Happy Birthday to our baby!

Happy First Birthday Annie Brooke! It is so hard to believe an entire year has come and gone. What an amazing time we have had with our precious baby girl! She has brought us more joy than we could have ever imagined and we look forward to what the future holds. My only wish it that time would not go by so fast!

I took her to the doctor today for her one year well check. She now weighs 20 lbs. 10 oz and is 29 inches long. She has almost tripled in weight since birth! Wow! She was in the 50th percentile for height and weight and Dr. Johnson said she was looking good! Her top two teeth and getting bigger each day and you can almost see one when she laughs really big!

Annie's First Christmas!

We had such a wonderful first Christmas with Annie this year! It was so fun getting all of her presents from Santa ready on Christmas Eve night! I think Mitch and I were more excited on Christmas morning than we have been in years! Annie was more interested in playing with her Santa toys and didn't really care to open the ones we had wrapped for her! Oh well!

We spent Christmas morning at our house and then went to my parents on Christmas night. Santa had visited her there too! We are going to Kentucky next weekend to see Mitch's family and celebrate Christmas with them! We hope everyone had a great Christmas!

11 months and counting!

We can't believe that Christmas is almost here and Annie will be a year old in a week and a half! Where does all the time go? It seems like every time we turn around she is doing something new!

She loves to chase Mitch and I around the house! She is such a fast crawler we don't know if she will every want to walk! She giggles and laughs the whole time! She also loves it when we chase her. She turns her head to make sure we are still coming and then cracks up as she heads to another room! Annie also thinks our dog Biscuit likes to play chase. Unfourtunately for Biscuit she doesn't! Annie crawls towards Biscuit's bed and Biscuit gets up off of it to go to another room. When she walks by Annie, Annie thinks Biscuit is chasing her and she laughs and turns to go to another room too. Then, poor Biscuit turns back around to go to her bed and the cycle continues! It is really funny to watch because Annie has no idea that the dog is trying to get away from her!

All Annie wants for Christmas is her two front teeth to come all the way in! They are there, you can see them but, they are still tiny! We can't wait to see what she will look like with top teeth! We have gotten so used to just the bottom two!

We are looking forward to spending Christmas with our sweet little girl this year! We hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!

Christmas Fun!

Annie met Santa for the first time last week! She did so good! She checked him out at first; I think she was wondering what was on his face! Then, she just sat with him and giggled at the camera!

Annie waved at people on their floats during the Christmas parade! I really think she was trying to shake her big mitten off her hand! Either way it was still cute!

Mitch's Skydive!!

If you can't tell by his face, he loved it! He already wants to go again!

Yah, he landed on his feet! I filmed the jump and fall so, I only have pictures of him safely on the ground!

All geared up and waiting to get on the plane.

Mitch and Annie before the big jump!
