It is SO hard for me to believe, but tomorrow we will be celebrating your 1st Birthday. I really have no idea where the past year has gone.
A year ago Daddy and I were in the hospital waiting for you to make your entrance into the world. Tonight I am sitting on the couch watching Daddy put together your birthday present. A year ago we were so unsure of what to expect from having a baby. Tonight I can tell you that this adventure has been so much more than I ever could have expected.
You must have made me laugh out loud at least once a day - every day. You have the best personality - and are such a friendly girl You are happy to go to people and will smile at everyone (especially boys). You find happiness in the simple things...reading your books, playing with your toys and taking things out of baskets.
You have always been a good eater and sleeper - spoiling us by sleeping through the night at 1 month. Right now you are mastering taking naps in your crib (whew!) and you are eating a solid diet of people food. Your favorites are broccoli, cheese, and pretty much any meats we are cooking. You are also drinking out of a straw cup....which makes you think you can share my drinks too :)
You are all over the place. You are not walking yet (which shows how much I know since I thought you would be walking by 10 months) - but you are not far off. I think you are such a speed crawler that you can't imagine getting there faster on your feet. You love to be chased - and you laugh the whole way! You've said Mama and Dada and you say LOTS of other words, we just haven't figured out what they mean yet.
Quinn - to say that you are the best thing we've ever done would be the biggest understatement of all time. You've made me smile bigger, laugh harder and probably cry a little more than ever (though they are almost always "happy tears"). Though it is hard for me to believe that you are already one year old, part of me feels like you've always been here. I am so proud to be your mommy. Love you!
