One-Year Anniversary

Today marks the one-year anniversary of this blog.

Coincidentally, it also marks the one-year anniversary of me. Yup, that's right. This baby ain't a baby anymore. I'm officially (as of about an hour ago) one year old.

Where did the time go? It seems like only yesterday I was meeting Mommy and Daddy for the first time. Man, they have changed so much in a year. When I first met Daddy he couldn't change a diaper without using nine wipes, two diapers and a change of clothes for both of us. As for Mommy... she's a lot smaller now.

So far the birthday has been awesome. Auntie Megan called me to wish me a happy day, and I got a card in the mail from Great Grandma Lorna and Great Grandpa Charlie. It had some good advice, some money (which I just let Daddy have - he takes care of my finances) and these tiny little rubber things that Daddy blew into and they became balloons. Good thing he is full of hot air.

Daddy also let me watch this TV show called Sesame Street, which was awesomely awesome. Usually I don't pay attention to TV, but they have this host named Elmo who is probably the funniest dude I have ever seen. He could totally win Last Comic Standing. Best of all, he has a voice that isn't annoying at all. Daddy said if I am really good this year I could maybe watch it again next year on my birthday.

Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Rich are coming down tonight, and rumor has it they are bringing presents too. Hard to believe, since I figured they had bought everything in the world for Christmas.

Happy Birthday Claire!!!!

I can't believe you're a year old already!!! Wow how time flies!!!! I still need to see you in person sometime when you hit up the IC. I actually live in North Liberty now and work an occasional men's b-ball game - so maybe you should check one of those out at some point.

Have a great day and tell your rents I say hey! :)

HAPPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR CLAIRE. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU.

Since we are not there in person to sing with everyone, someone will have to sing a little louder so it feels like Grandma Sara and Grandpa Mike are there to wish you a very special BIRTHDAY. LOVE YOU DEAR CLAIRE.
