Jillian is ONE!

My baby girl is ONE whole year today! I really cannot believe it! Partly, because she's small. She's a petite thing (go figure!) and looks younger than she is. Its also, partly, because we're pretty sure she's our last child and its bittersweet to see her growing up so fast! She is a fun and very happy little girl. Bright blue eyes that reflect everything she thinks. She is so very happy and loves to be around her family. She has the cutest little dimple in her left cheek, and I love it! Jillian crawls everywhere exploring everything. And although she is delicate in her explorations, she's also very deliberate and focused. Jillian loves watching Vi and Ella and our new pup, Dexter. Each morning she rewards her rescuer with a huge smile when we go in to get her from her crib. 






We had a family party last night for her. I've never seen a baby dig into their cake like she did! No holding back. She was filthy within seconds!





We are all so in love with this sweet 1 yr old and are so grateful she's in our family. How lucky are we?

Oh my goodness! She really demolished the cake! Well done little lady! What a fun celebration. I have loved being able to watch her grow. Such a treasure.
