Happy 1st Birthday Precious Boy!!

Dear Alden,
One year ago today at 7:13pm we met you for the first time. At 8 lbs 7 0z you didn't waste anytime making your appearance. Thank you for that! We were so excited to finally hold you and see what you looked like; would mommy finally have a baby that resembled her...even just a little bit?? Yep - with blonde hair and fair skin you look a bit like mommy, although you do have your daddy's big beautiful eyes (your sister does too)!

You are the sweetest, most precious little boy! You have a calm spirit and a huge appetite. You are a little cuddle bug who wears 2T clothing and LOVES his milk sippy in the morning. You love to climb things, wrestle with your sister and you're fascinated with wheels. You're sweetly sensitive - if "sister" takes something from you or mommy tells you "no-no" you typically burst into tears. You are an angel in the car, this is a wonderful gift for mommy since your sister is still a slight terror in the car. Thank you! You have a funky and FAST crawl - your right foot is really pushing you along. We affectionately call you "Bruiser" since you're weighing in these days at around 24 pounds (the same as your sister)!

We thank the Lord for giving you to us to love!

I love wheels!!
