Happy Birthday Franny!

Our little Franny is one! This year has been so much fun. We don't know what we did (or talked about) before she came along. Here's a Franny update: She is a really happy baby. She walks everywhere now. She can understand and sign back: food, water, tubby(bath), brush teeth and book. She can say Duck, Hi, Wow, Uh-Oh and Daddy. She loves to fake laugh whenever she hears anyone else laughing. She loves to dance. I haven't gotten any great footage yet, but man, can she move! Most of all, she is really social. She recognizes all of her cousins now and gets so excited when she sees them. I won't bore anyone with all of the other stuff she's doing. Just read "What to expect the first year" to find out.


Waiting for Franny

She sure growed up fast, didn't she!


She's been blowing her candle out all week. When it came time to show the masses...no cigar


Thanks everyone for the cute presents!


Here is some footage of her walking (for those of you who haven't seen her yet)
and one of her first words


Here are a couple of her signs...and more walking

Your hair is adorable- Darren loves long hair way to much- I like it short and long- but wow- it looks great.

oh she is the cutest! so fun! my emme only signs when she is in desperate need or when she wants a laugh...she knows so many, but only uses them when it doesn't apply. i just think it's cute when a little one can sign! so helpful too. Franny's signs are adorable.
