It's MY Party!

We have a 1 year old in the HOUSE! Josie turned 1 on June 8th, 2008. Where did the last year go?! Here is what Josie is into right now:
Loves sleeping with a blanket (that's what 1 year olds do!)
Enjoys waving Hello and Bye-Bye
Continues to be a book worm, she enjoys being read to and "reading" on her own
Anything we eat Josie wants to eat
She knows a few sign language signs, "all done" is her favorite
She loves to walk around the house if you hold her hands (she is FAST too!) and
Stairs have become her new best friend

Vacation

Our first BIG family vacation was to beautiful North & South Carolina. We spent a few days in North Carolina for Wiese's wedding then ventured south to explore sunny Charleston. We fell in love. The views were gorgeous and (more importantly) the food was amazing. We did a horse carriage ride, walking tours, shopping, swimming at the pool and at the beach. Everyone in Charleston is so friendly that they all stop to talk or just say hello. Soon Josie thought everyone on the street walking in our general direction was coming to say hello to her. So she waved with both hands to all her "fans". Her two front teeth decided to break their way through the first two days. Even with that going on she was a trooper.
