Our Birthday Girl!!

Emmaline Jade Listi is 1 today! This year has flown by! I can't express how much she means to us and how much she has blessed our family.. on a daily basis and as a whole.. she definitely makes us better people and continuously work to be!! We are so thankful to have her in our life. Seeing her happy face, those big dimples & pretty blue eyes every morning is amazing.. hearing her laugh, squeal & even cry is wonderful!

Emma you are so special. You can say a lot of words - Mama, Dada, dog, duck, look, that, bye.. you have so many adorable expressions, you give such sweet hugs and kisses to me, your daddy and your dogs, your wave is so cute and you can clap with such excitement, you love music, dancing & books, you are almost running now & finally figured out how to go down the stairs (kindof), you sleep wonderfully, you are Miss Independent, you eat great & really love spaghetti, vienna sausage & fruit, you love your Taggies blankie (and follow the 'only in the bed' rule), you rarely cry, love your baths and rubber duckies, and you could live outside in the sun and fresh air! I could go on and on, but I am exhausted! We had an awesome birthday party and I will post pictures soon!! Thank you to everyone who came and celebrated such an important day with us!

Thank you Emma for a wonderful 1st year and I can't wait to see what is in store for you this next year and many more to come!


In other news, Emma is going to be a Big Sister, with a new brother or sister due September 21st! We are so excited and happy that everything looks great. We are 12 weeks along so far and I feel bigger each and every day!
