Our big girl turned one yesterday. Amazing how fast time flies, how wonderful she is, how much she's changed, how much we've changed and can only fathom changes to come. We had a wonderful day yesterday...we woke up at 6 am (ok, she woke up and woke me up too) and played in the living room. I love having leisurely time with her at home - it feels like a luxury not always be in a hurry to get her ready, me ready and out the door. We just laid on the floor and played for a few hours. We had a lovely breakfast of banana, cinnamon life and pancakes. Maddy, our nanny share friend, came over around 8 am and all of us hung out. Maddy is 2 1/2 and cute as a button. Piper went down for her nap and Maddy and I got the bag ready for our adventure. at 10:30, Me, Piper, Maddy and Great Grandma Jackie headed out for... THE ZOO! It was a wonderfully exhausting trip - the girls had a great time at the petting zoo and all the other kids. Naps ensued when we got home and we topped the day off with a delicious dinner and a vegan/orange cake. It was a good day.
Happy birthday little lady. I love you.

Wow - I suck.
It's been four months since I posted - I SUCK. Piper will be a year in just a few weeks! OK - here is the update. She's been crawling for a few months, but isn't quite walking. She completely rejected baby food about three months ago and only wants big girl food. She ditched formula at 10 mos for milk and would change her own diaper if I let her. I think she's ready to be a toddler. :)
She has blossemed into an incredibly cool, independent and snuggly little girl. I literally can't get enough of her. I only wish there were more hours in the day for us to hang out. Right now we're only seeing each other for an hour in the AM and an hour at night - so weekends become so precious. She's just starting to have seperation anxiety (which is kinda flattering) that translates to heart felt sobbing every two hours or so, satisfied only by snuggling. Secretly I love it - there is nothing better than a baby sleeping on your chest.
I promise I'll post more pictures soon.
