| The birthday boy! |
I can't believe you are one! I don't know how, when or where this year went! You were a tiny baby and now you are one. You are so cute! Right now you are almost walking. We practiced a little while ago with Daddy and you almost had it!
You mimic everything. Today I brushed my teeth and gave you your tooth brush...so we brushed together. I finished, got the brush, combed my hair, put it away and they started on something else. You put down the toothbrush, got the hairbrush out of the toiletry bag, and started brushing your hair; like if you did it everyday! I just smiled!
Yesterday we were with grandma and grandpa (los abuelitos) and grandma zipped up her purse. You just unzipped it and took out everything you wanted. I zipped it back up...thinking that it was just coincidence...you unzipped it again, and again. It turned into a game. Everything is a game right now.
You are very independent. You want to eat by yourself, you exert your will...like if you don't want to wear socks, you don't...or you try really hard to take them off.
You are also trying to communicate with us all the time. You talk and talk and talk. You also climb everything, get into everything, take out everything that is put away that is within your reach...etc. etc.
Mami gets really tired by the end of the day! It's nonstop fun!! And it really is fun! I love seeing you grow and grow. I love how everyday you learn a million things. Most of all, I love how you imitate me in everything!
We have so much fun everyday. The last week was a busy week because we had all the grandparents here and we were planning your party and dedication. It was so much fun to plan!
The weekend started with your dedication at church. It was such a wonderful moment for both mami and daddy. The thing that we want most in this world is for you to love Jesus and be really close to him throughout your life. By dedicating you, we put you in His hands to lead your life for ever. It was a really special moment for me.
Back to your party:

| The main table! |
I love to plan parties, but this one was the most fun! We had a circus theme and it turned out really good. We had all your close friends and family and were so happy for you.
The cake turned out so much better than I hoped!
We had balloons, giant balls, wagon rides, a ball pit, yummy food (pizza, different salads, yummy snacks), and one of my favorites...a photo booth.
