Happy Halloween!!

My baby girl is 1....

Happy Birthday, my sweetest sunshine girl!
You are now one year old.... On October 22nd, 2005 at 2:22 in the morning, you made me the happiest momma!! You completely changed my life!! Writing about the first year of your life has been really difficult for me to put into words... One full year of intense and truly unconditional love; one full year of amazement and wonder of such a tiny, beautiful person; one full year of laughter and incredible happiness; one full year of the most incredible times I have ever spent! I would do it all over again in a heartbeat, but I would never trade that time spent with you in your first year for anything in the world!
You have taught me incredible super-human (super-mom!) strength, and you have taught me the feeling of weakness over such a tiny, tiny being. Over and above all, you have taught me about true love and all of it's power, weak and strong.
Your momma's love for you grows stronger and stronger with each passing day. With every step you take, every word you speak, every new task you learn and conquer, every cabinet you climb into, every table you crawl over, every button you push, every box you get into and empty and then repack..... EVERY little thing that you do. Momma is going to be there, watching you, protecting you and smiling, with such love in her heart for you! We are so lucky to be together~ I am truly the luckiest momma in the world, and you, my sweet sunshine, are the most beautiful girl in the world!
I love you, my precious one year old girl!

Emily, Daddy & I had so much fun at the zoo!! Emily's eyes were so wide taking in all of the sights and sounds of new animals! And she loved the train ride!!! :)

A day with Uncle Jacob!

Emily and I had the pleasure of spending an entire day with my sweetest little brother, Emily's Uncle Jacob! We had such a fun day exploring the Children's Museum, running around the Washington Park playground and having the best Snow Kone's ever at the Washington Park Rose Garden. I wish we could spend this kind of time every weekend with him!

We love you Uncle Jacob, and miss you already!! :)
