Happy First Birthday Alina!

Our adorable birthday girl at one-year-old



 

 

Baby doll Alina,

 

Today you are one-year-old and it has us wondering just where the time has gone! It feels like only a few weeks ago, we were holding you in our arms at the hospital; a tiny and perfect bundle of newborn joy. You were so fragile and beautiful, and your birth was the most joyous occasion.

 

Over the course of your first year, you have brought immeasurable love and fulfillment to our home; our family feels complete. Mommy, daddy and your big sister, Elise, are absolutely smitten with you. You are the biggest sweetheart and we all affectionately refer to you as our "doll". You are an adorable little girl, and we can't get enough of your precious chubby cheeks, pouty lips and sweet baby doll eyes.

 

At one-year-old, your little spirit and personality has begun to shine through. You are the most mellow and easygoing little girl. You rarely ever fuss, and you always wake up with a smile on your face. You're our little love bug. You love cuddling, giving hugs and kisses, waving hello and goodbye to everyone, and you relish your time in mommy and daddy's arms. That being said, you are also quite an inquisitive and determined baby. You were an early walker, and have since moved on to running, climbing, and daredevil stunts :) You are not afraid to get messy, and allow nothing to stand in the way of a good thrill. We see you as a very active little girl at heart, and foresee this being a trait that you will always keep.

 

Mommy and daddy are so overjoyed by your sweet-natured personality. You have been a breeze to care for over this first year, as you are just always so lovable and content. We foresee you as being our little adventurous optimist; full of love and high spirits. We hope that you will always think positively and keep your zest for life close to heart. We know that you will follow the right path in life, with a bit of adventure along the way, and that you will surround yourself with people who love and care for you as much as we do. Sweet Alina, you will forever be our beautiful, loving baby girl; remember that you are in our hearts always.

Love,

Mommy, Daddy and Elise
