For Brandon's birthday his parents bought him some gear for his quad. It feels a lot better to know that he is safe when he rides. When he got home from the store he was soo excited. Now all he wants to do is get out and ride. Not much different from before.

I have to admit though, he looks real cute on his quad.

At least I thought he did, but Skye had a different opinion. She saw her daddy and did not have a clue who he was. In fact, when she saw him she tried to crawl under her crib. She was real scared until he took off his helmet and she realized who he was.

Also, for his birthday he got a DVD recorder. It took a trip back to Best Buy, talking to every employee that worked there, and three hours to figure out how to get the thing to work. We still aren't sure about all its functions, but we'll just learn as we go.

This last week was very entertaining. Skye had a friend over to swim in her pool that she had recieved for her birthday.

They had alot of fun splashing in the water.

Then on Friday we left to Mexico to celebrate Brandon's birthday. Here is Skye on the ride there. I don't know what we would do without her blankie and her toys.

Here she is getting ready to go downtown and walk the streets.

She always has fun when we go and this time she took her new turtle floatie. It has a canopy on top to block her from the sun. I love it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY!

Skye's Birthday

We celebrated Skye's birthday with her cousin Novali. Their birthdays are only two days apart, so it worked out perfect. We had the party at the community pool in my brother's neighborhood. So we got our things together and left to the party.

Lot's of people came. We swam, ate, and had fun. It did get a little scary towards the end of the party. The clouds got dark and it got kind of windy. We did not know what would happen, and thank goodness the weather got better. The clouds moved right on by and because it was pretty hot outside the wind felt good on those who did'nt go swimming. All in all I think that everything turned out quite well.

Unfortunately, not everyone was able to come to the party so Skye opened some of her gifts before the party. She caught on real quick on how to open them.

As soon as she realized that there was something in the bags she ripped out all the tissue paper as if she had done this for years.

Thank you everyone for celebrating Skye's first birthday with us.

She's ONE

Skye turned one at the end of August. She gets more and more beautiful everyday. She has such a great personality. Giggling and smiling all day(for the most part).

Recently, she has begun to walk on her own. She's still very clumsy, but she gets better and better each time.

During the day she keeps herself busy playing with her toys,

or getting into things that she is not suppost to.

It seems as though everyday she learns something knew. She gives kisses, high fives, drinks from a straw, and so many other cute things.
