i can't believe it's already here. lucky for all of you, you can't see me a complete wreck because my baby's already O-N-E.

from princesses, pink, and barbie™, to a journey into the world of dirt, climbing, and beating on things for fun. it was here much faster than i expected. SO much fun. i can't imagine the world without my little B-monster. taylor evolved from little girl, to amazing big sister the minute he was born. and already, her brother's given her the patience of a saint.

our family's just that much better because he's in it.
