Caroline is 1!

You have turned the big ONE! I am so happy to be priviledged to watch you grow and develop every single day!  You are WALKING! and have been for about 2 weeks.  You are always on the go and hardly ever crawl!  It is so hard to believe that you have been here for a year already!  Your daddy and I are the most fortunate people on the planet to have you and your sister as our children.  You make our lives so bright with your wonderful personality and sweet disposition.  Your birthday marks 1 year that we have had a very sucessful bf relationship.  You have recieved nothing but momma's milk since you were born. I am very proud to say that I didn't have to supplement you even once and you were a big eater!  We are giving you more and more solids to eat and you are loving them.  You want to try EVERYTHING that we are eating and we let you as much as we can.  You seem to do a pretty good job even though you only have TWO teeth! Last night we had speghetti to celebrate your birthday.  I don't know which you enjoyed the most, the food or the mess you made :)  You are such a funny girl, just like your big sister.  The bond you share with your sister is so great to watch. You love one another so much, and my greatest hope is that you two will be best friends for life.  Annabelle is so proud to be your big sister, she takes such great care of you.  I am so proud to be your momma!  You are such a beautiful girl who looks just like her momma!  This past year you have experienced so many things, I hope that we are fortunate to continue to have these experiences for you and for your sister.   Momma is still wearing you, but these days it is mostly in the Boba instead of the Moby.  Momma is going to work on the side hole so that you can continue to ride in the Moby.  We have had such great times together with it.  We are proud that your signing abilities are increasing, you can sign, more, eat, all done and we are working on some others.  You occassionally say momma, dadda but we expect your language will explode in the upcoming months.  We are looking forward to celebrating your 1st birthday on Saturday with all your family and friends who love you so much.  We also look forward to celebrating many more birthdays.  We love you so much baby butt!


Love,
MOMMA!
