At this time last year, I was sitting in a hospital room with Jessica. I just watched the doctor break Jessica’s water and the countdown started. It was a rollercoaster of a day with waiting to see if Jessica was progressed far enough along to kick-start labor. Little did we know at this point in the morning that it would be a short (or long depending on the time of day) 12 hours later that Evelyn would be here!

Today is Evelyn’s birthday! We celebrate our first year as parents and having the most wonderful little girl we could ever imagine having. The past year has been a whirlwind and the most fantastic experience I have had in my life. Seeing this beautiful girl grow and develop over the last year has truly astounded me.
At the same time of celebrating Evelyn’s birthday, I want to congratulate and celebrate Jessica on her first year as a mommy. She has been amazing. Jessica has taught Evelyn so much and as her personality develops, she has become and continues to act more and more like her momma. She is every bit a mini version of Jessica that she could be.
Happy Momiversary Ladycakes!!!

My little lady, over the past year I have enjoyed seeing you smile, watching you learn your surroundings, and experiencing your wonderful personality develop. You are the happiest baby I have ever seen. Your little cries when I drop you off at daycare or get ready to leave for work break my heart and make me want to call out and spend the day with you. But the excitement you get when I come home or pick you up from daycare melts my heart and makes it all better.
I can’t wait to see where the next year takes us. No matter what happens, it’s me, you, and momma, and we wouldn’t have it any other way! Happy Birthday little lady. I love you!
