Happy First Birthday Eliana!

Can you believe this was Eliana one year ago? (Boy, was she a big baby!)

Just to give you some perspective...

One year old!

She loves carrying her coins around in her mouth.

Birthday dinner of ravioli - one of her favorites!

Happy Birthday to our Big Girl!  It is unbelievable that a year has gone by already since she was born.  Time has just flown by.  I feel like she should still be a little baby wrapped up in my arms.  Tonight as I rocked her to sleep and kissed her goodnight, I thought how fleeting this time is.  She grows so fast.  I am trying to really treasure these moments because before I know it she will be a very big girl and won't need kisses from mommy to fall asleep.  She has changed so much already.  I am amazed when I look at her pictures and see how much she has grown up.  She really isn't a baby anymore.  Eliana is my little toddler now.  When did that happen?  What a great year it has been!
