The Moffett Family: Suzannah's First Birthday!

Well Suzannah is officially one years old! It's so crazy to think about us having a 1yr old! This past year has flown by so fast, but boy has Suzannah made it so much fun. She is literally the best little entertainer, I will never get tired of just sitting and watching her. Over the past year she has grown so much, she currently has 5 teeth and her hair is finally long enough for a clippy and a little pigtail! Here are some things she enjoys...

1.She loves books, all you have to say is "Suzannah wanna read a book" and she is up and in your arms ready to read with a book in hand haha.
2. She loves playing with anything that's not a toy, keys and our cell phones are her favorite,
3. She loves rocking out to music with her dad, I guess this is probably because her dad made her play the guitar and drums from day one ;) Every time her dad is playing his guitar she wants him to hold her soo bad and when he picks her up she is just the happiest little girl in the world. She really loves her daddy.

4. She loves to eat anything we are eating, it doesn't matter if her tummy is super full, if we are eating something she has got to have it too!
5. She hates to be away from mommy, she has kind of had this problem since she was born but lately it's gotten even worse. I love that she needs me but man I walk away for one second and if she isn't distracted playing or something you better believe she is right on my heels fussing until I pick her up and let her come with me. :)
6. She loves taking walks and playing on the slide at the playground. Every time we go for a walk now and she see's the slide she instantly reaches for it. She really loves it and has so much fun on it.
7. For some reason she loves our shoes, she is always carrying them around the house and she loves clothes as you can see in her reaction when she got some at her birthday party haha. I guess she is going to be quite the little girl :)
8. She loves to brush her teeth, it's funny to watch her giggle when mommy brushes them because it tickles and now she wants to be a big girl and do it on her own, she does a good job too!

Just recently she has grown to love a teddy bear that her Great Grandma Gretchen gave her, it's so cute, one day I found her awake in her crib just playing with him and from that day on she will reach for him when she is tired and give him lots of cuddles. She's even fallen asleep with him tucked under her arm, sooooo cute!!!

She likes just about any food, except for the baby food dinners and formula. Just recently I started to try to wean her from nursing and she did not like whole milk either. Then I saw some vanilla flavored formula and wala gave that a try and she downed it! I couldn't believe it, thank heavens we found something!!!

At about 11 months Suzannah really started walking, it's so fun to see her try so hard and then accomplish something. Now she is everywhere around the house! She has even mastered going up the stairs!

Suzannah has learned the art of fussiness pretty much since day one :) Starting with colic, then getting better for a while and now it's back again and I wonder what the terrible two's will bring if she already is fussy! :/ I tell ya, if she doesn't like something she will let you know! haha We still love her though and we know it won't last forever. She is already learning to communicate with us more and more each day and that alone is rewarding for the both of us.

Here is a link to her pictures that we took at JCP today: Suzannah's First year pics

This past Wed (her birthday), we had a birthday party with some friends and family. We had a great turnout and soo much fun! Thank you to everyone that came and thank you for all her sweet thoughtful gifts. For those of you who weren't able to come to her party here is the video of it for you. I love all her reactions to her gifts!
