Karly turned ONE on Saturday, December 2nd! We can't believe how fast time has gone by--it seems like just yesterday she joined our family. But, we sure can't imagine our life without her....was there life before her?!? She brightens our every day! We haven't updated the blog in awhile since we moved and were without internet for awhile, and since our last update she has taken to walking. She's not very brave...her best walking takes place with her bottle in her mouth, when she doesn't notice she's away from anything to hold onto. But she's getting there! And, still no teeth...I'm almost beginning to wonder if she has any at all?! Other than that, she's still the happy, smiley, little people-person she's always been. We sure do love her!!
Good morning, Sunshine!

We were lucky to have Darin and Shelly over to help celebrate! Karly had to tear each piece of wrapping paper off and hand it over to Darin.


Silly D!!

We gave Karly her own little cake to go at for awhile. She took a minute to get into it--she just kept stroking the top of the cake. But once I dug her hand into the cake for her, she got the idea and tore into it. And of course, the mark of a job well done, she ended up with some down her diaper!
(Her face looks orange in this picture b/c she just finished dinner and I didn't see the point in wiping off her face)

She cleans up pretty nice!!
