The countdown is on...less than a month until our "baby" girl is ONE! I have mixed emotions about Mary Lee turning one. I am sad because my little girl is growing up too quickly. However, I am overwhelmed with joy to see this baby girl that we prayed so long for grow into a beautiful little girl and eventually a talented young woman. I am humbled to know that God chose me to be the mommy of this precious miracle, and I am thrilled beyond belief to watch God's blessings in her life come to fruition. I never knew one little girl could bring one proud momma so much happiness! I love you sweet angel Mary Lee!
Things to remember about Mary Lee at 11 months old:
- The way you pull up on EVERYTHING
- All the new sounds/words you are saying - MaMa (Yea, finally!), DaDa, Paise Ba (Praise Baby), bah (bear), pu (puppy), bye bye
- The way you LOVE to feed Mommy and Daddy
- How much you love your fruit...especially mandarin oranges
- How cute you are when you wave the wrong way
- They way you like to get a book, toy, or coaster and put it under your hand to make you slide across the floor faster
- They way you love to walk holding somebody's hands but will not do it unless you have BOTH hands
- The way you love to push lion (push toy) and walk behind him

"I'm ready for my bath Mommy!"
"Thank goodness Mommy and Daddy finally turned my car seat around! I can see the world around me now! Here I am getting ready for my first ride"
"What's the big deal Mommy? I'm just sittin in my car seat!"
"Yep, I can still sleep facing forward!"
"Mommy, I know I'm cute and all, but please stop taking my picture!"
