Two years!

My blog is now two years old. Oh, and so am I.

Happy Birthday!

We had a great party where lots of friends came over to play and my grandparents all visited.

I couldn't contain my excitement when I started to receive gifts.

I was prince for a day, even though I continued to wear the crown for a few more days.

My friend E. was nice enough to give me his old Maillot Jaune, which I have since proudly worn on many bike rides.

Birthday party

Feliz Cumpleaños

Okay, so I'm not quite one year old yet (my birthday is on Thursday), but that didn't stop us from partying a few days early! Some friends and relatives came over for a good time.

Playing with the big girls

Tissues

On the floor

In your face

When it came time for me to eat cake for the first time everyone stared at me while I sat in my high chair. Maybe it made me a little nervous because I didn't much feel like eating cake.

Well, today I gave the cake another try and this time I loved it!

Anyway, thanks so much to everyone, especially Mommy, for such a great birthday party! Can we have another one on Thursday?

Los tres Guillermos

(the three Williams)

Mommy and two of her good friends from high school each had a baby boy named William in the past 6½ months. Here's the first two of us:

Melissa & Ashley

The third William was just born two days ago. Welcome to the world, William. We should get together sometime so I can show you around.

Puppy

Dear Mom and Pop,

I would really like a puppy dog. I promise I would take care of it and you wouldn't have to do a thing!

If you could get back to me on this issue, I would really appreciate it

Thanks.

Love,

William

More food

I'm starting to get the hang of eating solid foods, but it's still a little weird for me. Here I am showing my friend Ashlynn how it's done.

I'll have what he's having

After eating I need to wash it down with some water. Man, that stuff tastes bland.

Baby's (second) first Christmas

The best gift

We spent the few days around Christmas in Peoria with Grandma Nan and Grandpa Rick. They proved once again that I am indeed spoiled.

Stocking stuffer

I have a bunch of new clothes and some kick-ass monkey boots.

Meli and Will

Most importantly, with four big people in the house someone was always available to hold me and/or carry me around. You there...

Will and Grandma Nan

After the gifts I saw my first snowstorm.

...from inside.

Will watches his first snowstorm

Then I got to see Mom's friend Amy.

Melissa and Amy

...and her husband Ben too (but it's hard to get excited about that :)

Will and Ben

Last but not least, I played around with my new (to me) toy.

Jump

I assume this Christmas thing (whatever it is) is going to happen once a week or so from now on, right?

My BFF

My BFF was born yesterday. Her name is Ashlynn and she is very tiny. Mama took me to go visit her in the hospital. I slept through most of it, and when I woke up I cried because Mama kept calling Ashlynn my "girlfriend." Yuck.
