Pictures from the party...

Here are some pictures from Jessi's party. I think her favorite present was the box from a Willow Tree figurine from Gramie. My favorite was her first tutu, thanks Great Aunt Michele!! Enjoy!

Well, She did it!!

Jessica Turned One!! It was a great day. She still isn't done opening presents, it was very overwelming for her. Jessi did enjoy her ice cream cake!! It made her hands
very cold - haha. It's 8:30 a.m. here and she and daddy are still in bed, we pooped them out.
The day was amazing for me too. I was kinda in a fog, I had a baby a year ago. It is a surreal experience. I still can't believe it. I remember the entire day of her birth. And each day since. Jessica is a total blessing, God is good. We love her more than anything and I look forward to each and every day of our lives together.

Katie - WE LOVE THE BOOK!!! How cute. She loves pop ups! And we don't have the two videos you got - thank you so much!!!
love you!!

Today is the Big #1!!!!

Okay, well, it's Thursday night, but I'm being proactive. My baby girl is 1.
This has been the most life changing and an amazing day-to-day year. David
and I have both learned more about ourselves and about being parents. We've
only learned a grain of sand from the beach at this point.
One thing is for sure, Jessica is one spoiled first child. We've bought her everything!! We needed new toys anyway. I'll update with some pictures of her birthday weekend!!
I'm posting some pictures from our spurn of the moment trip to Maine last weekend. It was beautiful. We took some pictures on the beach, you may see one of them later on in our Christmas picture, but act surprised:-)
Hi Katie!!

Hanging At Home

Gotta love Teacher's Convention. I'm conventioning at home with my daughter. She's been a bit under the weather and trying mommy's patience. Jessi has her first real cold, which isn't too bad for being almost 1 (yes 1-can't believe it). We decided to go out today and do some pre-birthday shopping and she SCREAMED the entire way home from the store. So it's nap time and I can collect myself. I am still amazed by her every move!! And love her more then anything!!
