One Huge Mila Update!

This morning as I watched my big girl go about her crazy morning routine, I thought to myself "Will I remember when she started saying what words. Will I remember the random funny things she does that makes her suddenly seem so grown up?" The truth is this first year has already flown right on by and I know in another year I won't remember certain things she does now... so I wrote them down and now I'm going to share all of the Mila-ness with you lovely people!

It is so amazing to have written this down and actually see how much she knows already! I don't care if I sound like one of "those" moms - I have one smart cookie over here and I love it!

Also it is amazing what can be accomplished when your mother comes over because she just NEEDS to see her granddaughter. I vacuumed without my wonderful daughter booking it into the farthest room in the house in tears! Yay!
