Fun To Be One!

One year ago we welcomed this little cutie into our family...


Today she is even cuter, which I didn't think was possible!


Today is Miley's first birthday, and I am always in awe over how much she has changed over the last year. She has brought so much to our family, and we can't even remember or imagine what life was like without her!

Miley is the sweetest little girl, always coming up to us and giving us kisses out of the blue, and always having a smile for us. She is little Miss Independent now that she is walking, and doesn't like to be held as much, so we cherish the moments that she will snuggle with us and let us hold her, even if it is just for a few minutes. She loves to say "Mama" and "Dada" and has a lot of other things on her mind, that we just can't quite understand yet.

Miley is a little social butterfly. She loves trying to keep up with all of her older cousins and friends, and can play for hours if we would let her. She even tries to give some of her friends her big open mouth kisses, and sometimes freaks them out a little bit. :)

She is full of personality and "spunk". She is a little firecracker who knows exactly what she wants, and when she wants it and does not give up easily. This will probably cause us some trouble in the next year, but for now we love her little feisty personailty.

We feel so lucky to be the parents of this little girl, and know that she is going to bring us lots of laughs, tears, happiness, and love over the course of her life.

We love you, Miley Elizabeth, and happy first birthday! It is fun to be one, so run around, play hard, and keep being you!!
