Happy Birthday to Berkley !!!

I can't believe that our little baby Berkley is one years old! It seems like only yesterday that I was at the hospital getting ready to have her. What a fun little addition she is to our family. She has such a sweet disposition. Whenever Berkley gets excited she will clench her fists together and straighten out her arms and shake them. It is so funny to watch.

With the size of Birdies cheeks you would think that she has a healthy, hardy appetite, but she is far from that! She eats like a bird, if at all. I was looking forward to moving her from formula to milk, but I'm worried about taking her off of it. As long as she's on formula, if she doesn't eat, I know that she's getting all the vitamins and nutrients that she needs.

When it came time to eat her cake, Berkley wasn't very interested in eating it. She licked her fingers a little and then was more interested in playing with it.




Berkley takes after her father with a love of music. She just recently discovered grandma & grandpa's piano and loves it. Any music that she hears sends her into a wiggle. Not only does she bob up and down like most babies do, but she also shakes her hips back and forth, moves her shoulders up and down, and will wave her hands in the air and clap her hands. The other day she found Emree's I Pod sitting on the coffee table and was trying to figure out how to use the headphones. She kept putting them close to her ears and then letting them go. It was so cute. I put one in her ear and she started to dance.

We love our little birdie and are so glad that she is in our family. What would we do without those chubby cheeks to smooch!

Happy Birthday Berkley! She is huge, compared to Ashes. No, I would never guess that she doesn't eat that much. Looks like she had a great birthday!

Happy Birthday to Berkley! She is growing so fast. She and Lucy would have a great time dancing together. In fact, Lucy's dancing reminds me a lot of Emree's dancing at this age. So fun!

I can't believe she is already 1!!! That went by so fast, Marcie! She is such a cute and adorable girl. I guess maybe it's time to start thinking about a #5 boy, huh? Hehehe. Anyway, we miss the Curtis family so much out here.

Hi! I so love this blogging thing. There were so many people at m dad's funeral that I haven't seen or talked to in years!!! Your parents and Mindie for starters. How great it has been to reconnect. I just wanted to say hello and hope you are doing well. Your family is adorable. Brackon.. I finally made my trip to Italy. Keep in touch. I'd love to hear from you every once in a while and I hopped onto your blog from Mindie's. Hope you don't mind.
