Noah's One Year Photos

:)

Noah At One

He is almost 14 months old, and it is incredibly hard to believe. I cannot believe that he used to fit in my belly! Now, his big round belly is nearly as big as mine (well, that's not entirely true, certainly not after ice cream night...but close)! The more we get to know him, the more deeply we fall in love with him. It is an amazing experience!

He is walking, or actually more like bobbling about - but not regularly yet. His favorite mode of getting around is still on all 4's. He's killin' my biceps!! :)

Love is in the Snow

My wonderful husband left me loving notes on his way into work this morning...:)

And, What a Year It Has Been...

• New job
• Outpatient Surgery
• 2 ER visits, totaling 21 stitches
• Carly and Matt’s Bridal & Bachlorette Parties & Wedding
• Lydia’s funeral

Turning Twenty-Eight & Hitting The One Year Mark

I turned twenty-eight yesterday. Another year older...another year wiser? It seems like time is fiercely marching by. It is like water through the fingers. Twenty-seven was a wonderful year for me...this really is an amazing chapter in life. Watching Noah triple his body size and develop from a tiny 'fragile' infant to a curious babbling baby has been cool beyond description. Striving myself to become the mother I want to be has been completely eye-opening. I am so grateful for my life.

Here are the bday stars - Mama and Noah and family photos from Thanksgiving::




















Catching up from the holidays has been intense, but I hope to have lots of Christmas and One-Year bday pics posted soon!
