Ashlynn Grace is ONE!

My baby is ONE! It's hard for me to believe that that day last year I was meeting Ashlynn Grace for the very first time. My sweet angel baby. This time I cherished her tiny-ness, her small cries, when she'd sleep more than she was awake. I awed at her sitting up, crawling, taking her first steps. I can't believe she is already one. It has flown by. She is a busy little baby, doesn't want to miss out on anything, but she has a smile that will melt your heart. 

 We did an nontraditional first bday this year. Since she was 5 days after Mika and it was the last week of school, we made one of her favorite desserts, Brownies!

 We are trying to get her to blow...

But really she just wanted to grab it. Kaylin blew the candle out for her so I re lit it only to have her stare at it and we all blew it out again anyway!

This is what the adults had!

 She had only a few gifts, her big one was an airplane she could pull and it made lots of fun noises with lights. Of course the 4 yr old plays with it more than she does....but she loves unwrapping it. That's her extremely happy/excited face...

Happy Birthday Ashlynn!!
