Happy Birthday Rhy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RHYLIE

One Years Old!



I can't believe my baby girl is one today! This year has brought about so many things but watching her grow and learn and develop into my sweet little daughter has made everything worth it and then some. Who knew such a big personality could fit in such a tiny package. Mommy loves you more than anything and I can't wait to see how you take on the world in the coming years.

Seven Months

Baby Update

I know every mom says it, but I honestly wish she'd slow down and stop growing up! It's all going so quickly! She is in the top 75% for height and below 50% for weight. My little nugget is so active that her weight has hit a plateau, the Dr. said she's happy and healthy just burning off more calories than the average 7 month old, but things should even out here pretty soon. She's already attempting to walk which leads to face plants in the carpet or walking along holding on to furniture (or Mommy's pants!). She's still a very happy baby!
