More walking and1st birthday portraits

Oh what a fun weekend!!! Courtney's birthday (real one) was yesterday, so I made her a little shirt that says "It's My 1st Birthday" and we went to get here portraits taken for the first time. She did great! She was quite a ham and of course we got more pictures than we know what to do with! This first one is her 'showing her guns' - it's a trick her Daddy taught her.

After her portraits we came home to tornado warnings for the evening and she practiced walking some more. The bottom of this post has some better video of her walking. I am once again a bad mommy and didn't have the video camera charged so I missed quite a bit of it. She was taking 5 or 6 steps to get her baby and walked around the entire kitchen. As she was walking around I was looking at her so proudly but then I thought "do i really want her to be walking already....no, I don't...STOP!" but it's too late. Either way, we're super excited and very proud of our little baby girl.

For family - if you want any of these pictures to make your walls look better, or to decorate a table, stand or even a room; let me know and I'll get you what you want. :-)

We hope you all had a wonderful mothers day (Sunday if you aren't a mother); we missed a lot of you in connection group. Paul invited everyone out to the 'sticks' to our house some time in the summer. Plan now though, we live far far far away. :-)

Have a GREAT week! We are looking forward to getting back to the gym, baseball games and shots for Courtney. Ok, maybe not so much looking forward to the shots, but the rest for sure.
