Birthday Party and 1 year Appointment

Saturday we had Miley's birthday party. It was a lot of fun and I think she actually enjoyed herself. We opened presents throughout the day so she would have different things to play with. Some of the first things she opened was an inflatable ball pit, a Pooh 4 in 1 car, a Spin Around Learning Town and some very cute outfits. She had a short cat nap and then opened the rest. Let's see if I can list them (I apologize in advance if I leave something out)...a Pooh V-Tech telephone, Miley sized hair berets, M&M blanket, several books, a wooden puzzle, a Cabbage Patch Doll (exactly like the one I had when I was little), a Pig rolly backpack, a year's subscription to a baby animals magazine, a paid college tuition with the state of Mississippi, some fun money, a set of coins with her birth year on them, Pig decorations, and that's all I can remember at the moment. She also got lots of birthday gifts in Nebraska, lets see if I can name those...a singing baby doll, lots of super cute outfits for Halloween, Christmas, hockey games, and whatever time, a PDA for babies, a remote control, and that's all I can think of. Thank you notes are coming soon, we're waiting for her 1 year photos to come in. Anyway, I would say that her 1st birthday was a success and with all the things going on I had no time to be sad. Can't wait to move into the new house and set her room up. Oh she also got a cute sign with her name on it to hang in her new room (we should be moving in around the middle of December).

Yesterday, Miley had her 1 year check-up so you know what that means....another weight poll!!! Make your guesses to the right, no help this time but you could look back at her previous weight about a month ago ;). She did very well and passed all the milestone questions...does she walk, does she throw things, does she say Dada, mama, and a few others, does she feed herself, does she drink from a cup.... I said yes even though she won't say Mama, I know she can but she rather mess with me. She also received 4 shots, 2 in each leg. She screamed until I picked her up and gave her a hug. She needs 2 more shots at 15 months then the baby shots are all done. Oh, she got 1 flu shot yesterday so we have to go back next month for the second.

Everything is going well and Miley is growing great. She's been a little fussy later so I believe she is getting sick again. The doctor wrote us a prescription for antibiotics in case she gets an ear infection. Stephen came home yesterday from work sick so it's only a matter of time before we're all three feeling bad. I hope we can make it through Halloween. I just made the weight poll and it seems too easy so let's do a height poll as well!
