My baby is one

Bare with this post because for some reason my pictures won't arrange and so they are so random. Of course I didn't get to many pictures of her because I was too busy filming it instead. She wasn't too sure about all the attention but she liked it. We had been singing happy birthday to her all day and that part she loved. She would do a little head bobbin' to it. It didn't take her too long to figure out her cake. She loved every bite. I noticed that because she is #5 that it wasn't too exciting for anyone else except Luke and I. I think that is probably the only thing about being the last baby that stinks. Everything has already been done 4 times before so it just isn't that exciting to anyone. I think the best thing about being the baby (besides being spoiled rotten) is that she gets 4 times the love and attention than the others did. She gets laughed at four times as much, she gets four times the kisses, four times the playing, she gets pushed in the swing four times more, she gets four times the treats. She gets four times everything! She never has to cry because she gets whatever she wants from any of the other four. I would say we are all lucky to have this bonus in our family.




Kali turned one on Tues. July 21st! I honestly can't believe how fast this past year has gone by. It seems like it was yesterday when the Dr. told me I was 3 months pregnant. I was in shock and couldn't believe that I was going to have another baby! I WAS DONE! It took some time getting use to the idea. As soon as it sank in, which took awhile, we were all SO excited. We are so blessed to have this sweet little girl in our family. We are thankful that Kenzi secretly prayed her here. She has got to be the best and easiest baby ever (next to Kason). She just hangs out and loves more than anything to be with her brothers and sisters. A few things about our little Jett.
  • she walks all over the place
  • she clicks her tongue
  • she waves to everyone
  • she loves to take baths
  • she sucks her two little fingers
  • she is the best sleeper
  • she loves the stairs
  • she crinkles her nose when she smiles big
  • weighs almost 15 lbs.
  • almost wears a size 1 shoe
  • loves to eat and eat
  • dances whenver she hears any kind of music
  • gives huge open mouth kisses to anyone
  • she is so cute

I can't imagine our lives without her. I can't get enough of her. She is always so excited to see me, even if I just left the room for 5 seconds. The kids always want her and she is so entertained with all of them. She especially loves her crazy brother Kooper. I am so glad that they are so close. He needs her as much as she needs him. I love that she is the tiniest little thing. It makes her being my baby last that much longer. She can't get close enough to me for a snuggle. I am thankful everyday of my life for her. She is one of the greatest 6 blessings in my life!



Happy Birthday little bug!

Oh Linde, she is just the most adorable little girl. I can't even imagine what it would be like to have a small baby. Lucky you!! Emilee was my smallest baby and she weighed about 20 lbs. when she turned one. Isaac weighed 15 lbs when he was 2 months old and 29 lbs when he was one.
