52 Weeks Old! AAAHHH!

Welcome to the longest post on Kami's blog!

Well, Kami has had her first Christmas and her first birthday all in one week and what a week it was. I took some time off and the Price family enjoyed each other for the holidays. We spent the night at my parents' house for Christmas Eve after clam chowder and a midnight mass with Garrett's parents. We then had breakfast with my parents and brother/sister-in-law and cousin/cousin-in-law and later had dinner with Garrett's family. Our Christmas Extravaganza continued the next day with our family Christmas and then we went to Garrett's extended family's Christmas. All throughout this Christmas experience, Kami got more toys then she ever needed or wanted.

Kami's first birthday was a lot of fun for all involved (I hope). We had about 30 people over to our house (I was not expecting all that were invited to come, but they did) for dinner, cake, and presents. She was quite a trooper and it was so much fun to have so many people over to experience our little girl and all our fun!

Enjoy all the pictures!

Here are some pictures from the Price Family Christmas, which is actually the day after the "real" Christmas:

I think she might have dropped something down the silo of her new "Little People" barn.

Maybe Kami will become a drummer someday.

Yummy BigMac.

She just learned how to drink out of a new sippy cup with a straw and has discovered juice. She is seldom seen without her cup and all her diapers weigh about ten pounds.

So many presents! Santa was good to us this year.

Kami really did enjoy her keys, although you can't really tell from this picture.

Kami had so much fun with her new giant panda!

It's so funny to watch her tackle it and roll around with it.

Kami was a pretty sleepy girl after opening up her presents.

Here's Garrett's family's Christmas:

Kami thought Uncle Cody would appreciate the product placement.

Kami's modeling her new coat from Uncle Trevorr.

Here's our baby with her new baby and stroller. It's actually pretty cute to see her pushing the stroller around and putting her baby in there.

And now the Dokken's Christmas:

Playing peek-a-boo with her Christmas dress.

Kami did pretty well opening gifts on her own. We had to start tearing the paper for her and she took it from there.

Kami was our Christmas present all wrapped up.

More at the Price's:

What a sweet, proper girl.

Yeah right.

And now the birthday montage:

Gotta try out the birthday cake...

I think I like it...

I like it so much I'll sit in it!

Awesome!

Grandma Dokken was nice enough to make her favorite granddaughter a panda cake!

How many adults does it take to put together a baby toy?

Maybe Kami can help!

Ahhh! Great success!

Maybe Grandma Dokken needs some help too!

Here's her new Noah's Ark "Little People" set from the Dokken Grandparents. She loves taking everything out of the ark and putting the animals in by twosies twosies.

Kami got a few new puzzles too.

Kami doesn't look too thrilled here. She was starting to get tired after a long extravaganza week.

I think Kami might have had more fun with the trash than the actual toys that used to be in those boxes.

Now some miscellaneous pictures:

Since Kami made a mess, we made her help clean up. What a good helper!

Kami was helping Dad pick out shelves at Home Depot.

Kami and her panda needed a nap.

She loves her new phone, yet she still wants ours. Oh well.

Kami thought it was funny to peek through her drum. It was.

Happy birthday, Miss Kami! Looks like lots of fun - it was great seeing pictures of some people from our past, too! :)
Eliana's birthday is December 20th- she wasn't sure about opening presents on that day, but by Christmas, she was a pro!

Note to self - when buying presents for kids, you can never go wrong with a giant stuffed animal! What camera clown that girl is! Thanks for sharing all the birthday pics - sorry we missed it!
