Cora's 1st Birthday

Our little girl turned 1 on Sunday, July 18th. How time flies......






Dave and I are simply head over heels for our little girl... and so are her grandparents, aunts, uncles, daycare providers, friends. She leaves quite an impression with her calm demeanor, funny faces and social personality. I'm blown away by how much she's changed over the course of a year and how much our life has changed to accomodate this new role as parents. There is truly nothing we'd rather do than spend the day enjoying time with Cora!

On Sunday, we threw a picnic birthday party at a local park and were excited that so many friends and family showed up to celebrate. There were lots of kids playing in the grass and the sun even joined us...eventually. I think we're all still recovering from the excitement. Many more birthday parties in our future and we can't wait.

Since my last post, a lot has happened in our household.  We took our first camping trip of the year to Silver Falls State Park and survived!  Cora even got to try smores for the first time.   Edie turned 1 on June 4th and just a few weeks before took her first ambulance rider to the ER due to an infection - ugh!  She's fine now...thankfully. We figure it's our first of many trips to the ER with two very busy little girls.  (On a side note, Cora thought riding in the ambulance was really fun!) I came down with a ridiculous case of Poison Oak that was awful for about three weeks and continues to haunt me.  It seems I'm quite allergic!  Thankfully, no one else got it.  Dave drove himself to the ER in the middle of the night for an emergency appendicectomy that ended up being (and still is) more complicated than normal because of the scar tissue left in his stomach from the car accident.  That was a few weeks ago and his...
