Oh what a fun day!
Today was a Schulte Family Reunion (with a sign that said "Ally's Party"). There were so many new people for Ally to meet, Daddy and I were very nervous Ally would shut down and cling to our hips. Of course, Ally rocked it out! She was playful with a couple of her cousins, ran around tons and tons, loved the super high swinging swing, ate food, gave hugs to Auntie, Uncle, Grammie and Grampa, and gave high 5's to pretty much everyone else (a HUGE step for her!). It was so nice to see all the Schulte relatives, and Mommy and Daddy are super appreciative of everyone giving Ally her space and allowing her to do what she wanted, which was run up and down the little hill to Grampa. Such a fun day, and as a bonus, Ally slept the WHOLE way home. Thanks Schulte family for being so awesome.
