Happy Birthday Evelyn!!

WOW!! this year has flown by so fast! I cannot believe it!! All you who think us parents make this shit up dont know the half of it! I'm scared to blink my eyes and she'll be a teenager!


As I was reading through the Birth Story I wrote last year, it still seems like yesterday! As the year has gone on I have realized how much has changed with how I felt about her birth. I wouldnt change what happened for anything, but I also decided on how different I was the next babys birth to be...if there is ever a next baby.

Her Birth Day

Over the last year I have taught Evelyn how to crawl, walk, say: Dada and Mama..and a little bit of "Ampa!" (grandpa). She's learned to even dance with me, and learned a few games. We've got her weaned off of breastmilk and now formula. She's gotten 8 teeth! She loves any type of food! She hates mushrooms and peppers. She's the biggest Daddys girl I have ever met!

My daughter is seriously the biggest blessing I've ever had in my life! She makes my world turn and shine so brightly! I love waking up and hearing her babble in her room. I love dressing her up and helping her turn into a beautiful little girl! I love that I can teach her that apperance matters by doing her hair and dressing her in a cute outfit for the day. I love that God gave me the chance to be this wonderful little girls mother! I love that my husband is wonderful enough to let me stay home and raise her the way we both want to raise her. I love how much my husband loves her! and I love that everyone around her just loves her to death!
