Ameilya turned One

I think I haven't posted about this because I just can't come to terms with the fact that I am now the mother of a one year old and (technically) toddler! There's no way my baby is big enough to be one yet! Oh well, the calendar tells me she in fact turned one a little over a month ago. Yes, I'm way behind. As usual ;)
We have had a pretty busy few weeks, between our car breaking down (twice with a third repair needing to be done), a birthday party for the cutest one year old I know, Tyler's graduate class and choir rehearsals for Hymns of Thanksgiving, the 6 violin/viola lessons I teach every week and extreme couponing we have been pretty much swamped. I'll try to have as few words as possible though and get straight to the pictures ;)

Ameilya turned one year old. Her monthly pictures didn't turn out quite as well as I would have liked as our baby is a very busy girl. But here they are for the record!

At 12 months, Ameilya was saying rara, buh buh, dada, nuh nuh, hi and had just learned to say papa. She loved pancakes and wasn't thrilled with the cake at her birthday ;)
