Not so wordless Wednesday

 We have been parents for a year.

I can hardly believe that a whole year has passed since the greatest person I have ever met in my life was born. Our pumpkin entered the world at 8:41pm on October 17, 2011. After a long and hard 47 hour labor, I was so thankful to have her in my arms. At 5lbs. 13oz. and 18in. long she had stolen our hearts. 
I never knew love like I do now that she exists. 

Our first family photo.

As I reflect on this past year there I cannot believe how much has changed. My daughter climbs couches, and dances when she watches the fresh beat band. She eats whole tomatoes, and says Hi! when daddy comes through the door. She makes love grow every single day.

Singing happy birthday. Time to blow out the candle.
 
Good bye first year. We have conquered you.
 I cannot wait to see what life has in store for us next. I'm ready!
