Happy Birthday Abigail!

Our little Babby turned 1 this Thursday. We can't believe how fast we've gotten here. We celebrated the beginning of the day by installing Abby's new big girl car seat. She could not handle being able to see out the window, and her dad driving at the same time. She loved it.

We headed over to breakfast to celebrate before my doctors appointment. We ordered pancakes and sausage and things, but the only thing Abby wanted was Steven's hot chocolate. Seriously. She ate almost all his whipped cream, and then continued to be spoon fed his drink.

Even though we knew that Abby considered her hot chocolate the best gift of all, at the doctor's office we found out that her next best gift will be to have a sister in July. We were so excited to find out that we are having another girl!

We headed over to Grandma and Grandpa Daines house later in the day for Abby's birthday dinner. I shouldn't have been surprised that they would go all out, but they totally did. Abby felt so special, and we had so much fun!


Here is Abby with her Great-Grandma Daines.

We feel so lucky to live close enough to share these moments together.


We love you so much, we can't believe you've only been with us for a year!

What a wonder she is!! She watches EVERYTHING! This year has been laced with peace because Abby has deemed it to be so inspite of all obstacles. I can only imagine that as she begins to play back the insights her "watching" has inspired how much richer this year will be!! Love, mom/gma
