Ok, I know her first birthday was exactly a month ago today, but at least I'm getting pictures up. I've decided this is just how it's going to be. I always have great plans to blog frequently, and I think of all kinds of things to say, but then there are other things I need to do or I forget.Karis' first birthday was so great. Her birthday was on a Friday. She and Caleb and I just spent the day playing and then as a family of 4, we headed to Chick fil a for dinner, which she and Caleb both love. The next day we had a family party with all of the grandparents, great-grandparents and aunts and uncles. It was lots of fun, and Karis seriously loved her cake!
It's hard to believe she is already a year old (well, technically 13 months old today). In some ways this year has just flown by, and in other ways it has seemed very long with lots going on. But she is the biggest blessing - such a sweet, sweet girl. I think she just might be as loud as her brother, and she also loves to roar at him and her daddy as a way of saying hello. I really need to get it on video! At her 1 year Dr. appt. Karis weighed in at 18.6 lbs and 28 3/4 inches. She is in the 10-15th percentile for both height and weight - funny after having such a big boy first! My beautiful girl is so close to walking, which is very exciting to me! I can't wait to go to the park this spring and summer when they can both run around and climb and play.
I didn't mean for my fingers to get in the picture, but all I have to do is act like I'm going to tickle her, and she starts giggling. You can also see her teeth, which she now has 8.
Isn't this shirt so cute - made by her Aunt Missy - thank you!
I love making my kids' birthday cakes. My mom always made ours, and I always thought that was so special. I think this one turned out pretty well :)
LOVE this picture. She had such a good time eating that cake.
But it was very clear when she was done! Happy Birthday my sweet, beautiful Karis!
