A page is turned

Today we celebrated Eva's last day being zero!

Sure, tomorrow's the big day for her. And perhaps more so for Sam, who is keenly aware that her birthday is coming. (Tonight at bedtime he insisted tomorrow is his birthday too!)

But today I reflected on the past year since her birth. Here are a few of my favorite photos.

Getting ready to leave the hospital, wearing the same dress that Michele wore home from the hospital when she was born. (2 days old)


Getting to know Sam -- and vice versa. (5 days old)


Celebrating the New Year. (3 months)


Relaxing in the bumbo chair. (5 months)


All smiles on July 4th. (9 months)


Modeling her new barrett. (11 months)


Enjoying our backyard. (last weekend)

Ok...I'm a few months behind checking your blog. And just realized that I forgot to send Eva a HAPPY BIRTHDAY card or even call you guys. Not that she would know or anything. I really thought about it earlier this month, and then apparently forgot. I guess that's what happens when we get old! Give her a big smooch. The boys are so excited to see all the babies at Thanksgiving! Tell Eva I'll make up for it in the future with some jewelry and makeup. :)
