Happy birthday baby Blaire

Blaire turned one on the 14th. The saturday before we had a family party at the park. It was perfect! She got lots of baby dolls and puppy toys :)

The day of Blaires birthday, Logan ended up having to get another surgery on his tooth after he fell and cracked his crown. They were able to fix it back to new, but it was not a happy moment telling Logan goodbye again while they did the surgery. It was completely heartbreaking, but he came out like a champ and is as good as new! We are very proud of how brave he was!

Blaire is not quite walking but she is SO close. She is so tiny that it looks so funny watching her. She is such a sweet baby. Talks so much and copies Logan on everything. She loves playing puppies and having us crawl around with her and bark with her. She is such a sweety and gives loves to everything. She can wave, crawl super fast, stand, furniture surf like a champ, high five, clap, peek a boo! and so much more! She is super good at talking and can say dada, mama, byebye, puppy, bubbles and more. She tries to say everything we tell her. You are always taking lids off and putting them back on.

Blaire,

In this short and fast year, you have exceeded all of our hopes about you. You have learned everything so fast and have been such an easy baby. You are beautiful and so perfect. Daddy and I love you so much. We are so proud of you and Logan and are so proud to be your parents. In one year you have grown and turned in to this little sweet, smart toddler. We cant wait for another year with you. We love you so much baby girl!!

Here are some one year photos I did of you last week

Life moves fast

We have had a few good weeks around here. Stressful, yes. Good, yes.

Blaire is getting so close to walking. She is just this tiny little body and it looks so funny. She can stand and she has taken a few steps. Next week is her first birthday. What. The. Heck. One whole year with this girl has made us one happy family. She grows and learns SO fast. She is a little copy cat. Copies everything Logan does. It is the cutest thing how much she looks up to him. She loves shoes. Loves when daddy brushes her hair. Hates brushing her teeth and eats EVERYTHING she can fit into her mouth.

Logan is our little buddy. Talks to us like it is NOTHING. He has complete conversations with us and comes to us all excited to tell us cool stories. Makes my eyes swell. He is so protective of Blaire and always runs to tell me if he thinks there is something wrong. We switched Blaire forward facing, a week early but I believe she is ready. She is not so sure about mommy not sitting by her anymore, but she will grow to get used to it.

I have had bad migraines all week. Rory has been a champ about taking care of me and the kids. In fact, he is out at the gas station with Logan while Blaire and I cuddle and he is getting us snacks.

I have been keeping busy with photo sessions. Love to meet new people and create beautiful memories. I am proud of how far I have come. I have learned so much.

This week we will be doing Blaires birthday photos and I can not wait! Logan gets his surgery the day of Blaires birthday next week. Logans best friend and cousin has be sedated to get a cavity filled the same day at the same place so I am hoping having little Knox there will make things less scary for him.
