Happy Birthday Olivia Adele!

I have waited as long as possible to write this post. To put into words the way my heart feels is impossible.

When I think back to the day you entered the world, I always get goosebumps and my eyes always well up with tears. 

Olivia, my dear, you mean EVERYTHING to us. You are our world. Your daddy & I have TREASURED every. single. moment with you. I can honestly say that. You are the best thing we have ever done and our greatest accomplishment!

The other night, we stayed up late talking about you. Talking about all of the cute, funny, silly and beautiful things you did that day. We just can not believe you are OURS. 

The love we have for you is unlike ANYTHING. We just ADORE you. 

You have become much more independent and while it is SO amazing. It is a little heart breaking at the same time. To think that one day you may not need me...oh my gosh I can't even think about it...

Even though you are now a "little girl," you will ALWAYS be my baby. 

I am SO proud to be your mama. You make me smile and laugh every. single. day. You bring SO much joy to our life. You complete our family. I hope when you look back at your childhood you remember happy times and have great memories. 

Watching you grow, learn and change every day is so amazing. I just LOVE you. You are beautiful, smart, sensitive, caring, funny, silly, fearless, loving, and just perfect. Gosh, you are perfect. 

One of my favorite things to do is just stare at you and watch you sleep. I don't think there is anything sweeter! Hearing you breath and laugh are my 2 favorite sounds.

This past year has been SO memorable! You literally went from baby to toddler in the blink of an eye! You started crawling, weaned yourself off a bottle, started walking, then running. You started talking and even started using the big girl potty!

I could go on and on and on about you, after all you are my favorite subject!

I have created a 2nd year video for you of some of my favorite clips from the past year.

I love you SO much babydoll and ALWAYS will!!
