One…
(yes…the poor girl has a thespian for a mom, who loves A Chorus Line)
ONE! Kaylyn is ONE!
Has ONE year really gone by already???? I cannot believe it! It went so fast!
This past Sunday, December 12th, Kaylyn Beth Mills turned ONE year old.
As of age ONE…Kaylyn:
- Weighed 21.6 lbs
- Measured 29.6 lbs
- Had her first flu, ear infection, & pink eye all at the same time, &…
- Finally started cutting teeth – 3 of them at the same time (poor girl – rough month)
- Likes to lean her head on you to “cuddle”
- Enjoyed her first birthday cake (or at least the frosting!)
- Loves Pizza & Pasta!
- Traveled to Fresno for a 2nd time – in her first year of life she went to: Fresno (2x), Big Bear, Las Vegas (2x), & Zion
- Is up for anything & is quite a trooper
- Seems to be drawn towards Minnie Mouse – she has a plush doll she loves & I always find her mouthing Riley’s Minnie Mouse figurines
- Says: “Mama,” “Dada” & seems to at least understand when we say “Kaylyn,” “Riley,” “Doggies,” “bottle,” “please,”“more please,” “bath,” “cuddles,””Eskimo kisses,” “yeah”
- Cracks up when we chase her around the house. She thinks it is hysterical!
- Fell in love with magnets this past month – specifically, the ones on the refrigerator; she would play with them for hours, if she could
- Has a great sense of rhythm & rocks out when she hears music!
- Finds silly pet & baby videos extremely funny (discovered this on the long drive home from Fresno)
- Has learned to communicate what she wants by pointing
- Is intrigued by the shadows she discovered from the night light in her room
Dear Kaylyn,
Thank you so much for a year of smiles! Thank you for a year of precious memories, funny firsts & joyous squeals! Thank you for loving your big sister, Mommy, Daddy & all of us so much. The doggies thank you for playing with them & being gentle when pulling on the ears, mouths, fur, etc.
We are so excited to watch you grow this next year & to see the amazing personality God has given you come through even more as you learn even more during your second year of life. Please know that Mommy, Daddy & Riley love you so much & are incredibly thankful God has entrusted you to us.
Love always,
Mommy & Daddy
