Our cousin, Addyson, visited this weekend...we had so much fun! We wanted to show her our favorite park, so we went to Mulberry Park.
Bella really wanted to keep up with us...mom says she probably will be able to in a month or so:)
Addyson looked so pretty for our birthday party!
Bella is now 1 and I'm 3! We had fun celebrating our birthday with our family! Bella ate the whole cupcake, but I prefer to just eat the frosting and sprinkles.
Bella loved her birthday cupcake! She had it all over and even had to take a bath afterwards:)
She'd squish the frosting between her fingers before eating it.
We got more presents than mom and dad know what to do with...
After I opened a new princess dress, I wanted to immediately undress and put it on (but mom made me wait until all my presents were opened).
Bella really just wanted to eat the wrapping paper, but she does love all her new toys!
Mom says she loves it when I say, "I don't believe it!"
Uncle Eric gave Bella a pickle for the first time...she really liked it!
We got to visit with Addyson this weekend too...she came to our party, but we also spent most of our weekend with her. She loved chasing me around! You could tell Bella wanted to run with us...any day now...
Mom wanted to get ice cream on her and Bella's birthday. Bella cried when it was all gone...
Here we are at my swim lessons. Mom reads with Bella while I swim with my teachers. 
I love splashing around and kicking...maybe I'll put my face in the water next time! I did blow bubbles though and float on my back.
My teacher's name is Isabelle..so I feel really comfortable with her:)
My birth family always sends packages for Christmas and birthdays, so here I am opening the gift they sent for Bella (mom tried to get me to stop so that she could open it, but I was on a roll).
I loved everything I got, but decided to have a brief moment of a tantrum...I'm not really even sure why? Mom says I pretty cute even when I have a fit!
We got the cutest outfits to wear on the fourth of July and I think I look pretty cool in these...
Bella's playing with Daddy's birthday balloon...
Just some cute photos of me and Bella:)
Bella and I are having a family birthday party this weekend, but we celebrated on my actual birthday as well...I had a play date with all my friends at the park and ate 5 cupcakes that day (mostly just the icing on all the cupcakes though).
Here I am helping mom make my birthday cupcakes. She always says I'm a good helper!
Today is Bella's birthday (and mom's), so we went to the zoo with Emilee and Mary. Even though we got rained on and had to leave earlier than planned, we had a great time. I think Bella liked the penguins the best!
Bella isn't saying many words yet, but she points at everything and wants to know the names of things. Here she is pointing to the sea lions.
We were waiting for the dolphin show to begin and even though Bella stretched her morning nap...she loved it:)
Can you believe it was 65 and cool on July 9th! Mom had to put a blanket over Bella to keep her warm.
Birthday princess!
