Halle's First Year

So, Halle turned a year on Mother's Day, May 9th, this year. And I've decided I've got to get back into blogging, and what better way to do that than by highlighting some pics and things about our sweet baby girl?

Hidden talent: Can open any screw-on cap; she has also been able to open a couple of child-proof caps! How's that for hand and finger skills!
Following are "some" pics of Halle's first year. (Beware: major picture overload! And instead of writing captions for each picture, I'm going to let the pictures do the talking!)

Spring Pics!

I had this wonderful gal take pictures of my kids...she's AWE-SOME. She really captured my kids' personalities. Here's the pictures she put up for a sneak peek. I cannot wait to see the rest!
