Last Day as an "Infant"

Asleep in her crib.
Sweet, sweet baby girl.

How is that comfortable?!

Playing in the hallway.

In less than 24 hours our little girl will no longer be considered an "infant"...she will be ONE and now a "toddler". Whatever her title may be she will ALWAYS be her momma's BABY! When she is 30 years old she will still be my baby girl. This time last year I was 3 and a 1/2 hours into the labor process with Lily. I was induced at 7:00am on September 11th and she was born at 6:42am on September 12th. I'll never forget it. I though she was being stubborn and just didn't want to come out, but she tells me that she was right on time. She is right...she was born exactly on her due date. Not early. Not late. Right on time. I don't know why, but I have tears as I write this today. Lily is sound asleep in her crib and I have peeked in on her many times already. I could just watch her all day long. I love her so much. She has changed our lives in so many wonderful ways this past year. I can't imagine life without her. She is such a good baby. She is stubborn like her momma and she has also inherited her momma's temper, but she is still a good baby. I did not see my baby girl at 6:42am on the day she was born, but my alarm will be set tonight and you better believe I will see her at 6:42am on her first birthday.
