Nellie Mae is 1!


Nellie has been such a joy in our family. Unfortunately she has grown up FARRRRRR too fast. It brings a tear to my eye just thinking how fast it flew. And for those that know me best know I have the worst memory ever. I seriously cannot remember Nellie when she was super brand new. I think post pregnant head puts you in such a fog, which in some cases is a blessing, that life just whizzes by and the babies grow up without us even being able to comprehend and take it all in. Thank goodness for blogs and scrap booking to document all of my lost memories. In the first few months after Nellie was born I loved to do nothing else but hold her. The great thing was I could and took full advantage doing so knowing she is the caboose in the family. She is so entertaining and always, always smiley. She waves at the Yellow School Bus and giggles when she watches the kids get off the bus each day. She puts up with a lot of mauling from both Rileigh and Logan and Dad. They all play rough with her and she ends up screaming for help, poor thing. I thought her newness in our family would wear off and the kids would leave her alone. It hasn't, but it just proves how much they love having her in our family. We love you Nellsters Happy Birthday to YOU!
