!

I am sitting in my new toy bus!

I am 1!!!! Wow, what a great year it has been.  I have a lot of memories, all of which I will never remember (how does that make sense?). 

I woke up this morning and found lots of balloons in the house, which are my favorite. I have had the red one in my hand for well over 5 hours. Mommy decorated the house and bought me some nice new toys to play with. So many of my friends and family have sent text messages, emails and Grandma and Grandpa Doyle even sent me more balloons. I am so lucky.

BIG NEWS! I can now stand up all by myself. I know how to walk but I choose not to. I figure I have a lifetime of walking so I will ride this crawling and being carried thing out as long as I can.

I am looking forward to my party on Saturday. I have some little friends and big friends coming and GeGe is flying in from Chicago... just to see ME. 

I will be sure to not let a year pass before my next blog update. 

Lata,  Sweet Potata!
