A Mother's Love

With Mother's Day just passing I wanted to take a look back at the amazing journey we've been on since the birth of our daughter Amelia. I never could have imagined what joy could be brought to us, but can hardly remember what it was like before her. I have more respect and admiration for mothers now since I've become one myself, and only hope to be the best mother possible for Amelia! I hope that in the years to come we can be friends but most of all she knows that I will always be her mother in every way-to soothe her tears, share her joys, uplift her spirit, listen to her, watch her, protect her, and so much else a mother does. Here are a few pictures of Amelia and me...

It's been a while since our last post so we've got lots of updates. It seems like every day we get closer to Amelia's first birthday just gets faster and faster. I don't know why but here lately she has seemed like such a big girl! She has gotten much better at using her sippy cup by herself, feeds herself finger foods (still eats ANYTHING), and is getting so curious! She loves to walk while holding our hands, pushes her push toy all around the house, and creeps around all of our furniture and even the walls and windows, but she just won't let go for anything! It's so funny-I'm certainly not rushing anything-I know she'll be walking soon enough and she'll be even less of a baby.
Amelia was so excited to ride in her big girl car seat for the first time!
looking cool in her shades;)

"patty cake, patty cake"
