Happy Birthday Karis Marie!

Miss Karis Marie turned One Year Old today!!! My baby is one and *almost* walking! Here are pictures of her taking a few steps last night. She can take about 3 to 4 steps before she falls on her bottom. But she is getting good at getting back up. I don't want my baby to walk!!! But Dustin and I were clapping and saying Yay! everytime she stood up to walk a few steps. So now, when she stands up, if we don't clap, she lets us know by clapping and saying Yay! Hehehe

So we woke up this morning and Karis got to open her presents. She got a pop-up toy from Sierra and Ruby. A Pooh-bear ride-on toy from Mommy and Daddy. And a baby doll from Grandma Patty and Papa Donn. She loves all her toys, and knows that they are hers!!! She will let Sierra or Ruby know if they are playing with one of her toys. Here she is getting ready to play with her pop up toy.

And opening gifts

My favorite baby doll! She giggles like me!

Another present

OOH! A pop-up toy!

Care Bear Cake! We put the cake in front of Karis expecting her to dig in. She went to grab it, got just to the edge of the icing, and then took her hands away. She didn't want to get all messy. She wouldn't even eat the cake with her hands, Mommy had to feed it to her. And when I took a break to get a bite of my own cake, she promptly handed me her fork! :D

Watch Out, they all have wheels now!
