Belle's Birthday Extravaganza

On May 3rd, Isabella turned the big ONE! We celebrated by having a birthday party on Saturday, May 2nd, at our house with family and all of her little friends.  Here are some pics of Belle eating her cake and a video of the day:








Belle is walking very well now, and even has started making attempts at running.  Although she tends to fall face first into the ground more often than not during these attempts.  Her new thing now is to climb into everything, buckets, laundry baskets,etc.  She's also trying out lots of new words.   She can now say, Dada, Mama, Cat, Cracker (sounds more like Caca though), Dog, Bye Bye, Hi, Baby, and Shoe.  Those are the ones I can recall at the moment. Sometimes she'll say a word for one day, and then I'll never hear it again.  Her favorite word is still by far, Dada.  I'm just glad she's finally saying Mama, even if it's only when she's upset.
