Ok what next if she started shopping at Nordstrom at 15 months???:)

Aliyah's First Pony Ride!

You can get the Texan out of Texas but can't get the Texan out of her!!!

Aliyah took off on her own!

Aliyah has been walking now for about a month. She started about a month after her first birthday in January, cruising furniture, walking with a walker and holding on to hands. We were also able to encourage her to walk between two people without holding on to anything. And there were times when Aliyah really wanted something and stepped across the room to get it. It seemed like (and everyone who saw her said it too) that she would be walking on her own in no time. The first day she started walking, she walked and walked and walked all day long. With a bit of running thrown in!:)

Aliyah at Mardi Gras Craft Party!

Dallas has gotten some snow today!!!

We had snow for Christmas but it wasn't anything like today so we decided to take Aliyah out to take some pictures:) She scooped up a generous amount of snow and ate it:)

Raising Our Little One in the Big World!

I am a little late posting Aliyah's 1st Birthday pictures! Let's just say life has been a little hectic.

We had a wonderful birthday for Aliyah on Dec 13/2009. My brother Sammy and my uncle Asfaw were able to come from DC & MI to see Aliyah turning one.

We were all amazed how big she has gotten...

words Aliyah knows so far...

Aliyah repeats pretty much any word you say to her for the most part. She is learning how to say more words everyday... but she is still crawling
