Happy Birthday Layla

What a gorgeous, but kind of scary ;), smile. She just had another tooth pop through on the bottom right side (her right side) this morning.

My baby girl is one year old today. That year went so fast! We're having a little party for her this coming weekend. So, we went to the Toy House and to Toys R Us to play with toys and look for bday gifts today. I need to get her some girly toys so she stops stealing all Blake's cars and toys. He doesn't like that very much :)

She is such a precious little girl. She is walking around holding on to things, but doesn't really want to let go yet. I've seen her take about 5 steps on her own a couple of times. She just needs to make the decision to take off. She is a climber. Her favorite thing to do is crawl/walk up the stairs holding onto our fingers. She will walk all the way up grandma's small slide and slide down on her belly. She is also loving to crawl under things...tables, chairs, tunnels. I don't really know what kind of toys she likes yet besides everything Blake has. Everything still seems to end up in her mouth :) She does like to play with balls....rolls and chases after them.

She will wave hi and bye bye and actually tries to say bye (ba) sometimes. She likes to clap and dance. She will hold 1 finger up when you ask her how old she is and then claps for herself.

The gift of raising children is such a blessing from God!
