I like to make birthdays a big deal around here, because of course they are! We are celebrating the life of my little Anela Lene. Her birthday was right after Christmas, which made me very unprepared and scrambling at the last minute. I've learned from my mistake and will have everything done for her birthday before Christmas this year, I hope! Well I can't believe a year has gone by so quickly! Bryan made this darling video of her whole 1st year, and just watching it, seeing her at the hospital, her first days, weeks, months, it has all just gone by too fast! I wish I could stop time! I love my babies, and want them to stay babies forever! It seems like overnight she's gone from a baby to a toddler. She's been "cruisin" along things forever now, and just a week ago she started to let go and take 2 or 3 steps between things. Well Saturday she let go and walked across the whole room! It's crazy I have another toddler now. Her and Bryson have actuallly been playing together really well now too, instead of her just wanting to destroy anything he is playing with. It's so fun to see them grow!
"Ohh yummy! My very own cake!"
Ohh it's a happy day! She can wear barretts now! I can't believe it!
Best Buds!
"I love my new rocking chair!" I painted it and painted her name in pink on it, you can't tell really in the pic.
Daddy's girl!
The masterpieces! HAHAHA don't look too close! I don't claim to be a cake decorator, but they did really taste good, and I don't usually like cake!
Pretty girl!

ReplyDeleteHey sexy lady!!
ReplyDeleteYou are just as beautiful as I remember you, maybe even more so! Motherhood certainly suits you!! Then again, you were always so good with little "V" so that doesn't surprise me in the least. Bryson and Anela have the most beautiful big eyes and they look so alike!! Good genes me thinks...
LOVE YOU!
