I have to admit that the first 4 months were not as pleasant as I thought they would be. I had visions of cuddling my new child, putting her down for a nap, getting a cup of coffee, and doing some reading. Hah ... more like sleep deprivation and diaper blow outs. There was even a stretch of 3 days I didn't brush my teeth, not out of laziness ... I just plain forgot.
Then came the following 6 months ... I must quote the wise words of Jim Carrey in Dumb and Dumber ... and totally redeemed themselves! What an absolute joy Kalyn Kay has been to us ... and to everyone who knows and plays with her.
We had her birthday party a few days early. It was such a blessing to celebrate with our family (doting grandparents and uncle) and best friends. I can't believe Kalyn's 1. Happy Birthday Sweet Pumpkin Head!
First taste of sugar ... she liked it, of course!
G-ma and Grand pa ... our neighbors and KK's friends.
She is all smiles.
She loved the balloons as much as presents.
Our wonderful family and friends.
