Adorable me next to the beautiful hydrangea on our seaside vacation to St. Brieu s. Mer. Don't I look relaxed?
Adorable me going native. Hey, if the Frenchies take off their tops, I say why not go the Full Monty?
Adorable me doing what I do.
Have I mentioned how exhausting being adorable can be? Luckily, I have in my employ a skilled mommy/sherpa for just these types of scenarios. Stay tuned for more speed blogging...
...and playing in the Wendy house at the pub.
Oooh, this is interesting. A potty. Can somebody tell me what this is used for?
Hydrangeas! My Aunt Kate loves hydrangeas. This photo is for you. :)
Who doesn't love tickles?
Don't worry, there is even more! Stay tuned.
Getting more confident but still love to hold Mommy's hands.
Me and the guys.
I like to walk. I even cheer myself on yelling "go! go! go!" as I walk.
Sometimes, I forget that I haven't yet walked by myself. What is this? A flower? Must stretch out a little further to touch it...
Mostly, I haven't walked yet because I am a very cautious little girl. I'm just not ready to let go of mom and dad.
On the other hand, I do other things. I like to smooch. I make a big mmmmmmmm sound and then go in for a wet one.
I feed myself just about anything I can get my hands on. I try to use the spoon sometimes when mom isn't paying attention but that is trickier than it looks.
I am saying all sorts of things. "What's that?" "Hello!" "Sasson." "Go!" "Mama." "Dada." "Nite, nite." "Bye, bye." "Blast off!" "Row, row, row" (your boat). And other stuff that I can't remember right now.
I love, love, love my brother. 
So really, what's the rush to walk? I am having so much fun just being me.
It's my birthday today and I am ONE! I can hardly sit still to take a photo because the world is so interesting and fun.
But I am getting very tall and I speak too. I say 'mama,' 'dada,' 'nitenite,' 'peekaboo,' 'ssss' (for Saxon) and my personal favorite 'hello'.
I love to say 'hello.' Every morning when my mom comes in the get me up, I say to her over and over, "hello, hello, hello!" I say it to Saxon and my dad and even Kari. I say hello to myself in the mirror. Who knew that "hello" could be such a useful word?
Saxon has promised me cupcakes later for my little party this afternoon. Stay posted for more birthday photos!
The best part of being 10 1/2 months old is living in the moment. We went somewhere and rode on big machines. Saxon got really excited and started to talk loudly about someone named "Thomas."
Mostly, I don't really know where I am going...but I do enjoy the ride.
opens the door and... 
I managed to eat two whole cupcakes and take significant bites out of three others in less than 10 minutes! 
to Saxon, we went on holiday. I am not really sure what that means but here I am in my car seat going somewhere.
This is usually what happens after 10 minutes in my car seat.
Next thing I know, we are there...right?
Does a holiday mean tht I get in my swimsuit and play with my feet?
Or maybe it means getting in my stroller and riding around to different places?
I did go to a sandy place called a beach but, it was a bit too sunny for me.
I liked riding in the grocery cart for the first time! 
But my favorite part of my holiday was traveling with my mom like this. 
So if this is a holiday, it is really quite nice.
To tell the truth, it wasn't very different from life in London. I slept in my parents' bed. 
I watched my brother run around, jump up and down, yell, scream, sob and then do it all over again. 
Best of all, I traveled snuggle class, my favorite way to tour.
Two tiny thumbs up for Wales!
