Proud new mommy and daddy at the hospital...
Look at her face, so sweet...
Isn't she tiny?
In a blink of an eye, she is now 1 years old! My friend Stephanie told me something while I was pregnant with Cambree and I think about what she said almost daily. She said to cherish each moment, every milestone and never wish her time away. Too often you hear people say..."If only she could crawl it would be so much easier...I can't wait til she can sit up on her own...Once she gets teeth feeding her will be..." and so on. She said that only too soon will all of that happen and you can't turn the clock back, so to cherish each moment because you'll miss what they are doing right then. I have caught myself saying "It'll be easier when..." and I stop myself and think I love where she is at in life. I CAN wait because I know soon enough she'll be all grown up. And honestly it's true, she's already 1...I feel like she's leaving me and going off to college or something...so crazy I know!
Was it hard for you all when your babies turned 1? I'm actually sad about it. I really would love to pause life because it is so perfect right now. I know Cambree and I will continue to enjoy life together and she's not my last baby, I just don't know where the time has gone?
Anyway, on to how we celebrated her day! Our neighbors, Chuck and Barb had us over this past Sunday to celebrate. They gave her a gift and she was thrilled...
They also made her a birthday cake, which was so sweet!
Ready for cake?
This is Chuck and Barb. They are like her grandparents, they adore her. They don't have any grandchildren of their own, so they really enjoy it when we go over and visit...they can't get enough of her. (She wasn't too thrilled about sitting, she wanted to play with her new present.)
It was so nice to celebrate with them, I LOVE having them as our neighbors!
Today we had to celebrate as well. Cambree doesn't mind having cake twice in one week :) Benton and I sang Happy Birthday to her, she wasn't quite sure what to think...
She took her sweet time eating her cake, she loved having the whole thing to herself.
My sister Chelsie gave Cambree this present and she LOVED it! I know what she'll be doing tomorrow. She just giggled crawling through it.
This big smile is because she saw her daddy at the other side of her tunnel.
Happy Birthday sweetheart, we love you so very much.
