And now for the main event!!!!!

It has come and gone at the flash of an eye...Cora has official been on this earth and gracing our lives for ONE YEAR! The year has been joyous and trying all at once. Many parents have told me that you don't know what love is, true love is, till you have children. I can say I couldn't agree more...and you truly don't learn how unconditional love can be till you hear the words momma.
Love you booger butt!

walking after midnight...out in the moonlight...

Ok so its not after midnight because lord knows Cora can't make it past 9 must nights...but early September was very eventful in our house because...that's right Cora started walking! At first we said she walked like Iron Man...she was so stiff and wouldn't attempt to mind her knees now after a few weeks of practice she almost appears to run on her toes a bit.

A Chilly Saturday morning...

Ohio weather...need I say more?!? A few ago it got chilly and Cora and I decided it was time for winter pj's. On Saturday and Sunday we often let daddy sleep in while we eat breakfast and play...or for Cora that's play with our breakfast :) silly girl!

Super Fly

the STANK (face)

Cora has always been compared to her dad, she looks like him, acts like him, sleeps like him, and so on...but the STANK face that Cora makes is 100% her MOMMA!

Here is the step-by-step of the stank face ...

Little bit of this, little bit of that...

I have fallen behind again and trying to play catch up...here are a few cute shots from August. As you can see our little girl is growing up fast and I find myself not wanting to leave her side for fear that she might learn something new and I might miss it.
