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.

We recently had family photos taken in the Columbia Gorge by a wonderful couple who travel around the world with their two kids taking pictures. I just love how they turned out!

Cora and the boys

Dave's friends, Scotty, Ryan and Danny, have been taking good care of us this week. We're thinking about asking them to move in long-term! Ryan is currently making us a fancy breakfast and Danny is still trying to find us the perfect Subaru Forrester to purchase.

We welcomed Cora at 5:41pm on Saturday, July 18th after 12 hours of labor. Thanks to the help of our wonderful doula, Carissa, we were able to stay at home for the first 6 hours of labor. Our nurses and midwife at Kaiser Sunnyside were wonderful and helped Lindsay get through the labor and delivery drug-free. We came home today and are already lost in the world of poopy diapers, feeding and getting sleep when we can. Oh the thrill of sleep deprivation! We'll be in touch when we get our heads above water.
