June - Lanaya turns 1!

June flew by as though it was a 100 mile/hour wind.  I've never experienced a month that seems so short in all my life.  Was it really more than 2 days??  The most significant of days might of been Lanaya's 1st birthday.  I really can't believe that I didn't post anything.
Not sure about this "cake" thing

Laya has been a complete joy in our lives.  She is a happy, easy going, totally content baby.  She sleeps well, eats well and enjoys playing peek-a-boo more than anything else.  She covers her face and waits for you to say, "Where's Laya?" before revealing her face - with great enthusiasm.  She is a total joy!  She has said "der di is" (there she is) and Dada (just this week, we became much more sure that it was, indeed, aimed at her Daddy.  Mama is still questionable.  She goes up and down stairs with ease, loves playing in toilets and discovering how everything works.  She loves the different sounds of things and nothing soothes her more than some good music (piano, cello and violin especially).
First big shove of cake

She has just started to show that she has some curls in her hair and I couldn't love it more.  She also has the biggest blue eyes (courtesy of Granni Cahoon) and the biggest smile!  She's a Mama's girl and doesn't go to anyone that she's not 100% familiar with.  I, however, love it when strangers try to play with her, as she grips my neck super tight and gives me the biggest squeeze ever (while lying down on my shoulder).  LOVE IT!
It's a hit!!
Blowing a kiss as a thank you.  ;)
