2006 began with Papa, Mama and I ringing in the new year…

with a big bang! I loved playing Papa’s drums…and on January 6th I ‘officially’ started crawling!

In February, my hair started to develop it’s own personality…maybe Elvis really is alive!

In March, Mama and I both turned another year older…(& maybe a little sassier toO!) and on March 6th I said to heck with all this crawling business and took my first steps.

In April, Uncle Nathan and cousin Aby came for a visit. I had been walking a few weeks, but man cousin Aby was fast! Whoa…check out my belly!

In May, I grew, my hair grew and I loved to read books to myself. We also drove to MI to see Grandma Lily and Grandpa Bill!

In June, we were Henry Vilas Zoo groupies…I think some of the animals even knew my name and Gran’Mary and Grandpa Dave came for a visit.

In July…well, the hat really says it all!

In August, my hair got really curly…I walked around like Beeker from all of the new teeth and I became obsessed with black cats.

In September, (I’m such a hottie!) Mama took one of her best pictures yet…

In October, I became a certified F-117 pilot…okay, well, maybe just a pretend F-117 pilot!

By November I was a little overexposed to Einstein…and waited and waited and waited (still waiting) for the SNOW…

and in December, Papa surprised me with my very own drum set! (Don’t forget to bring your ear plugs when you come over for a visit!) I also got to ride on an airplane all the way to OKC! What do I have to say about that? “MORE AIRPLANES”

Now that it’s 2007…well, the shirt says it all! I hope you had a wonderful start to 2007. Who knows what crazy things this year will bring…and someday, hopefully soon, we’ll see snow! Have a great week!
