our baby’s 1st birthday

birthday cake Grammy made

On April 29th, Vera turned one.

Our little baby has now become a pre-toddler …. and ‘tottle’ she does! We had a wonderful time celebrating her birthday with Grammy & Grandpa (and with Nana & Pappy when we get back to GA!), balloons, gifts, and cake. She also had a fun smash cake session with Shutter Love — here’s the link!

What’s new with Vera:

Words: uh-oh, dog, woof, momma, dadda (and garbled versions of “water, all done, bye bye”)

Height/Weight: 18.8 lb, 28.5 inches

Tricks: Raising hands when asked “How Big is Vera?”, crawling around at lightning speed, emptying bookcases & drawers, pulling up on everything and anything, waving bye-bye, signing for milk, giving kisses, and dancing (head bobbing) when music plays

Things she’s are afraid of: the vacuum, the garage door opening/closing, hand driers in public restrooms
