Baby Cait is ONE





It has been quite a year for my little princess. It makes me so sad that she is growing up so fast. People said that little girls are totally different. THEY WERE RIGHT!!! She already has Dad wrapped around her fingers and Brenten's too. With Cait we have a lot more pink in the house. And little girly squeals and coos. It is funny. Who knew that even as an infant they could sound so different from boys.

Here are just a few of the things Cait has endured this year:

7 ear infections
2 RSV bouts
1 pneumonia
1 bronchitis
8 teeth
2 big brothers who pick on her
lots and lots of nos
0 belly laughs (she has yet to belly laugh)

Here are a few of the fun new experiences we have had this year:

coos and giggles
new words: mama, dada, papa, (brenten is certain she says his name), yeah
2 awesome brothers who will do anything for her
rolling over
pulling herself up
walk along furniture
crawling
eating all kinds of new foods
starting to feed herself
wrestling with dad and the boys
and so many more.

We are so blessed to have little Cait in our home. She does bring a little more sweetness to our home of boys. I love my little princess.

I can't believe she is one. She is too cute! I also can't believe how much she has been sick. Hopefully she won't be this next coming year. I agree I love love having a girl around. Happy Birthday to Cait!

Little girls are wonderful! They are a stablizer and bring a soft tone to life. She has a beautiful smile, one to melt any heart.
