Happy Birthday Mannix! You have grown up so much in a year- walking, running, climbing, teasing your brother, and starting to be a big helper. You are up for every adventure- except car rides after dark when you'd rather scream. You have a headful of blondish hair thats a little curly on the ends, a mouthful of teeth just starting to eat new foods, and a smile that lights up a room. You blow kisses, give big hugs, and make noises like you are talking. We are thinking of having you and your brother share a room so you can wake up and play in the mornings. We are starting to plan our summer family vacation and will be looking for adventures for all of us...swimming, hiking, cupcakes, and other fun stuff. Until then, we'll have lots of fun exploring around home and just growing up together! Please try to be careful and stop bumping that forehead, so we can go get pictures taken- we've had to reschedule three times already! We love you!!- Mommy and Daddy
PS- Here are some pictures from the birthday party we had at home with your friends and family. It took a while for you to dive into your cupcake from MadHatters! It was such a nice day, warm enough for everyone to play outside on the swingset... In January!!! Lots of great birthday wishes and fun toys to play with! Happy Birthday!
