Happy Birthday Amelia Rose!

its been a few days since the actual birthday and a few days since the actual par-tay, but what can i say...life's crazy and being late these days, as much as i hate it, is the norm:). late or not, i can't not celebrate the life of amelia rose a little in my blog.
i'll never forget the day i found out i was pregnant! kaiden had just turned 2 and grace was 7 months. i'm one of those people that, if there's a pregnancy test in the house, i'm gonnna take it...just because. i take a couple a month, just for the heck of it...and with me, you never really know anyways. it was a wednesday and i took my random test. i wasn't even "late" so i was absolutely mortified when it came up positive! somehow i kept it a secret from kelley until christmas morning when i gave him a photo album that took him thru pictures describing what a wonderful friend, husband, worker ect...he was, until the last page that told him what a wonderful dad he was with a picture of the positive test:) he was even more mortified than i was. this was most certainly not the way we planned our little family. 3 kids in less than 3 years was not ideal any way you looked at it. we spent the next 8 months trying to prepare ourselves and pick out a name for a boy and a girl, since we decided not to find out what we were having. but on august 14th, on the very moment that precious little baby girl entered our lives our worries and stresses melted away(at least mine did, kelley's doubled now that he has 2 girls:). amelia rose has been an absolute joy to our lives and there is noway we could imagine life without her. she is a sweet yet spirited little girl that loves to hug on everything from grace to her baby doll. she almost always has a huge, all gums (except for her 3 little teeth) smile on her face. her personality is wild and loud and outgoing. she adores her brother and sister and she's hardly ever been a minutes trouble. she just fit right into our family like a missing puzzle piece.
what a wonderful 1st year we've had with our little miggie (as grace calls her) and i'm so excited to continue watching her grow into the little miss priss that i can already tell she's gonna be.
