Juliette is ONE!!!!


Icing is the best part...

Don't you people know it is over an hour past my bedtime?

But, since you are serving cake, I will wait.


We took a quick trip to Moravia, Iowa to celebrate Juliette's first birthday with her Grandpa Miller, Great Grandma, uncles, aunt and cousins and also some friends too. It was a long drive (7 plus hours) and then we celebrated late afternoon with a pizza party and birthday cake. Juliette was in a daze and so didn't "smash" into her cake and was mildly interested in nibbling on it.


Juliette turned 1 on Saturday, June 25th. It is seriously hard to believe that this year has gone by so quickly...I am resentful that time continues to click on faster and faster every month. I am not ready for her to grow up!

Miss Juju is now on the move...and is into everything! Babies that take a little longer in this department in my experience have already calculated their line of attack and know which corners are most dangerous, which cupboards have the most bang for the buck, and which outlets have no covers. She pulls herself up to her knees and of course loves to on our sharp treacherous fireplace. She likes to babble and hold on to a few letters like AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH loudly for seconds at a time. She loves to be outside, animals, books, fruit (her fav is watermelon), her mama, solid naps, swinging and grabbing meanly at her sister's faces and attempting to scratch their eyes out. She went to the doc today and has dropped to 25th% in weight, 19 lbs 13 oz and is 75th% in height, 29 3/4 in.
