And she's off!

Watch "Nico walking like crazy" on YouTube

It's been so fun watching Nico gain confidence with walking over the past month since she took her very first steps. From timidly taking a few cruising steps while holding onto the couch all the way to getting up and taking off in whatever direction she desires, this girl is now on the move - watch out world, here she comes!

Just a side note with her outfit in this little clip. Although I know my mother would not approve, it is most certainly a typical "we're indoors for the day" outfit: tshirt, cloth diaper, baby legs. Keeps her warm in the air conditioned house and makes diaper changes easy. Oh, and yes, she's chewing on a dish towel. She was kindly helping me throw the laundry all over the floor and picked this particular towel to cling on to today.

On the phone already

Nico is available to talk anytime - she's really got a lot to say!

Nana came to play!

We loved having Nana visit! We had a busy time together - we cooked a lot, Jason cleaned a lot, and Nico walked a lot! We went down to Key West where we visited the southernmost point, the butterfly gardens, Mallory Square, and NOAA's eco-discovery center. We stopped by the Dolphin Research Center on the way back up to Islamorada for a picnic lunch and some fun times watching the dolphins. We hope to see you again soon, Nana!

Swimming

Here's a little clip of Nico at swim lessons the other day. Sorry it's sideways!

One Year Photo Shoot

We lucked out and had an awesome sandcastle as a backdrop for her cake smash. If only she would have really smashed the cake!

What a beautiful one year old she is!

The night before the party....

This happened! She's also been cutting molars recently so needless to say, things have been busy around here.

Second 1st Birthday Party

The pool party in Vero was great! Lots of friends came to help Nico celebrate! I think she's starting to get the hang of this birthday thing.
