Shay and Her Birthday
I know I've been counting down the days this last month thinking "where is the time going" thinking she is about to turn a year old and now it is here. Wow, so much has changed and she has grown so much! This weekend we went to Blackfoot to celebrate her cousin's baptism and joined in with a birthday for her since all the family was together already. I made cupcakes for her and we gave her some new pretty dresses, she also got toys and puzzles from other family. The toys are free game for Claire to play with since Shay uses all her toys but they both get time to play with it and move onto a new thing after a while.
Shay has officially taken her first step while not holding on to anything and likes playing step/fall towards you if you have her try to walk. She also now hates car rides and gets very bored over 3 hours so we have to find more entertaining things for her to do. This cutie loves to smile and giggle when she is tickled and likes to attack and climb all over us when we are in attacking range. When she isn't stopped by Claire, she likes to put her toys into boxes and containers then dumping them out and doing it all over again. She is now saying dada, mama, and her own form or more which sounds a lot like momo but I can tell she is wanting more because she usually has just seen Claire get a cup of milk.
Claire
This cutie was very excited to get to go to the park for the first time in a looooooong time since the weather was decent this past week. Of course it got really cold this weekend, but the park was fun for a day and we will get there again more and more in the next month. Claire loves when we go to the gym because of her friends there, and she gets to have time usually away from Shay. Apparently, when it isn't busy, Shay gets to come into the main room and Claire gets mad she is involved. Claire was helpful when opening the presents for Shay and enjoyed time with her cousins and all the toys she doesn't see very often at Grandma and Grandpa Bell's house. As much as she seems to be annoyed with Shay, I think she is learning to love her by giving her good night kisses every night, but it could be she's just happy she gets to stay up later.
Chris
As much of a pain driving is, it is nice to drive with Chris and get to talk about our plans and future especially right now when there is so much to plan! When we first got married it was talking about the future family and kids we will have and now we talk about the move to California, where we want to end up when school is over, and farther into the future. It is a great feeling getting those moments together and knowing we both want so much more life together. Our daily work out dates are even better because we see each others improve while encouraging and helping each other, it is the best thing to have support in our hobbies. I know he makes me a better person with his own determination to stay healthy.
