Abi's First Birthday!

Abi turned one on the 15th of April so we had a barbecue on Saturday with both Kevin's and my families. I have been trying to wrap my head around the fact that a year ago we were just bringing Abi home from the hospital. Since we see her every day, it's hard to remember her that small. So, let's take a look back through time...

At the hospital

Her first day at home


Just a couple of weeks old


1-2 months
This was the age when she slept all the time... ahh, those were the days.

3-4 months

Halloween 2009

Christmas 2009

10 months

Climbing the stairs... what a big girl!

Easter 2010

What a cutie! The barbecue was a lot of fun, but a lot of work. Kevin and I spent most of Friday night and Saturday getting ready. There was a ton of food and the weather was perfect (we got lucky, I think).

Me grillin' up a storm... literally, look at all that smoke!

Like I said, lots of fun. Now here's a couple of messy spaghetti face pictures just for fun.
