Jaycee's Park Adventure/Updates

Can you find Jaycee???

Jaycee enjoys the park so much! She walks around, looks at things in the sky, and constantly watches children if they are around. 

Her newest developments:

*Jaycee is obsessed with the telephone! It can be the house phone or the cell phone, she wants it. She knows that it belongs on her ears and will point and speak whenever she wants it.

**Jaycee has figured out how to climb things by lifting her legs. She is now climbing on the coffee table, climbing onto the couch, and attempting to climb anything else that she desires.

***Jaycee is a MAJOR organizer. She puts things into piles, she empties bags and boxes, and she enjoys organizing and re-organizing her belongings day after day. She is a bit of a neat freak in some ways. Messes are only okay if she makes them. If there is an item out of place, she takes her time and replaces that item until she is completely satisfied with its newest location. 

****Jaycee throws herself backwards for fun (whether or not a person is there to catch her). So far, she has been lucky enough to have one of her parents catch her before she eats it. 

*****Jaycee LOVES, LOVES, LOVES spaghetti. It is by far her favorite meal. She ate two entire plates of it last night and way so very happy at the end of it!

And as we go into our 13th month, Jaycee is practically running everywhere she goes. She always has a mission and is so quick on her feet. She hardly ever falls anymore and is wonderful at catching her balance if she ever finds her footing thrown off.

Happy Birthday Daddy!



Our poppa is officially an old man today! He is closer to 30 than to 20, which means he will be losing all his hair, his teeth, and his memory any day now. Good thing your girls love you just the way you are!

Happy Birthday! We hope you have a wonderful day :)

Happy 1st Birthday Jaycee

Jaycee's 1st Birthday!







Jaycee had a very nice day and evening. She especially enjoyed her chicken parmigiana with mini wheel-shaped noodles. And her very own freshly baked cupcake for desert! 

Happy Birthday Jaycee Lynn Becerra!

In a big girl land. . .








So Jaycee has decided that since her one year birthday is just around the corner, why not start early and act like a big kid now?

Today Jaycee woke up at her usual 6:45, just in time to send her Mommy to work. She decided that a morning nap wasn't necessary and instead, decided to take her first nap at about 3:45. If you do the math that is NINE hours!!! What is this kid thinking? She may be close to one, but come on!

These are the pictures of how Jaycee fell asleep. She literally fell. On the floor, with her blanket. And for those of you that noticed, yes, she is in pajamas. It was extremely cold today and footsie pjs are the only thing that she can't get out of. 

Here we are, 52 weeks post-birth and our kid is passing out on the floor from exhaustion. Great, just great. . .
