Happy Birthday sweet Abigail.

Abigail is now one. I can't believe how quickly this year went by. This time last year was wonderful and difficult. I hated that John missed her birth. He hated not being there, but he knew I was in good hands. I wish I could say that things were going to get easier or that things were going to calm down this year, but that is not the case with military life. Here we are about to start craziness all over again. I am in a good place mentally and spiritually ready to tackle this year long deployment.

Enjoy the pictures down memory lane and new ones too.

This was right before I left for the hospital...I remember being so excited to meet Abigail. My Dad and I were staying at my grandparents and he drove me to the hospital. We left at 4:00 am and Marmee (my grandma) got up to kiss me good bye and tell me she was praying for me. I will always remember that when I look at this picture.

My mom got to the hospital we took this picture and about 30 minutes later I was holding Abigail.

She is here..

6 weeks

My three little cuties...I am so blessed.

A year later and just precious.

I love these little lips..
