Rosie's 1 year photos

Since Rosie has been so sick (more on that later... It'll be a long post) I wasn't able to get her 1 year photos like I had hoped while we were in Utah (post on that later as well).  

Yesterday I got Rosie all ready for the day and she was just hamming it up for me so I decided to get her photos done like I had been planning. Of course the moment we get to Targer photo studio she freaks out. Ever since she was in he hospital she has had major stranger danger. I don't blame her, but this was the one time I didn't want her to have it.

We did manage to get a few great shots which I am thankful for!

My little Rosie

My dear little Rosie Posie girl,

You have officially been with our family an entire year. It has been a wonderful year.   We love you more than words can say.  You are the happiest little girl. You are truly a ray of sunshine and always know how to make those around you happy. You are always smiling and doing your silly stink faces at daddy and I. You love to cuddle, be held and rocked. I love it too. You love to play with siblings. There are times when you are with me and you fuss and fuss. I can't figure out what is wrong and then I finally realize you just want to play with the big kids. You instantly stop crying the moment I put you with them. It's what you wanted all along. I love how much you love each other. 

We sure love you Rosie and all the wonderful things you have taught me. You have taught me to be patient and how I just can't control everything in my life. You have taught me to love deeper and more unconditionally. I am so grateful for that. I love you baby girl. Happy Birthday.

Love,

Your mama

This the last month was very eventful for our Rosie girl.

She learned to clap

She learned to wave "hi"

She learned to crawl

She said "dada"

She said "mama" yes in that order. I am not happy about it.

And she cut her 2 bottom teeth!

This girl is growing by leaps and bounds. We sure love our Rosie girl, and we thank God every day for her presence in our family.

My little Ham.

This girl was being such a Ham yesterday. I decided that since she was wearing her best color, and the one that brings out those baby blues of her's that I should do a little photo shoot. I was  in hoping to capture rosie in all her spunky happy glory. She cooperated with me and I got some perfect shots of her.

Half Birthday!

Dear Rosie Posie,

You are 6 months old and delight to be around.  You clearly the favorite in the family, and can do no wrong. You are a stinker and decided it would be fun to wake up every 3.5 hours at night just like a newborn. You have made me one exhausted mama but you make up for it in the day because you are just so happy all the time. You are my bright blue eyed baby. You are stunning to look at. People are always stopping me to tell me just how beautiful and happy you are.  You LOVE people but only when mommy is in your vision. I am your safety. You love to sit with your brother and sister and play with them. You are so happy that you can sit up and be apart of the action. As long as you are fed and not tired you will sit and play by yourself for hours. The catch is that you can't be the only on in the room. You have to have people around you all the time. Even when you sleep if it is too quiet you wake up. You are in size 3-6 and 6 month clothes but they are quickly becoming to short for your long little legs. You are still not great at rolling over. You hate to lay down so you never get that tummy time that you really should. You would rather sit up.

Happy half birthday baby girl. We sure love you and your sunny personality.

Love, 

Your mama
