One Year Old!!

Tuesday was Ansley's birthday. I can't believe she is one already. I really don't know what happened to this year. It seems like just yesterday that I was having contractions and making laps around our house. This year has been one of the best of my life. Ansley has brought so much happiness to our lives. I really don't know how I lived without her. She has been such a joy and we are truly blessed. We won the lottery when it comes to children! She has really changed over the past few months, she has developed quite the personality! She is such a ham and just loves attention, she flirts with everyone that will smile at her! She is quite the busy body never ever sitting still longer than 5 minutes. She loves being chased around the house and she also loves climbing. She mastered the stairs before she could even walk, and now she is trying to get up on the furniture. She will hike her little leg up onto the sofa cushions, but she is just short enough where she can't push herself up. One new love that she has found is the bath. She gets so excited when I walk into the bathroom and turn on the faucet. She will pull at her clothes as if she is trying to get them off and watch the water fill the tub. It is so cute when we undress her because she will beat on her bare belly with her hands and just crack up. She is so much fun and we have the best time together during the day. I am so so lucky to get to spend my day with such a cool little girl. On her birthday, we played together with her amazing toys that she got at her party. We also went shopping a little bit and got her a few little gifts for her. After Daddy got home we decided to do some more shopping as a family, and got her some fun bath stuff! We then went to Bruster's for her first ice cream cone, and let me just say she is our daughter for sure!!! She gobbled up that cone like there was no tomorrow! When we came home she watched her new Elmo DVD with her new Elmo doll and then we took a bath and went to bed. It was such a great day!!




Turned around in her big girl car seat. She LOVES facing forward!
She is really into Elmo if you can't tell!


Making herself a little more comfortable.

Eww this part is good!
