15 Months!

Our little lady is 15 months old! 

She is 25 pounds and got her first upper respiratory infection. She got to be pumped up with some steroids and got a vaporizer in her room for her 15 month birthday. But the real celebration was that Annie's grandma and grandpa came to visit! (Kenny's mom and dad). Then we all traveled to Maui for a little family getaway!

Grandpa and Grandma arrived! 

Vaughns head to Maui!
Hit up the beach and the aquarium on Maui!

Annie has become a seasoned walker over the last couple of months and a booty dropper. She loves her music class and our free dance time. We have been working it out at stroller strides and playing at the park often before class.

We also went to the splash park with our play group buddies.


We have also transitioned to one nap which has given us lots of time to hang out in the morning with our buds and go for hikes with daddy!

We also have had the best time getting our molars! (Not) 

But we love our little Annie and her silly faces and sweet hugs. 

Love you Annie!

Happy 1 Year!

We celebrated our little lady as a family on the natal day! We took Annie to her favorite beach and practiced walking up and down.




She also got to have pizza and a whole foods cupcake! It was a gorgeous day to just reminisce about our sweet Annie's entrance into the world.

Then we had a fun get together that was owl themed. I took very few pictures but it was such a great time of kids running in the backyard, all the dads being home, and great conversation! 

And someone loved her cupcake!


She also received a lei for her birthday!


We have loved being Annie's parents. It has certainly been the hardest, most rewarding, most blessed year of our lives. We have learned so much about ourselves and will surely learn more in the coming years, but year one has been so fun to see Annie grow, change, and get such a fun personality! She is our sunshine and the greates gift we have received (other than daisy of course!)

Thanks for all the love and support throughout year one! Now onto year 2!
