Happy Birthday Juliet Claire


One year ago today, at 6:04 pm, we welcomed our beautiful Juliet Claire. Our little angel with big blue eyes and a full head of brown hair captured our hearts with her first cry. Her Daddy sang Here Comes Santa Claus as he fed her for the first time. She was truly our best Christmas present.
Can you believe it has been a whole year? Where has the time gone? What a year it has been.
She has a smile that lights up a room, you can’t help but smile back. She gives awesome hugs that make you want to hold on tight. She will say Mama or Dada over and over again. Her face will light up when we walk in the room and she can’t get to us fast enough. Socks and shoes are made to be taken off, in a 2.5 mile trip from home to school she will do just that. She will race toward an open fridge to get there before it closes, and loves to stand and stare into it. She will dance to any music, tv show or just counting to 10. Bed time is a chore and she will fight it until she just gives up. She will not hold a bottle, but will hold her ears instead.Yogurt is her preferred meal with yogurt bites as her snack of choice. Her favorite toy is the remote. She wants to play on the stairs and throws a hissy fit if you tell her no.
It made us sad to have to reschedule her birthday party because of pneumonia, but we are well now and the party will take place in January. We are glad that there are no more ear infections, it broke our hearts to see her in pain.
We are truly blessed by this child. We are so glad that you are able to share in her life. The pictures are at her birth, 1 month, 6 months and almost a year! The change is so dramatic.

I love you my Juliet Claire!
Love, Mommy
