It is funny to me, now, that this time last year I wondered

how in the world I was going to love another baby like I love my Little Bug.

I wonder no more.

And I wondered no more the first time I laid eyes on her.

It was truly instant love.

I love that baby with all my heart and then some, just like I love Little Bug.

She has brought so much JOY to our family in this past year.

Her smile, even through her pain in those first few months, is who Sweet Pea is…

a happy little baby girl

who I cannot imagine not being a part of our family, now.

It is so hard to believe she will be one in just 5 weeks!
