one.

Go figure that the biggest event of the year, and I have no words.

I was going to post my favorite photos of Vivi.

Problem is I could only narrow it down to 103, that was after narrowing it down from 430.

I don’t care how much you like me or my baby, no one wants to wait for 103 photos to load.

So I put them into a video. You’re welcome, for Vivi’s birthday you get to wait for a video to load instead.

Cant’ see the video? Click here.

You guys? My baby is one.

miss vivi yawns.

Holy crap.

Here’s a few posts about Vivi’s first month, it’s been hard, but it’s been so worth it.

Here’s Vivi’s introduction to the world.

The one about my heart nearly exploding.

The one where a tiny miracle outdoes the biggest plans.

  6. Oh my goodness, there should be a warning on that video: “not suitable for moms of almost one year olds.”. I am bawling and my girl doesn’t turn 1 for three weeks. How lucky are your girls to have such a talented mother! They’ll treasure your gorgeous photos forever.

  9. This made my day, tears and all! First birthdays are amazing and fun and sad all at the same time. One is coming up for my baby girl too – and there’s not much baby left. It is slowly fading away. Happy birthday to your sweet girl!
