...Nick and I just came in from eating breakfast on the porch...and my water broke! And that was the only contribution that my body made towards delivering Kate all day. :)
She was born just before midnight:

Blowing out the candle at her birthday party:

Unimpressed with the texture of cake:

But enjoyed feeding it to Daddy:

LOVES to ride around on her little ladybug:

I can easily say that this has been the best year of my life - so much more challenging, fun, and rewarding than I ever thought it could be. I'm still completely in love with my sweet little girl. We'll see how toddlerhood changes that... ;)
Happy Birthday Kate!!
