One Year Ago Today

Mackayla was born.

Where did the time go?

 We had a party with her two best friends

 She stands for a few seconds by herself

 She got two dogs for her birthday

 and some fun things from her grandmas.

 And of course a dog cake and butterfinger dog biscuits

 She didn't go after her cake but carefully pulled pieces apart

 and gnawed on her dog biscuit:)

 She gradually got more animated as she ate

 and pulled cake apart

 and ate it

 and flung it on the floor

 stinker:)

 She also loves to feed me. No thanks

I don't recommend using buttercream frosting. Martha Stewart led me astray with the dog cake demo. It has TEN sticks of butter. go vomit. And how do you clean that up?

 With lots and lots of soap and water.

 After that we went with daddy to work

 to check on a patient.

 More about that later:)

We love Mackayla. She is very sweet and easy going, and feisty and wants her way. She's patient and demanding. A terrible sleeper but will sleep anywhere. Doesn't like to cuddle, but very loving.

She plays contentedly.
She loves animals.

She loves her mom.

She loves her family.

She loves to swim.
She loves to brush her teeth.

She loves blueberries.

She loves Cody and Macey and their toys.

She wants to be as big as them, 

and will be before I blink my eyes.
You're getting so big baby 'KayLa!
