We're Just Celebrating Birthdays Around Here

My sweet baby girl is growing up so quickly.  She's 13 months old today and has turned in to quite the walker.  Seriously, that is all she wants to do these days.  And, I've got to say that it's pretty much the cutest thing.  Seeing her just walk into a room like it's no.big.deal just blows my mind.  She especially loves to go walking with her Poppy.  And, she's so particular about how it happens.  She does not want to hold the whole hand...just the pointer finger.  She will physically take your hand and make it so that she is only holding your finger.  Love that girl.

Here are a few more things she's been up to:

Bike rides in the Chariot!

{Helmet on the way...}

First Hawaiian Shave Ice 

{just ice}

She learned how to climb on the bike in one night.  And, she loves it!

Today, Liv got on the bike and then Sydney pushed her around all over the house from the back.

Hysterical.

Sydney went shopping with me and my mom on Saturday 

and the second we got in the car, she did this.

And, then there's this.

Bless her sweet heart.

And, speaking of birthday celebrations....

My very dear friend, Amy, just gave birth to the most beautiful baby boy today.

Meet, Baby Ben.

{Baby Ben is Sweet Caroline's little brother.}

Congrats to Amy and Ryan and Caroline.

{Have I mentioned that babies born on the 25th are absolutely the BEST?!?!}
