The big ONE!


Our little Haley turned one this past weekend!  We had her birthday party on Valentine's Day and did a heart theme with pinks and reds.  My Mom and Dad were able to come to the party and I am so appreciative that they made the trip out.  We celebrated with all of our closest friends and even got a surprise visit from Bart and Raven!  They flew in for the weekend to visit family and friends and didn't tell us, so when I saw them walking in the front door I was completely shocked.  It was such a great surprise.  Hanna was very excited to see them.  Thank you to everyone for celebrating this special day with us!  It wouldn't have been the same without you.

Haley has changed so much and has had a full year of firsts.  She is such a big girl and tries to do everything her big sister does.  She loves to eat and wants to try everything she sees.  Some of her favorites are yogurt covered raisins, goldfish crackers, blueberries, strawberries, bread, crayons and chap stick.  She is babbling like crazy and I know she is trying her best to communicate.  It will be fun and interesting to watch her over the next few months as she learns new things and explores her world.  She may be the baby of the family but she has a voice and wants to be heard!  She completes our family and we love her so so much!
