Happy Birthday, Kaylin!

A year ago here was our sleeping beauty. Now look at her! What a miracle her life has been thus far. She has changed the lives of so many just by her presence, and it has only just begun. I thank God for bringing her into my life to love and to learn from. Being a mom is the coolest thing ever! :) Dad might think his gig is the coolest.




The birthday tradition (first annual) of taking a picture as she wakes up.

What are you guys singing?


Ready for montessori


At the end of the day....so exhausted she had to go to bed early. So much commotion and people saying, "Are you this many??" (and holding up their index finger)
Yesterday Uncle Ben was in town and we had a mini birthday party. Uncle Ben and Traci bought Kaylin a Leap Frog Baby Tad animal and the Leap Frog Alphabet drum. A little background: Ben promised to get our children a drum the day we got married. He's been waiting very patiently. Now Kaylin likes to put her Animal Train, her Leap Frog Train/Car, her Baby Tad and her drum in front and hit as many things as she can to see how much "music" can happen all at once. Awesome.


All these new toys and she wanted to play in the new bin.






Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDPA STEIN!!! LOVE YOU.

Happy birthday, Kaylin! Sam is 6 months old today. I'm sure I echo your parents when I say it goes by too fast!
