Happy 1st Birthday!
The speed with which the 1st year flies by never ceases to amaze me. Seems like you bring them home and literally only a few days later you find yourself planning a birthday party wondering where the time went. Maybe it's the sleep deprivation and craziness of the first year or maybe it's just that they change so fast that first year that you really just can't keep up. Either way here we are again reflecting on the 1st year of our littlest one.
Hazel just recently started taking a few steps. She has great balance and I think once she is ready to move it's going to come easily for her, but for now she usually still prefers crawling as its a much more efficient way of keeping up with her siblings. She's a little bitty thing weighing in at only 16lb 14oz at her one year old appointment, but she makes up for her small weight with her BIG personality. She is quite literally the silliest little thing I've ever seen. She laughs easily, loves playing with Daddy, loves pestering her siblings, loves her bunny, and adores her big sister who is always there to take care of her. She isn't talking much yet but will say mama and dada and definitely knows how to get her point across. For example, the highlight of her day is when Daddy gets home, loads her into the baby carrier and takes her outside to do chores. If he dares do to anything else before that she lets him know how she feels about it by walking into the mud room fussing and jabbering while pointing at the hanging baby carrier. How can you tell her no.
Happy Birthday Sweet Baby Girl! We love you so very much! You are sweet and petite. You give the best snuggles and we love to hear you laugh when we tickle you or when you're just laughing along with the rest of the kids even though you can't have any idea what's so funny. You bring us so much joy and we love you!
Love, Mommy and Daddy
