Our little babes turns 1 year young today!

Everette Mica has such a personality. She giggles, she runs around, she's fearless, she loves guacamole, she claps her hands, she has literally traveled the world (yes, in a year), and she can say "I love Auntie Tay". It's the craziest thing (wink wink)!

Everette's mother, one of my besties, asked me to paint Evers as a mermaid. I think that's a pretty perfect first birthday gift. When we gave her the painting to hold she couldn't stop staring at it. We wanted her to hold it and show the camera but she had her own agenda.

I just love her so much. She's so warm and loving and beautiful. I was sitting next to her in her adult size crib and she just started patting my shoulder and looking at me. My heart could have exploded.

I took her 1 year old photo shoot on my friend's dock. She was a champ and was absolutely loving the camera. She loves the water, just like her parents! She's such a little sweetie.

Whatever my friends are doing, they're doing it right!

Happy First Birthday Everette Mica Rhee!
