5 YEARS ...

Such a beautiful day today.  Took Bella's 5th birthday pictures.



So my baby girl will be 5 on Wednesday, can't believe it has been five years.



It is hard to believe that 5 years ago I had no clue what I was having all I wanted was a healthy full term baby but God had other great amazing plans for us!  


I am so grateful and blessed to have been giving the greatest gift in the world of our beautiful health little girl.  I love what having had a preemie has given me & allowed me to be able to share with other preemie mom's.  I think it is such an amazing gift.


So in the last year Bella has been a busy girl.  Lets get an update on her likes and dislikes & who she is. Plus lots of pictures! Mom is crazy with the camera.

This year we had actual snow without ice & Bella loved it till her butt got wet & cold then she was done.










She was Sofia the First for Halloween down to her stuffed clover to carry with her when she went for her Tricks & Treats.


A little mini me photo session.

She loves to go to Playschool.  Can't wait till school starts she is so ready.  She loves to watch the school bus drop kids off everyday in front of our house! So just made sense to have a school bus 5th birthday!


She is still healthy & growing.
36 Inches 30.2 oz
Naps are few and far between
I would tell you what words she knows but that would take to long.   Let's just say she told me Sunday her birthday party decorations were Fabulous.  Think she is spending way to much time with her Nana.  She has her Pop wrapped around her finger.  Along with her daddy & everyone else!


We are so blessed to have this beautiful little bundle of energy & attitude.  Thank you to everyone who has followed her story & prayed for her over the years you are all apart of her life & I am so very grateful for that.
