Today, May 4, 2011, she turns 1
Happy Birthday, Kelli Mae!
I cannot believe how quickly this year has gone! Kelli is such a fun little girl. She has the cutest personality and is always making us laugh. She is very curious and every time I turn around, she is into something. She loves to empty her dresser drawers and my kitchen drawers. She loves to "read" books. Kelli's favorite time of day is bath time. Whenever she hears the water turn on, she heads straight to the bathroom with squeals. She would sit in the tub and play all day if I would let her. Her second favorite time of day is meal time. Although Kelli still has NO teeth, she loves to eat anything and everything. Her favorites at the moment are macaroni & cheese and rice. She adores Michael and is just starting to "wrestle" with him. And she can hold her own pretty well! She loves her Daddy and her first word was "Dada". Mitch thought it was pretty cool that she said his name first. She just started saying "Mama" with much coaching from me! She will walk holding onto furniture or hands, but has yet to take her "first steps". She loves to give hugs and kisses and is the sweetest little girl ever! We love her so much and are so glad that she is a part of our family!
On Sunday we celebrated her birthday with our families. I made her a "Fish" birthday cake because she loves to watch our fish swim around.

Just after she (I) blew out the candle.
And here she is enjoying her cake! And she sure LOVED IT!
We had such a fun day celebrating Kelli's birthday. Thank you to all of you that shared it with her!
