SO funny

Many people have made observations about you lately and they all say the same thing: you are funny, you have spunk, and you love attention! Most people wouldnt be surprised by this because most babies love to giggle and play. But you...you are different. You KNOW what you are doing when you make that face and throw your head back to laugh. You KNOW that when you crunch up your face into a million dents and dimples and squeeze your eyes closed that people will smile and AWWWWWW over you. You work it, girl.

I can't wrap my head around the idea that you will be ONE in 9 days....where did the time go? I swear I was just sitting on the couch wrapping presents while you were busy shoving your heel into my ribs. I couldnt even sit down to eat Christmas dinner because there was too much pressure pushing up whenever I sat down. Today is the last day of work for me before break and last year at this time I recollect the feeling of my skin feeling like it was pulled as tight as it could possibly get. I was sure my belly button was going to rip open. The elastic of my pants couldnt stay up because the material would bind and roll all the way down from my round belly. I was so excited to meet you. I was so ready for this adventure. Now almost one year later your heels dig into me from the outside as you scramble to nurse as fast as you can. Even Owen laughs when you spot the mark and come at me, mouth wide open, say OOOOOOOOOM, and latching as fast as you can. Its actually a little scary! haha You are walking almost full time and you can mimic most sounds. You talk ALL THE TIME. I've never seen anything like it. You are the girl I always dreamed of, and more. You are MINE :) ok ok, OURS :)


love, mom
