Today our oldest child, Maizy Kay, turns the big 5 years old. Born January 4, 2005 at McKayDee Hospital by c-section due to being a stubborn breech baby (should have known from day one). She entered the world at 7:35 am weighing in at 8 lb 10 oz and 20 inches long.
She has been so fun to watch grow. She is a great big sister, a big helper (or so she likes to think), and a smart little stinker to boot.
She had the most hair of all my kids. I was able to do a pigtail, as you see below at 1 month.
Due to her stubborness of being breech, she ended up having congenital hip dysplasia and had to spend 2 months in a pavlik harness to correct her hips.
Maizy has always been a pretty happy baby. I love her smiles!
Look at the cute piggies. Maizy has held still from day one to get her hair done!
Playing in the water-she loves it.
Being silly as usual.
Seeing baby sister Zoey for the 1st time in the hospital.
Having a fix it hair day with mom.
Talking on the phone just like mom.
She is a goofball too.
This was last year when she was 3 going to her first day of preschool. She is now in her 2nd year and so excited to go to Kindergarten next year.
As I said, she is a great big sister. This is the first time she held Zander in the hospital.
She has finally decided she likes Princesses just this year. Last year she was invited to a Princess birthday party. We had to get her Halloween costume out early since she had never played dressup-I believe I have somewhat of a tomboy on my hands.
I love this grin of hers.
Look at those eyes.
This was her 4 year old party. What a surprised look on her face.
Making jewelry from one of her presents.
She is pretty strong and is loving being in tumbling this last year.
Maizy is also a poser.
Attempting curlers for the first time-frizz city!!!
So sweet.
Playing in the snow-she loves being outside.
Maizy,You are truly a blessing in our lives. Thanks for being a wonderful daughter and sister. We look forward to many more years of you growing into the beautiful woman you are meant to be.
Love, Mom and Dad

Cute photos. It's fun to go back and look at her newborn pictures.
Man...it seems like just yesterday that Michelle and I were bringing you cheesecake in the hospital and seeing that cute squishy newborn face of Maizy Kay for the first time. Thanks for the memories. Happy birthday, Maizy!
Loved looking back on the pictures of her. She is such a darling girl. I love her to pieces. Hope she got our birthday message.
