Baby and His Dogs: July 2005

4th of July

I was really busy the 4th of July weekend. We went out everyday because there was something planned.

I went to a housewarming and met another baby girl there, and I was shy around her.

I went to Gabriel's first birthday, which was a lot of fun, and Uncle Philip had me making funny noises with my mouth all weekend.

I went to a BBQ, and afterwards I saw a couple fireworks, and I was amazed by them. But I couldn't see more because I was SOO tired from staying up past my bedtime so my parents just put me to bed. I can't wait until next year!

Here are a few (blurry) pictures from my grandpa's camera of my birthday. There are more to come but we're still waiting....

(There's another post below that I did earlier today, so make sure to check that one out, too!)

the party room (so many people loved the balloons!)

the centerpieces were balloon monkeys because I was born in the year of the monkey

so pretty

my tired face!

Understanding What "No" Means

These next pictures show what happens when I hear mommy say "no" to me. My mommy tries not to laugh because she thinks it's so funny that I can understand what she means. It confuses me, though, because she starts out all serious and stern but then ends up laughing and smiling and taking pictures!!
