She's O N E

My Sadie girl turned one a couple weeks ago and I am still trying to wrap my head around it.
A few days before her birthday I was feeling a mix of emotions about it for some reason. I feel like time is flying by and she is growing so fast. Everyone warns you about it and they weren't kidding. I remember the day she was born so clearly and it definitely doesn't feel like one year ago. I love this quote.
"The days are long and yet the years are short."
It's a good reminder to cherish every day with her,
This past year has been one of the best years of my life and also one of the hardest. So many changes in one year.
Sadie has always been my constant source of joy. Her infectious personality brings so much happiness to our life. She is always making friends where ever she goes. Everyone loves to stop and chat with our smiley, laughing girl.I feel so honored and fortunate that I get to stay home and raise her. I love being her mama.
Yesterday we celebrated her first birthday with friends and family! Thanks to everyone who was a part of her special day!

Our family. We are so blessed.

Happy Father's Day!

There is nothing better in this world than watching the man you love, fall in love his baby girl. Since she came into our world she softened her daddy's heart.


He holds her ever so gently.
She smiles and laughs when he comes home from work and shows him her love with sloppy kisses and giggles.

He's taught her to explore her world and touch bugs.

He takes her on adventures into the mountains where she is so mesmerized that she doesn't even make a peep.

He tucks her in so gently, watches her sleep and makes sure she always has her teddy.

He plays with her and makes her laugh and giggle uncontrollably. Something only a Daddy can do.

He carries her on his shoulders so proudly.
" I never knew how much I loved your Daddy
until I saw how much he loved you."

He loves her with his whole heart.

He's teaching her about prayer and faith and about the amazing God we serve.

He works hard to provide for our family.

He's leading our family and doing an amazing job!

Happy Father's Day to the daddy of my little girl!
