One year ago today...my life went from this...
to this...
Having Kinley has been the biggest blessing in my life. To think about the magnitude of what this past year has meant to me and Ben is overwhelming. She has been nothing but an absolute blessing to us. She is so sweet, incredibly funny, always entertaining, and more than I could have ever have asked for. At the beginning....every breath she took just made me breathe easier. We have had a few scary moments...just to remind us how precious her life is. Her milestones have been thrilling and it is like I could never be prouder of another person. We are so thankful to have such a happy, healthy baby. We don't deserve it....and we know how blessed we are. I am so excited to celebrate Kinley's birthday...definitely more than I ever have been about any of my birthdays. Just remembering the past year and that amazing day takes me back. It is so vivid. I hope I never forget a moment.
Now I know why ever year on my birthday my mom always recounted that 10...16...18...or 27 years ago she could remember every detail of the day I was born and would recite it all over again. It is not to remind me...but, to remind her.
Countless memories....moments you wish would never end....365 days...12 months....I wish I could stop time...but, since I can't...here is a picture from every month of Kinley's last 12.
Kinley's one month pictures...she basically slept through the entire shoot.
Two months...we spent a lot of time hanging out with all the grandparents
Three months....we took her to Cancun
Four months...look at those teeth
Five months...we got some great pics at Aubrey's birthday party
Half-Birthday
Seven months our little bumble bee had her first Halloween
Eight months
Nine months
Ten months
Eleven months
Month Twelve....I just can't believe it.
Happy Birthday baby. I hope next year holds just as many wonderful memories. We love you!
