I can’t believe my little newborn is 1 today. Wow. You hear other people say “it goes so fast” and you just kinda nod… it doesn’t really sink in until its your own child.
To commemorate her first year, I’ve been working on a short little highlight video… but its taking longer than I had thought to make. I hope to post it soon, but for now here is a picture progress story of Alexa’s first year. Each picture was taken by my wife on her month birthdays. (except this first shot which I took minutes after she was born) : )

1 year – Today!
For me, months 5 and 6 were my favorite. Even though each day has new adventures and smiles, there was something majical for me when she was 5 & 6 months old. It was the end of the difficult newborn sleep schedule, the beginning of smiles and interaction and before the teething kicked in. And maybe I’m just a sucker for that gummy smile. : ) She’s my little princess and I can’t believe God gave her to Amy and I. I am truely blessed and love her to pieces. Happy Birthday Lex! I Love you.
