One is Fun!

The Birthday Cupcake Herself!


Wow! How that first year went by quickly! Well, everything after the first 6 weeks... the first 6 weeks were wonderful misery, but extremely long... I am just amazed more and more every day at the vast amount of knowledge Lucy is attaining. Her vocabulary is enormous. Today she said both 'please' and 'thank you', in addition to 'all done' and 'Gus' (our dog). At least, we think that is what she is saying - and I am sticking to it. What she lacks in motor, she definitely makes up for in verbal. We celebrated her birthday over the weekend with our family and friends. Thank you to all who helped commemorate her special day... and an extreme gift of graciousness is bestowed upon both Grandmas, Aunt Julie, and Aunt Stacie who helped clean (I love you all even more now!). Here are some pictures from the party. Enjoy, and cheers to what is ahead!


Ice cream b-day treat at The Center


After our one-year well visit (and shots, yuck!), we had to play in the bluebonnets.

The homemade sweets (more cakes and pies were added to this table later - enough to make your sweet tooth ache in agony!).


She loves this table from Grandpa Tom and Grandma Jackie. Definitely a winner!

Cousins!

Another Present Strikes Again

Uncle Mark outdid himself, yet again. I can't wait for her to grow into this....

Your little ladybug loves you, Uncle Mark!

Almost 1!

Lucy is fast approaching her first birthday - must to my disbelief. I am sure this week will be filled with memories of last year at this time. Cody keeps mentioning the wonderful food he ate while I suffered at the hospital - so much for his memories. Anyway, Lucy has a big thank you for Uncle Mark, who sent Lucy her very first birthday present. Lucybug loves her Uncle Mark!


I love my ladybug pillow!
new car seat... she looks so grownup!
Helping Mommy fold laundry - although I think she is more interested in her cheerios.

Happy Chinese Easter Gelato!

We have been busy over the past few weeks, and it doesn't look like life is going to slow down any time soon. Many firsts happened, so we decided to share them with you! Enjoy the barrage of pictures. From Daddy's birthday chinese feast, to sharing Italian icecream over a beautiful holiday weekend, Lucy has had an eventful time.


Daddy was tired, so he decided to take a nap
...but Lucy didn't want him to nap alone.
Lucy enjoying her first fortune cookie during Daddy's birthday dinner. I have never seen a man salivating so profusely for Chinese.

Daddy actually sharing his gelato. He must love his daughter because he never shares any with me!

Happy Easter from the Klement family!
