12 Months

She's 1. How did that happen? Wasn't I just pregnant? Didn't we just bring her home?

These past 12 months have flown by. From a helpless little munchkin to a toddling, babbling, "Kate Monster" with quite a personality.

That personality- what we thought was a mini-me: quiet, patient, able to play on her own; is morphing into a combo of Adam and my sister. She likes mechanical things- has figured out how to open the baby gate in the basement, and stares are the glider watching it and trying to figure out how it moves- and likes to do everything on her own- walking running down the sidewalk, pulling her hand away from mine.

It will be interesting to see how she changes this coming year.

Now that the series of pictures is over, I can start working on her quilt.

Happy Birthday little one :)
