Birthday Girl

For anyone that actually ever reads this, it's been a while. I know. Life gets crazy with a kid and getting a new job and Spence getting a new job etc....well, thats all i'm gonna say about that! just wanted to give an update of the last while. First off, Blakely turned 1! I can't believe how time flies. but seriously, that was the fastest year of my life. I dont know how, but with kids i think the time just never slows down. Which is good..and bad. I can't believe the difference a year makes.

since i haven't really posted since she was born, I thought I'd share a few of my fav pics from the last year, cuz if you're like me, I'd rather see a bunch of pictures than read a huge novel of text...

picture overload? probably!!! little update for anyone that has made it this far and wanting some text... Blakely is now walking! full out. and getting pretty good. She is a bit of a fireball sometimes and I'm worried she is going to be a bit of a spazz like I was. She is such a fast learner and can pick things up from just watching me do it. She is also definately a girl. She loves to brush her hair, use my make up brushes, play with her kitchen, dolls and stuffed animals. She is really friendly and makes friends everywhere we go. She waves to EVERYONE at the grocery store and has started to hug everyone.Blakely loves music and loves to dance and sing. She loves her bunny and teddy and cannot sleep without both of them. Even when I sing her a lullaby at night in the rocking chair we have to have both with us. and since she's getitng so big i can hardly hold all three of them. It's been so much fun to see her personality and watch her grow. and since she just turned one we had a little birthday party for her. thanks to everyone who came! it was so fun to have friends and family here to celebrate with us. can't wait to see what another year brings.
