Chasing Charli

I had to post this video of me chasing my girl after the last post I posted because its just soo funny.

Also, Charli got some crayons and a coloring book today. She was very happy.

This is her first work of art :)

And her second, on her pillow.

This is the last post today. I'll leave everyone alone.

My baby is growing too fast!

Its been quite a summer! Im ready for fall and cool weather to get here. In fact tomorrow, Sept. 1, I'm setting out all of my fall decorations, in hopes that seeing it will trick my mind into thinking it is cool outside. Perhaps, I will even buy some fall leaves and sprinkle them in my yard, so that when I look out the window it will feel like fall.       No.      I'm am decorating tomorrow though.

Welp, I no longer have a baby. I have a toddler. At least I'm assuming that is what I have to call her now that she is toddling (walking) EVERYWHERE. The day before her birthday she just decided she was going to walk and she did. Now, I sleep very well at night because she wears me out. Luckily, the drawers and cabinet doors are older and hard to open, I won't have to baby proof those for a while!

Charli turned one exactly a week ago. Wait, is it Tues today? (pause) Nope, just checked my calender it's wed. Let me redo that first sentence. Charli turned one exactly a week and one day ago. I don't like it. My baby is growing up. (tear) We had a little party for my little girl that was duck themed and she loved it. I don't really know if she did, I don't think she knew what was going on. But, I loved it :) Here are some pics:      (unedited b/c I am lazy)

Charli's duck cake made by Dawn

The yummy cupcakes! (also made by Dawn) and ketsup

Lol not sure what face the bday girl is making.

Don't have to buy anything for Charli for a while (thumbs up)

She wasn't really into eating the cake, more so hugging and kissing it.

Until it was put into her mouth

Even the dogs wished her a Happy Birthday

There is my big girl :)

 

I'll leave you with a final picture of her toddling. She can go pretty fast when I chase her. 

Its a game, she thinks it funny.
