Happy Birthday Aaron!

The birthday boy with his favorite pie (Coconut Cream).. look at that signature smile! :)

We celebrated Aaron's 29th birthday while we were in town!  My original due date with Kieley was on Aaron's birthday but I'm glad they both have their own days to celebrate. :)  Aaron wanted to go bowling and for the first time I was on the winning team.  It must have been the birthday boy's magic.:)  Happy Birthday Aaron, we love you!

PS.. Thank you Aunt Stacy for taking these pictures. :)

Merry Christmas

Christmas morning.. I know I look amazing, right?!?  ;)

We had our traditional Christmas Eve dinner and stayed up late talking and playing games.  Then the next morning we woke up early to see what Santa Clause brought us.  It was so fun to see Kieley's expressions as everybody unwrapped their gifts.  Christmas was so special with our little one. :)

Kieley's 1st Birthday Party!

Kieley's Princess Cake

While we were in town with family and friends we got to celebrate Kieley's 1st birthday!  I decided to throw her a Princess theme party on Saturday even though her actual birthday was on Sunday.  It was so much fun!

  I can still remember when we found out we were having a little girl it was the most exciting news!  I immediately started dreaming about her and what she would be like and how fun she was going to be and to be honest I still feel like I am dreaming at times.  Kieley has surpassed every thought and dream Aaron and I had, she is amazing!  So smart, so beautiful, and so funny!  She is truly our little princess.  The past year has brought us so much joy we can't wait to see what the future brings with her.  We love you lots little Princess!

Special Thank You:  I have to give a special thank you to my two friends, Laurie and RaQuelle.  Laurie the invitations were exactly what I wanted and RaQuelle I wouldn't have these amazing pictures if it weren't for you.  Thank you girls!  And a special thank you to my older brother Ryan and his wife Melissa.  I couldn't have had this party without your house..you guys are the best!  Love you!
