Happy 1st Birthday!!

From my newborn baby
TO MY....
Big Girl 1 Year Old



Emily Grace turned one January 5th. I can't believe how fast her first year went. Unfortunately, she woke up with a 102 degree fever on her birthday so that was sad for all of us. We decided not to celebrate her birthday with cupcakes until later when she was feeling well. (Everyone but me (Kristen) got sick over the next couple of days.) She opened up some gifts on her birthday, but we ended up celebrating with my parents and sister a couple days after her birthday eating cupcakes and doing a couple more gifts. Here a few pictures!

Cuddles with Daddy right after waking up with a fever. Poor little girl. Opening up her birthday gifts with Megan.
So many new toys after Christmas and her birthday being so close together!




Happy 1st Birthday!! She dove right into her cupcake and loved it!
Pretty much finished off birthday cupcake. YUMMY!

Just a little update: She is 18 pounds 2 ounces (10%) and 29 1/2 inches tall (50%).She just started taking a few steps here and there although she usually sticks to crawling or walking on her knees. (She is so funny to watch walk on her knees!). She doesn't say a lot of words, but does say, dada, mama, hi, dog, and bath. She LOVES her baths (Obviously as it was one of her first words!) She loves playing with babies and enjoys the outdoors. She is my sweet little cuddler who is very special to our family. So thankful to the Lord for giving us our precious Emily Grace!
