Happy 1st Birthday, Elayna Marie

Happy 1st birthday, Ellie belly!  Elayna on 10-20-2010:

Elayna today:

We got up this morning and took Hobbes to the vet, did Elayna's 12 month check up (poor baby got 5 shots), bought her Halloween costume (angel), met Nana and Papa for sushi lunch, and went to my work so everyone could admire her.

At 12 months, Elayna is:

Walking everywhere, of course
Still wearing size 3 diapers
Wearing 6-9 month clothes
27 inches tall
19 pounds 11 ounces
Shakes her head and says nuhnuhnuh
Waves goodbye
Hi-fives
Wears size 3 infant shoes
Blue eyes
Dark blonde/light brown hair
Hair is LONG - about 1/4 of the way down her back

On the way to pick up Hobbes from the vet we stopped by the park for more pictures.  Elayna just wanted to be held so she's crying in most of the pics.

I've taken a picture of Elayna almost every day of her life.  It's amazing how much she's changed but still looks like herself at birth at the same time.  Okay, that sounds weird, but it makes perfect sense in my head.

Happy birthday, princess.  We love you and can't wait to celebrate many more birthdays with you!
