I can’t believe Madelyn is 1 year old as of yesterday!! Wow, the time sure does fly by. She was born Dec. 7th at 12:46pm. She weighed 7lbs 11oz and yesterday her doctor said she’s 19lbs 3oz. She got a very good report and showed Dr. Lisa that she can walk. She didn’t like her diaper being off while sitting on the scale so she T-T’ed (not sure how you would spell that) all on the scale.
Here she is waiting for her doctor appointment.
Madelyn says: Mama, dada, baba, hi, and bye along with a lot of jibber jabber that only Michael understands. She is walking whenever she’s in the mood. Loves to climb, eat, play under the Christmas tree, LOVES bath time and music!!
Saturday, Dec. 4th we had a breakfast party for little miss. I think the breakfast party worked a lot better for me because I only stressed for 2 hours before the party instead of several hours leading up to it.
We served a breakfast casserole, blueberry and banana nut muffins, spiced bread, and fruit. This was my first time ever making a true birthday cake. I made a little something for Michael on his 2nd b-day, but nothing like this. I thought it turned out pretty cute and it tasted really good!
Madelyn got a lot of really nice things. Her Daddy wanted to get her something special from him only so he went out and got her a jewelry box and had her name engraved on top. It has Swarovski crystal’s on it to give it a beautiful sparkle.
This is one of the cutest outfits that her Aunt Stephanie made her.
Madelyn LOVED her birthday cake. Needless to say, we had cake all over the balloons, me, the tablecloth, on Maddie’s clothes and all in her hair. She got to do a little repeat of it last night on her birthday and made an even bigger mess. This time Michael helped her destroy the cake.
After she got cleaned up from her cake and her party ended, she played on the table with all her gifts.

I love you so much Madelyn!!
Happy 1st Birthday!!!
