I created this blog as a way to connect with "Hubby/Daddy" as he spent time serving our country in Iraq. He's been home for 8 years but the good 'ole US has called him into service again. I'm dusting this old blog off and using it again-mostly to communicate with him. Enjoy!

My big birthday girl
6 years! How does it happen? I suppose parents often think that. I wonder if you ever stop remembering the day your children are born, especially on birthdays. I can remember the excitement, anticipation, euphoria. Ah, it is SO very exciting to have a baby! And I'm your quintessential pregnant momma with water breaking in the middle of the night just to add to the excitement. I was telling Sadie last night the story of when she was born. I'm not sure I've ever shared much with her, but since she's now a big 6 year old, I reminisced a bit with her as we looked through a photo album of her first days.
There is an intersection in town that I pass through often, and seldom do I go through it without remembering our trip to the hospital when Sadie was on the way. Hubs was timing contractions (just for fun, I guess, bc there was NO question on if I was in labor), and he missed the turn. So he did this crazy u-turnish move that makes me chuckle whenever I pass through that intersection. Needless to say we made it in plenty of time.
I took a cute photo this morning that I'll try to post later. Plus one of the cake, of course. Even though we are having a low key celebration, you better believe I'm making the cake! We are taking Sadie's favorite cousin to the zoo with us on Saturday, and shhh...the surprise is that cousin is spending the night. Whoa, not sure if I know what we're getting into with sleepovers! But I know they will both have a blast.
I love you, my dear lovey! Thanks for making me a mommy.
