My baby is 1

How did this happen??

This last year has gone by in a whirlwind!

I will never again have an infant to keep me awake at night.

This picture was taken on Monday after spending the day at the lake. It was 107 degrees outside, we were camping, so we improvised a bath for Bree. She was in heaven getting all dirty and eating watermelon.

Swinging at the park at play group in June.

This is Bree's Great-grandma Carley. They have a great bond...they share the same birthday
We are going to celebrate their birthdays together next week after the craziness of this week is over.
Picture taken at Thanksgiving 09. Bree was 5 months old


Family pictures in Oct. 09 She was and is still all eyes.

This is after she was born while I was in recovery. Was again not prepared for having a c-section early and had only a cell phone camera. Thank goodness we had that.
Born at 6 pounds even, and 19 inches long,

is now 16 pounds and 25 inches long.

Bree at 1:

1.She loves to eat and is my best eater I have ever had. Loves Bananas (fresh), mac and cheese, Ritz crackers, scrambled eggs, PB&J, and anything we are eating.

2. Playing anything. Peek-a-boo, cars with her brother, she even makes car noises, but she still loves her babies. When she is getting into something and I tell her no, she goes as fast as she can to finish the demolish before I get to her.

3. She thinks her name is "NO"

4.She is my first kid to walk before 1. That is with a lot of help from her sisters.

5. She is always happy, and everyone notices it, but I would gladly give her to you in the middle of the night when camping.

6. Still does not sleep through the night even though I quit nursing 3 weeks ago.

7.She loves her brother Jacob.
8. She hates sacrament meeting, not being able to move around is horrible to her.

9. Loves it when her sister takes her for walks.

10. Loves her brothers John Deere tractor almost as much as Jacob does.

11. We love Bree so much we can't imagine our life without her.
