365

One year ago today, I posted this:
I've been having contractions since 5:30 or so this morning. They have been intensifying but are still not at the magic "every 5 minutes, 1 minute in duration" level. Nonetheless, we've kept Viva home from school while we wait to see what happens and we've got all local family members on standby. I am cramping, hips are extra sore, back is killing me. It feels like this is it.

Happy 1st Birthday, Celia, my love. You are tremendous and I love you even more today than 365 short days ago when we first met. I am sorry that you woke up on today of all days cold and wet and with poop in your pants. Hopefully, each birthday will be better than the last!



Cily, about 10 minutes after waking up cold and wet (her diaper leaked) and with poop in her pants. Approximately 5 AM today.

Happy Birthday, Little Girl!

With Love from Oregon.

PS What a difference a year makes, eh?

Thanks, Bridget! This year flew by and sometimes when I look at her, stretched out across the bed or rolling on the floor, I wonder: "Where did this little PERSON come from? What happened to the baby?!"
