Now that she's started walking, other cute things are happening. The other night she picked them up (in the den) and walked all the way over to the stairs with them.

Too cute
I'm finding lately that my baby is adorable in the most cliche of ways. When it's time for bed, if Lamby and Seahorse are downstairs Ada will frequently grab them and attempt to crawl with them upstairs. For some reason the video's not posting here :(

Christmas
Christmas with a one year old is interesting to say the least. We ended up doing Christmas in 3 parts: J's folks, just us and my family. It was nice to do it in segments so Ada didn't get overwhelmed by all the presents. I must say that it made it much more enjoyable.
Christmas part 1 was the same weekend as Ada's birthday, before J's folks went back home. Christmas part 2 was the afternoon before we left for Alabama. Then we had Christmas part 3 on Christmas day in Alabama.
The trip to Alabama was an interesting one as it was our first big road trip with Ada bean. Going out we split the drive over 2 days, stopping for the night in Biloxi, MS. Monday was pretty chill, we just hung out once we arrived. Tuesday night we did Christmas Eve service, then watched Planes while enjoying strawberry daiquiris (a family tradition). On Christmas Day we enjoyed opening gifts as a family for the first time in 3 years. K & M went with us on a double date to see Anchorman 2, which was our first movie since Ada's arrival. Thursday evening we went to the Montgomery Zoo to see the Zoo lights, which was lots of fun. Somehow on our return drive we managed to make it home in one day. Ada was awesome and ended up napping for quite a bit of the trip. I'm so glad we made the decision to spend the holiday out east.

One Year Old!
We made it to 1 year! I can't believe how time has flown by us. Many friends and family joined us for Ada's First Birthday party. Our theme was Dinosaur Train, complete with decorations and a dinosaur cake. J's folks came down to celebrate her birthday, and they baked and decorated the cakes. It was a lot of fun.
In the week following her birthday, Ada had her 1 year appointment. She weighed in at 18.9 lbs and was 28.25" tall. She's still on the low end of those percentiles, but we're still on the charts. We got the go ahead to let her eat just about anything. In the past few weeks we've had orange juice, whole milk, honey and even peanut butter. She loves the peanut butter!
Now that we've hit one year, I'll cut back on the updates. Now enjoy some pictures from the party.
