That bittersweet day arrived. Miss Abigail Mae had her FIRST birthday! Her big brothers and I took her to the farmer to celebrate - and she didn't cry, so she must have enjoyed it. After daddy got home, we went to the swimming pool. She really likes that... While this past year has been anything but easy on our family it has been a wonderful adventure. It is hard to believe one little girl could add so much love and happiness to a household. None of us can see her without beaming - and she more often than not returns the smile. 99% of her awake time is spent smiling, squealing, clapping, or singing. (The other one percent is screaming that we aren't feeding her fast enough.) This past month she started crawling on hands and knees and she is quick! Just this past week she and Grandma Bonnie worked a lot on pulling up. (I think that means we have some time before she is walking and I am quite alright with that.) She continues to be an excellent eater and is totally focused. She does not utter a word until she is done. (Unless, like I mentioned before, we are not serving her fast enough.) She still loves her brothers, although more from a distance - as they love her just as much but with a lot more touching. She is getting in to books and loves to sit and turn pages. I think she is actually getting her top two molars this week, which brings her teeth total to 10. We just couldn't have asked for a better baby had we picked one ourselves. We have loved these past 365 days and look forward to many, many more. Happy birthday, baby girl!!!
