Happy 1st Birthday Annabelle!

That's right I am 1 year old now!  

On Superbowl Sunday we had a little pre-game birthday celebration.

My friends and family gathered around and caught up before the big game.

Everyone sung Happy Birthday and my brother "helped" blow out my candle! 

Even though found out I am still acquiring my taste for cake...

It was a great way to celebrate such a special year!

The next morning was my actual birthday! So we helped Mama make a pancake breakfast. 

 Good thing my brother was there again to blow out the candle... I was very scared of the flame!

I did however really enjoy my pancakes! 

Then since there was a big snow storm on my birthday we bundled up and went outside to play!

It was a great day!

Some updates now that I am a big 1 Year old:

In the last 2 months I have really found my personality!

I am quick to tell you when I want something by pointing...

And when I don't!

I love music! I "shake it" when I hear it playing. I also do this when I am happy and excited!

I am a really good eater! But I have been wanting to feed myself lately which is a bit messy....

I have started to be able to participate in fun big kid activities now and I think I am so cool!

I love anything my brother does and love when he teaches me new games!

Last but not least I am officially using steps! 

Watch out world I am now a real toddler!
