Leanna is almost one year old!!!

I still remember how excited I felt when we found out I was pregnant the end of last year. Talk about life changing...Here we are almost two years later. Leanna will be one year old next month! I can't believe how fast time goes by!!! She is 11 months old today. She grows so much and surprises AND amazes us everyday. She learns so quickly and is like a little sponge soaking everything in!Sometimes John and I talk about life before Leanna; funny thing is we really can't remember our life BEFORE we had Leanna. I know having her in my life has absolutely changed me so much... and for the better! Everyday I find myself becoming a better person not just because of her, but for her. I think if we truly opened our hearts to all the love we feel for our loves (whether that be our spouse and/or children) I think we'd die from the overwhelming sense of love, happiness and faith.

Crawling

I had meant to put this on the previous log. Leanna is up and about crawling! I mentioned to John she knows two speeds; fast and faster! LOL! She is pulling herself up on things and it's only a matter of time that she'll start cruising, creeping... whatever it is called she'll be walking here very soon!
We are planning her first birthday party and it's been so exciting!!!

VACATION and July 4th!!

John has left with Leanna to head to the family cabin in NC. I'm missing her terribly! :-(
I'll be leaving Thursday to drive up there with my father in law. My mother in law is with my husband and daughter. John said that Leanna has just had the best time so far looking at the trees and all the leaves! The cabin is deep within the mountains there in Murphy and it is SO quiet! There is no sound of the typical city and the air is very clean and crisp... also no humidity. Us Floridians ask, "What's no humidity?" LOL!! I'll be taking the camera so expect some pictures here soon!
