year too!

This is one of my favorite photos of Grandpa, Grandma and Daddy looking over 'brand new me' last year. Mommy and I lived here for the first three days of my life. She said that she never put me down, unless there were visitors or she was changing me. The nurses came in constantly to make sure I was surrounded by pillows in case I fell asleep...but Mommy doesn't think she slept for three days...I don't know if I believe that!
My Great Grandma got to see me for almost a full year before she passed away...I'm really happy about that too. Here she is with my Grandma (her daughter) the day I was born.
My Uncle Landon came to see me too...he was at my birthday party, but we didn't get any photos of him, unfortunately. 
Here is Jenn and my Uncle Jay...he was at the hospital last year, but when he came, Mommy wasn't taking photos that day.
Here is my funny Grandma with our clown...
Here is my Grandma and Grandpa with me on my BIRTHday.

Jennifer and her niece Sabrina came to my party after doing 'Race for the Cure' all morning with their family! 
Another 'hottie' at my party! 
Our neighbors Justice, Bill and Ann came over! 
Bill works for the FBI and here is my Daddy having a serious conversation with him...I wonder what Bill was thinking with Dad's Elmo hat on? 
tee hee!
The whole day was just awesome! 
There was face painting, singing, parachuting, and 
BALLOONS!! My favorite!! 
When the coast was clear I tried to rummage through the clown-chick's bag..
Daddy always catches me! MAN!
Here I am eating lunch before the big song! Judith and Luke were by my side. Happy Birthday too meeeeeeee....
Look at Evan's face painting...love the glasses!!
To the LOVE of our Life...
We are so glad you had such a great day...you bring so much joy to our life...you are an absolute angel!
but it'll take too long to tell you it all. My day started with Mommy coming into my room at 6:15 am, with a camcorder, singing Happy Birthday. OY, all I wanted was milk!! Well, the rest of the day was fun...we played, Grandma came over to play too! I got my photo-shoot done, see.... 
and Mommy at one

I sure am going to miss all the fun of my birthday!
