All About Addie

(Taken from the family personal blog)

Here are some things about Miss Addie that I just don't want to forget.

First 12 months:

     Stats: 10.1 lbs (23.26%) 22.5 in (55.92%)
Three months - Rolled over from tummy to back.
Four months - Rolled over from back to tummy. Went on first plane trip to Colorado and first road trip to St. George.

It's been an amazing year being her mom. Any fears I may have had while I was pregnant about being a mom to a little baby girl has vanished. Besides Danny she is my reason to smile. She's my happiness. Love doesn't even seem like a strong enough word to describe the emotion I feel towards her but until I can think of a stronger word I'll continue to let her know every single day that I love her. I truly love her. Eternity is going to be awesome with her in it.

Happy birthday to miss Addie and happy one year anniversary of being parents to Danny and myself.
