With our new little one around, I am thinking back to some lovely memories of Piper when she was in her first year. There are so many wonderful things about I have have experienced being a mom. Things that make my heart skip a beat and bring a (joyful) tear to my eye. It feels like yesterday when I picked Piper up and she first put her arm around my shoulder for support, instead of just me offering all the support. Piper still loves to be held, which I am so grateful for. The first smile is amazing. Piper has such a wonderful smile, and from the looks of it Maysie's is just as special. :)

Welcome Maysie!

Favorite shot of the girls

Piper is doing so well with her new little sister. She loves to touch her toes and is very gentle with her. Overall it was a pretty easy labor and delivery, except for the darn epidural which didn't take until 20 minutes before Maysie made her entrance. It's now 5 against one against my poor husband (including our 2 girl dogs.......)
I guess there is always next time.....maybe a boy?


Happy Babies! Yippee!
