Week 54 & 55.... What a zoo!
April 13th - April 26th, 2009

In this two weeks, I turned one! Can you beleive it! I hit my first big milestone. Okay, not really, I've had lots of milestones. At my age, everything is a milestone: the first time I smile, sit-up, crawl, pull up. Basically, it's pretty easy to impress these parents of mine.

I LOVE bath time. I love any kind of water, and I beg to get in any time I see some! Mom and I have great talks while I'm taking a bath. She teaches me about ducks and boats and all sorts of things.



On Saturday the 18th, we went to take some photos of me in the tulips at the University of TN garden. Mom loves taking photos there.
We also went to the zoo! It was so exciting because it was my first trip! Here I am with a turkey. Dad tells me to get pretty familiar with what they look like because he might take me hunting when I get older.
I also got to pet a goat! It was really cool. After we left the zoo we were going to go get something to eat. I feel asleep on the way home though, and mom and dad decided they were too tired as well, so we just went home. We got home at 6, and I was so tired I slept the rest of the night! Mom and Dad decided they should take me to the zoo more often.
Sunday, I was officially one year old! It was raining, but Mom snapped a few photos of me inside anyways.
Here I am making faces at Dad. He's pretty crazy.

The next Friday, Uncle Jeremy and Aunt Kristin came to visit. They hung out with us for a while, and then took me to Aunt Stephanie's house with them. Mom and Dad were going to a concert (Whatever that is) that night. I had a blast with my Aunts and Uncles. We went for a walk outside, and I didn't want to come inside at all!

Mom and Dad picked me up after their concert, and we headed back to Knoxville. We had a long drive to Alabama the next day!

Saturday, we had Bruce Family photos to take at my great-grandmothers house. I have all sorts of cousins I didn't remember! Even a new baby cousin too. I had a great time playing with all the kids but started getting cranky at the end because I really needed a nap.
Over the weekend, I also got to visit my great-granny. She gave me coke, but I didn't like it and spit it out. Mom was glad; she wasn't there and wasn't very happy about her giving me coke! But what can you say to a great-grandmother!

That was what happened when I turned one! From now on Mom says she's just going to update my website when something exciting happens... which is usually pretty often. We'll see.
