~This time one year ago~




As the title would suggest, I am reflecting back to December 3rd 2007. This was the day we would welcome our 'impatient' daughter into the world at 5:59 am via c-section. Although that day did not go as planned, we still ended up with the most incredibly beautiful daughter. Since that day we have endured sleepless nights too numerous to count, laundry by the basketful's, lots of dirty diapers, toys scattered about, teething, bottles and lost pacifiers and many days spent in our PJ's. But besides all that we have also had lots of cuddling, sweet slobbery baby kisses, giggles, grins and smiles that will melt your heart, little fingers that grasp yours and won't let go and a heart so full of love that it can not contain it.

I am amazed at how much she has grown over the last year from 7# 6oz to 22# 10oz and from 19 1/4 inches to 29 inches. She is now walking however she still prefers crawling as her primary means of transportation. I can only wonder and anticipate what the next year will have in store for us. I'm sure she will be even more busier and talking up a storm and giving her brothers a run for their money.

Here are some pics of Sara celebrating her birthday at Pawpaw's and Mawmaw's house in AL. Sara and her cousin "J" got to celebrate their first birthday together, by the time they both had their fill of the cake they were covered in icing and required a much needed bath.


HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY SARA!
