12 Months Old!

One!!  Happy FIRST birthday baby girl!  You’re ONE!  Oh my goodness-I can’t believe it!  We woke you up with the birthday song, and you gave us the, “One, one, one, one” with your sweet little finger!  You learned that a few days ago in preparation of this day!You have a handful of super sweet tricks that I love!  You wave-and it’s not so much back and forth, but more up and down.  You hold your sweet hand up high and then move it like you’re patting your highchair.  Love!  You also clap your hands, LOVE to play peek-a-boo (sometimes by covering your forehead instead of your eyes!), and are starting to blow kisses!  And I LOVE the big open mouth kisses that you give!You stand, no problem, and will take a step or two-sometimes three or four if you’re not paying attention!  I love this part of walking, the watching you learn part!  You get so brave and have no fear.  Proud of you, doll baby!You still nap twice a day but are just fine if we skip your morning nap.  You’ll still nap on the go in your carrier, too, and I’m so thankful for that!  Such a laid back, easy going, sweet thing!We still nurse in the morning and before bed, but I can tell you’re almost finished with that.  Oh, I’ll miss it!  You’ve already had milk in a sippy cup, and you do great with it.You’re so happy and silly and fun, and we’re so, so grateful that you’re ours!  You’re such a delight!  We love you more than words can say, sweet girl, and we’re so excited to be celebrating your very first birthday!  Happy, happy birthday to you!!
