Happy 1st Birthday

Ashlynn!
I can't believe you are one!
This past year has flown by. You are a little miracle, just like each of your siblings. God made me wait for 10 years for you, but honestly, I thank Him for every day I waited. I thank Him because during those years God made your biggest brother, a big brother x 2 and placed your next to biggest brother and big sister into our family.
You are the perfect 4th child, and He knew you would be!

You are a bundle of love.
You are the definition of 'easy going'.
Your blue eyes sparkle with joy, soon to be mischief I am am sure!
You babble important stuff.
You almost always have a smile.
You have a healthy appetite.
You are our first baby with curls, you got them from your Grandma Jane.
You aren't walking yet, but you sure do move fast.
You sleep from 8:30 pm until 8 am.
You take two naps, an hour morning one and a 2 1/2 hour afternoon one.
You love to bath, swim and play in the water.
You sleep with a penguin.

You eat a banana every morning for breakfast.
You love green vegetables.
You've never had formula.
You have 8 teeth.
You are wearing 12 - 18 month clothes.
You've had 5! ear infections in the last 4 months. So we've taken you to the chiro.
You've been to Florida and Texas, and flown on a plane.
You are a mama's baby.


I love you little one!
