birthday wish

For Kara's 1st birthday I wrote this little list of cute things she's doing and saved it for her in her baby book. I thought I'd share... along with a picture of our one year old girl.

  • she walks all over the place; amazing us with how big she is.
  • she plays peek-a-boo and never tires of it.
  • she's curious, crazy and cuddly - all in one.
  • she's going to be a talker, of this we are certain.
  • do we wonder where she inherited the urge to talk so much? i think not.
  • when she smiles, our hearts melt.
  • when she giggles, you can't help but laugh back.
  • she adores Daddy... visitors take about an hour to notice this.
  • ethan is her hero; she can sit and watch him endlessly.
  • rachel is her friend; "make-believing" it what they do best together.
  • mommy is the proud kisser of boo-boo central. there's magic in those kisses ;)
  • the jungle night time song is her favorite. you start to sing it, she'll stop and listen.
  • her auntie trisha holds a very special place in her heart.
  • cousin sam is her first crush.
  • the phone greatly interest her and the voice on the other end is fascinating!
  • bed time is typically greeted with such joy. as long as the paci is ready, the silky blanket at hand... she is content to greet some Z's with very little complaints.she is social, but
  • please keep your distance. if you care too much, she will shy away.
  • if you start to sing the ABC's, she will clap as you sing.
  • drinking water from the bath tub is her favorite.
  • stopping her from drinking the water is not mommy's favorite.
  • trees and flowers must be touched. stopping to watch the leaves blow in the wind is quite captivating.
  • she loves babies. i think she gets a kick out being bigger than someone :)
she's our baby, but quickly becoming our big girl.
Happy 1st year, Kara Joy!

Happy Birthday Kara! She sounds like such a sweetie! Thanks for sharing so much about her...one thing I am loving about blogging is that it is a kind of online journal. Have a wonderful day celebrating her life!
