Today my littlest baby turned one. I was completely surprised by the overwhelming emotions that surfaced from this occasion. I love our Baby Alice so SO SO much. I am so grateful that she is in our family right now. She is one of my greatest sources of peace. We love you Baby Alice.
So here are some interesting things about BA(what we call her for short-Baby Alice:)
-Whereas Jane was a super mommy from the time she came out of the womb, BA is not all that interested in babies. But she LOVES books and trying to figure toys out. She loves stacking, and opening, and putting things away. She LOVES figuring things out.
-My first two babies were walking around 1. Baby Alice BARELY started taking her first steps last week.
-My first two kids had eight teeth by eight months and teethed like MANIACS(and truly turned US into maniacs with all the sleepless nights:). BA only had 6 teeth at eight months, but now she almost has all of her teeth. She is THE EASIEST teether in the world. She is so calm!
-My favorite time with BA is when I am holding her and rocking her to sleep in the mei tai. She plays pass the pacifier with me, and we just get to be peaceful together. I always feel, durring those times of quiet, that we are teaching eachother how to still our minds, bodies, and spirits together. I treasure these times everyday.:)
-BA smiles SO BIG. It looks like her face is going to tear in two!:) SHe loves to laugh and play.
Baby Alice is such an angel, and we love her so much!
Happy Birthday Sweetheart!

She is such a sweet baby! I'm so thankful that my third, Katey is so calm and easy going, because that 3rd baby really turns EVERYONE'S world upside down. I hope that she had a great birthday.
Love,
Andrea
I can't believe she is already one. It seems like she was just born. What a cute little girl!
I CANNOT believe she is one! She sounds like a keeper. ;)
