Happy Birthday Robert!

Robert's first birthday party was so much fun! We had lots of friends and family here to celebrate Robert's big day!



















The kids had fun with the pull string pinata.


























Playing "pin the periscope on the submarine."

Robert got to have lunch at Johnny Rockets on his actual birthday. He had his first kids meal (grilled cheese), an oreo shake (a few sips), and then the waiter brought him a birthday sunday. Then the whole restaurant sang happy birthday to him! It was quite a day.































A couple of weekends ago we went to the Houston Highland games and Scottish festival. We all had a lot of fun (even though we're not Scottish.)
























Robert loves riding the carousel at the Woodlands mall. So far, he's not really afraid of anything.

Robert is growing up every day. He has taken a few cautious steps and is very good at standing on his own now. He walks very well behind his walker toy and he will walk to me sometimes if the distance is very small.
He is really picking up on the sign language now. His favorites are light and dog, but he also says daddy, all done, more, and clean up.
The funniest thing he does right now is how he dances to music. He does it with such abandon, waving his arms, clapping his hands, and shaking his hips. He likes to dance to the music that his toys play, and when the music stops, he reaches over and slams his hand down on the button to get it started again.
