Birthday Girl


Ava turned 1 last week ("say what???"...I know.)
Do you know what she got for her birthday?
Lots of things.
A fever. A runny/stuffy nose. A cough.
She is finally starting to act like her old self again thank goodness.
You know, it's not until she is sick and then not sick that I really realize what a happy, sweet baby she is. I have just been spoiled. I am grateful that she is healthy. I am grateful for her snuggles (she is the only one of my kids who will snuggle when she is not sick.) I am grateful for her giggles. I am grateful that I am not paying for formula anymore.
But most of all, I am so grateful to be her Mom.
Seriously.

She is stunning! And so are your pictures! I need you to live closer.
I can't believe she is one already and I hardly know her. She looks so much fun! You need to make a trip up here.
