Happy Birthday, Makayla!

Happy 1st birthday, Makayla!!! I can't believe it was a year ago that I was asking for an epidural, and thinking, "Oh, man, here we go again!!!" Your delivery was so much easier than Brother's (probably because of the drugs) even though you still topped the scale at 9 pounds. Your blonde hair and blue eyes are going to drive the boy's crazy. You are one tough cookie, but that isn't a surprise since every time I look over, Joshua is trying to pin you to the ground. You love your brother, and he loves you. It is so much fun to watch you two play together, even though the majority of those moments end up with tears and yelps. You are very thoughtful with toys, and are getting so independent. You sleep like a champ, which everyone in the house loves. You eat SO much, yet keep quite a petite figure. I seriously think you would eat all day if I let you. Just like Brother and Mommy, you love your carbs! You are a little fish when it comes to bath time. Daddy can't wait to get you in the pool! You crawl all over the house, and use people and furniture to crawl up to your knees. You are developing a stubborn streak...I'll chalk that one up to Daddy ; ) You are such a joy to be around, and I can't wait to see what this next year looks like as you grow into a toddler. Thank you for still letting me cuddle with you on rare occasions, and for your slobbery kisses and claps when I come into your room. We love you, Peanut!
