Has it really been a year!! Sweet Lanaea you have been the MOST wonderful thing that has happened to us in 2010. In a year of many trials, you have brought us hope, joy, peace, and comfort. You're a sweet mell0w-tempered child with an excitement for life. Your sisters love you!! To your dismay, Mylee can't get enough of you at times. Thank you for making our lives that much brighter and wonderful. Dad and I LOVE you! May you always remember how special you are and that you are a Daughter of a loving Heavenly Father.


At one year old you can say "Mamma", "Dadda", "Uh-o", "Hi" and you point to everything and say, "huh?" When you point or wave hi you fully extend your arm and stick out your pointer finger and your thumb. You are a GREAT eater!! You'll try anything I present to you. When you don't like something you'll just spit it out. You've been sleeping through the night since you were 4 months old and you still comfort yourself in your bed by sucking your thumb. You're close to walking by you aren't quite there yet. You can stand alone on your two feet though and get to that position by yourself. You love to go through all my tubberware lids and throw them all over my kitchen floor. You love to play peek-a-boo and will often start the game yourself with a blanket. You also do a really cool trick by standing on your head and pointing your bottom up into the air. You're a healthy and beautiful baby!
