Emalee's Party

Geez it has taken me forever to actually sit down and do this! Emalee's 1st birthday party was a such a blast! Thankfully the nasty flu bug that she had went away just in time for her big birthday bash. We were surrounded by family and friend's and Emalee was showered with love. She received a lot of "big girl" toys, which she constantly plays with. A little part of me was sad to pack up all of the baby toys. :( And of course her favorite part of the whole party was playing in her cake!! Thank goodness the frosting didn't stain her! It was such a great day, a little bitter sweet, but everyone had a good time especially Emalee. :)

Happy Birthday Emalee!!

Well we made it through the first year...I can't believe it's already been that long!! It seems like yesterday I was in the hospital being rushed around for an emergency c-section. Then we endured the 15 day NICU stay that I thought I would never survive. To think that Emalee was a preemie...if you saw her now you'd know she has no preemie side effects! :)

We are looking forward to spending this weekend with family and friends as we celebrate our beautiful baby girl's 1st birthday.

Happy Birthday Emalee, Mommy & Daddy Love You!!

Emalee's First Year

5 days and counting....

I can't believe in only 5 days my little princess is going to be a year old!! She is growing so fast, it seems like only yesterday we were rushing to the hospital to have her (6 weeks early)! She truly is my reason for living. She brings a smile to my face every day, and I have enjoyed being home with her, watching her reach each and every milestone. Her newest discoveries are giving kisses (yes, sometimes with an open mouth), feeding you her food, and clapping when you say "Yay Emalee!!" She has the cutest little giggle and she smiles all the time, even when she's throwing a fit :) I will be sure to post her birthday bash pictures, along with all the others that I have from her first year!
