Happy Birthday Violet!

Our little Cutie is one!! I can't believe how fast this past year has gone. Violet was such an easy baby from the delivery to now. She was such a happy baby and so sweet. I say "was" because with her old age she's become very sassy and fiesty and we love it. She loves feeding herself and throwing food on the floor that she doesn't want, she walks around everything and almost has the courage to take off walking on her own. She says, dada, uh-oh, whasthat, woof, hi, and lots of other baby babbles. Cutie is her name around here by those who love her the most (Maggie and Lucas) and she prefers her dad anyday over mom. We love our Violet so much and look forward to the years to come!

And that picture of her walking to Russell is classic. Is it possible that he just might love her more than you? I'm just saying. Ha ha...

Wow, one already. She's so cute. Congrats on the Dyson. I warned Steve not to get me anything I could cook or clean with for Mother's day. Although I would love some new pots and pans and of course a new vacuum, but for Mother's day I always want something i don't need. Ya know.
Miss you guys.
