Just after my birthday, maybe 8 days after, I started to walk. Yes, you heard me… WALK! Yippee! Finally I got my legs and feet working together. It is THE BEST! I love to walk all around the house, just making sure each room is still there. Picking up teddies from one room and taking them to another. Wearing down a groove in the floor.
This... is... awesome!
It’s all happening now. I’m getting bigger, taller, I’m growing out of size 1′s, my hair is longer. In fact, check it out. It’s just like my Mum’s when she was my age.
Business in front, party at the back.
I love exploring and getting into everything, like Daddie’s glasses, Mummy’s sunnies and my new seat.
Oh man I look good.
Mummy and I went to the shops just before Easter, and when I was there I saw the biggest bunny in the world! My eyes widened, my arms went out and I hugged and patted him for about 15 minutes. I love him!
I love him so much I drooled a little in the 2nd photo
But the thing I love most are my books. I just grab them down from the shelf, take them to Mum and Dad to read to me, or I just flick through the pages all on my own. They are so pretty and interesting.
They’re helping me learn lots of words too, which I’ll tell you about next time 
Not right now darling, I'm reading.

I turned one! One one one one one! I’m big!
On my actual birthday, all of my grandparents arrived in Sydney. Memme, Papadoodles, Dallie & Pop, all came to my house and gave me lots of cuddles and kisses… oh, and presents, hee hee.
I'm one lucky girl!
You’d think that would be enough, but there was more to come. I had a party! A party in the park, with as many of my family and friends that could make it. We ate yummy food like cheese and vegemite sandwiches, rolls, biscuits, chicken, fairy bread, and… check out my birthday cake!
Smarties make it better!
I really enjoyed the sun, trees, wind, cuddles and especially the grass, because there was plenty of space for people to walk me around. I couldn’t walk on my own yet, I needed my hands held. But I tell you what, all that walking can tucker a little girl out!
Did I miss anything?
So I didn’t quite make it to pass the parcel, but I only really wanted the wrapping paper anyway.
Thank you everyone for all of my presents and to my Mum, Dad and grandparents for making all the yummy party food and for making me feel so very special.

February was REALLY busy! Yeah yeah, I know I say that all the time, but it really was! I was getting faster and faster with my crawling, working on my walking feet, plus I was getting ready to turn ONE!
Mum and I took lots of trips to the shops, but sitting quietly in my pram just isn’t my thing any more. It’s much better getting places by myself and there is so much space in shopping centres, so I like to explore them. Like the time I took off through the aisles of Target, happily giggling and tugging on clothes and pulling things off shelves. Then Mum rudely picked me up and put me back in my stroller… NOT FAIR! You can still see the tears in my eyes as Mummy tried to comfort me with a bottle.
I thought I didn't need Mummy, but then I realised I wanted milk
I also had lots of adventures with my friends in the park. We are always at the playground now, because we like to play and the weather is nice. No more cosy coffee shops for those chatty mummies. Our playground has a sandpit, with a water tap for soggy sand play. Wet sand feels AWESOME! I love to get it everywhere, eat it and sit right in the middle of it! Yummmmm!
Gritty and dirty... just how I like my vegemite toast.
I think I must have grown my funny bone this month too, because I’m really funny and I have great comic timing just like my Dad.
Checking the beer / my best smile / hair modelling / eating elmo's head
And all month, I liked nothing more than being helped to walk EVERYWHERE!
My top says it all!
So there you go. Pretty cool huh? I’ll write a super birthday special for you next.
