Busy, Busy
3 Day weekend = FUN!
Penny played with Luke on Saturday.
On Sunday, we went to visit Pop and Todd,
And Nana Lou!
And on Monday, we spent some time with Kate, Gavin and Allyson.
Gavin and Penny had a great time playing together. Gavin shared his toys and mac 'n cheese with Penny :) 
We are so lucky that Penny has such awesome playmates to grow up with!
Hope you enjoyed your 3 day weekend! love & slobbers, PennyFriday, February 18, 2011
A great week!
Penny got to spend Monday morning with Grandma and Grandpa. We had a great visit with them over Penny's birthday weekend and were sad to see them head back to St. Louis. 
She asked them to be her Valentine :) They said YES!
Mommy and Daddy had a great time with Penny on Monday afternoon. We both enjoyed our day off work and our extra time with the Pennster.
Penny modeled one of her new birthday outfits for daycare on Tuesday.
And on Wednesday, I got to stay home with Penny again! We had her one year doctor's visit in the morning. She weighs 20 lbs. 1 oz. and is 30 inches long.

And on Wednesday, I got to stay home with Penny again! We had her one year doctor's visit in the morning. She weighs 20 lbs. 1 oz. and is 30 inches long. After the doctor, Penny and I went to the mall to ride the carousel. Mommy loves carousels, so I was excited to take Penny for her first ride.
She loved it! She cheered as we went up and down and patted her horse the entire ride. She also flirted with the mall walkers and danced to the music while we were shopping in New York and Co. A Miley Cyrus song came on and Penny smiled like crazy and bopped her head to the music. 
After talking with the doctor, we decided to quit the bottle and switch to sippy cups full time. Wednesday afternoon was a little rough, but by Thursday, she was a sippy cup champ! The weather has been unseasonably warm this week, so we headed outside for a little play time.
On Thursday, Penny and I met up with my cousin Veronnica at the King of Prussia Mall. She was in town for a work training. We had a great time shopping with her!
Today, we were able to go to the playground on our way home from school. Penny loves the swings!
Daddy met us at the playground on his way home :)
We had such a great afternoon. It'll be cold again tomorrow, so we're anxiously awaiting spring weather and our next trip to the playground!
Have a great weekend! love, Penny

Cake- Take 2
Aunt Missy bought Penny a cookie monster cupcake, so we let her have it tonight. 
We think she has the hang of it now!

Cake- Take 1
Nana made Penny's lady bug birthday cakes. 
They turned out just perfectly!
Penny has never had cake before and she was a little overwhelmed when everyone sang happy birthday to her. She wasn't quite sure what to do with her cake. 
So, mommy helped her out with the fork.
And, eventually she dug in.

Being the icing lover that I am, I was a little nervous that my Penny wasn't going to love it for herself, but she did a great job!
Penny's birthday party
Thank you to all our friends and family who came out to celebrate Penny's 1st birthday! She had such a great time at her party. Before the party, Penny hung out with her grandparents and took a little nap.
When she woke up, we dressed her up in her lady bug gear and let her run around like crazy for the afternoon.
And, she had such a great time playing with all her friends!

Miss Penny is one! She had a great birthday! She spent her morning with her school friends. They made her the cutest birthday card filled with colorful hand prints! Mommy & Daddy brought some pizza to school at lunch time and shared some cookies after nap time.

Penny Jeanne is our big girl! This year went by so quickly. It's hard to believe that it was only a year ago when we were holding this beautiful brand new baby in our arms. 
Now she's walking and talking and keeping us on our toes.

Penny Jeanne,
We've had the best year ever watching you grow and learn. You've helped us smile bigger, laugh louder, and play harder than we ever thought we could. We are so proud of you and can't wait to see what the future holds for you. Already, we know that you have a curiosity and persistence about you that will help you succeed in life- you want to know how things work and you'll keep trying until you figure it out. You are strong willed and independent. While it might occasionally drive mommy crazy at dinner time, we hope you use these traits to make your own decisions instead of following the crowd. You can be fearless- we hope you'll always take on new adventures and know that you can achieve whatever you put your mind to. We love you so much! You are our dream come true!

Go Red for Women
Penny & I wore our red today for American Heart Association's Go Red for Women Day. It was so great to see everyone wearing their red at work today to support such a great cause!
