let's be honest here.
these were taken in 2.2 seconds because little miss was jumping off that chair & pulling off her hat quicker than an "ahchoo!" ha!
| yes, i am a redhead-ish brown now ;) still not sure about it. trying to embrace the change tho. hehe! |
eden,
thinking about 11 months with you makes me wanna smile & cry all at the same time.
i never thought i would be the emotional mom that i am.
you & your sisters make me a sap!
but let's be honest, you're my baby.
my last baby.
and sometimes the thought of you growing up is too much for this momma heart to bear.
so until then, i will soak up my days with you,
continue nibbling on your neck fat,
pinching your sweet cheeks,
and biting your yummy toes.
i will rock you,
sing to you,
and put crazy, awful flowers on your head...,
all in the name of love.
i will let you stay up past your bedtime,
eat popcorn when you shouldn't,
and even give you too many sips of my chocolate shake.
i will continue to chase you up the stairs
because that's what makes you grin the biggest.
and boy, are we addicted to that toothy grin.
and because, well, you're my baby.
and you get away with anything 'round here.
we're googoo over you, miss eden.
all of us.
you have stolen our hearts & we will never be the same.
now please forgive me for not throwing you a pinterest inspired first birthday party.
nov 4th snuck up on me way too fast.
and i still have nothing planned.
zip.
zilch.
in my head, it's a grand party.
full of hot pink.
balloons filled with confetti.
stripey straws.
pancakes.
but let's be honest...
it'll prolly be a humble, homemade cake.
and a few birthday hats from target.
you're gonna love it.
we're gonna love YOU.
i will make it up to you next year, baby girl.
i'll even buy you a pony.
pinky promise.
kidding. kinda.
love, love, love,
your momma

..so precious!! eden's 11-month-old energy definitely comes across in these pictures, how fun—she seems like an absolute joy bringer! happy 11 months mama and eden!!
She just gets cuter and cuter. And I LOVE your hair color! It looks so pretty on you!
Just started following your blog, I'm so glad I found it! She is such a sweetie! The time goes too fast, doesn't it!? My girls are 3 and 4 now... I still try to savor each moment and keep them little as long as possible!

No!!! She's growing too fast and I've seen her like once...can she stay a baby a little longer? I feel the same about Sunday! Where's my little baby gone?
She's so cute and she'll never know you didn't give her the pinterest perfect bday!! Sometimes homemade should really look homemade you know?!
She totally looks like Tim in these pics too. And, I love your hair. But, I won't be surprised if you post a pic soon of yourself with blonde hair hahaha!
love ya
i love your lil photoshoot. and i'm admiring your lil 11 and arrows on the chalkboard. nice touch, molly june.
and eden's hair is red, red. cute! she's changing so fast!
your hair makes your eyes pop!
i feel sad about this. i have never met her and i'm sad. i mean, she's amazing, but i just don't want her to grow anymore. or cammie jane.
she is scrumptious.
how can this be?
who said she was allowed to get older?
good thing she just keeps on getting cuter. it makes this whole getting bigger thing sting a little less.
xo
and you know how i feel about your hair. LOVE IT!
