Today is Alli's first birthday. I can't believe it's been a whole year since we were in the hospital experiencing the miracle of the birth of a child.
Alli has grown to be an amazing little person. She is very vocal, repeating the sounds that she hears. She is very social, always willing to meet new people and partake in new experiences. She is very happy, always smiling and laughing, even when exhausted.
Her latest interesting quirk is dinner... She has decided that the only foods she wants to eat are the ones that she can pick up and feed to herself. She does a great job with trying new things - she even ate salmon the other night! But sometimes I have a hard time thinking of things to make for her. I hate resorting to peas every night - my menu might have to change so I can incorporate more veggies that she can feed herself. We'll see how that goes.
So this past week the temperatures have been around 100 degrees. Yikes! Kinda early to be having a week like that! So we've been in the pool and Alli is really having a great time in the water. She giggles like crazy watching Bagheera swim and she loves standing on the bench in the hot tub splashing the water. We bought her a float over the weekend and she loves to float and kick in that as well. We're looking forward to a summer with lots of adventures in the pool. :)
