Today we celebrated Adeline’s first birthday! It’s so sweet getting to think back on all the times we’ve already shared with her and looking forward to the days ahead. We love our sweet girl and loved seeing her dig into her smash cake!
We are the Murrays; mastering the art of growing up, one day at a time.

party here for um Adeline. It's just
been great. Um we didn't have a candle.
Sounds good. Are you going to try on the
candle bit? No. No, you're not. We
didn't have a candle. Tyler even told us
yesterday at Walmart there's a little
one candle. She said, "Oh, we need to
get that for for Adeline." And um we
didn't get it. We didn't get it for him.
So, we didn't have a candle for her
today. That's okay. She didn't need a
candle. She just likes this cake. But
look at that yummy cake. Look at Look,

times today on everything. Um, and yeah.
Did you have a good birthday? Was it Did
you eat so much cake? Are you in a sugar
coma? She ate so much cake. She loved
it. But I even I'm surprised like I
think she did get full or sick of it
sooner than probably kids who are used
to sugar because she ate a lot, but she
didn't eat that. You know what I mean?
She started playing with it. Anyway,
she's saying good night. Say good night.

leftovers and then they're going to bed
and I'm going to clean up all this mess
and have quiet time. But we love you
guys and we hope your weekend is going
great. One more week until Christmas.
