11 Months and Surprise Visits

You turned 11 months and Daddy came home for a surprise visit....

Pretty sure today took the cake on your month birthday's. When Daddy walked through the door your eyes lit up and you screamed :)

I think your Daddy fell even more in love with you. (Didn't know that was even possible)

We didn't do a lot of celebrating, but we did help your Meme move classrooms so when school starts she will be ready.

We also found your dress for the birthday party and pictures. I have to alter it a little bit but you look like a toy doll.

I love you so much. You are currently running under the desk and playing with some old cameras. It is adorable. We have one more month and you turn one. This will be a busy month.

I love you, Daddy loves you and we are so blessed to call you our daughter.

Time Goes so Quickly

Tomorrow you are 11 months. One month from being a year old. I don't know how this happened so fast. I at times want to hit the stop button but watching you grow is so amazing. You are so smart. I can show you something once and you have it down. It is simply awe-inspiring.

You managed to go both on a boat and a train within the same month. You FINALLY say, "momma." Which you say all the time. Melts my heart when your tiny voice says it. I can't imagine what you will be like a year from now. I am sure you will chatter all day every day. (no complaints if so)

Today we went to the Children's Museum in Seminole. You would walk up and down this ramp and squeal with delight that you weren't falling. It was adorable. There were so many people in awe that you were so tiny and walking. I couldn't have been prouder.

I guess tomorrow I will simply post your photo since I am rambling tonight. But Eddison - know that your momma loves you soooooooooooo much.

Oh What The Future Holds

We have had a great day today. We played a lot, outside, inside, in the closets, etc. I enjoy these moments so much. I know there are times I think I should just go back to work, but it is days like today that make me beyond thankful we are able to have me at home with you.

I look at you and as you turn to me an smile my heart melts. You little bear have changed my life in so many ways. I am beyond blessed to have you. Your Daddy will be leaving again this weekend and it breaks my heart he has to leave you. I know there is no way I would be able to leave for weeks at a time. When he comes home it is like meeting a new little person because you change so often.

Today I took a photo of you with my wedding dress. I almost cried because I can only imagine you telling me, "Momma, I am getting married." The joy I see in your eyes as you sat and played with my dress will be there the day you walk to marry the man of your dreams. I remember walking to your Daddy like it was yesterday. I walked with your Papa and wow. Your Daddy and you won't be able to hold the tears back.

Eddison I pray you are lucky enough to meet someone as amazing as your Daddy, he is a keeper and I thank God daily for bringing him to me.

Well now that I am all teary eyed.... I will go back to cleaning the house while you snooze. I love you Eddi Bear...

oh ps... we did get to do it. We are a minivan family!!!!!!
