My Golden Girl - Neko turns 1!

I knew the day Neko was born that we'd be celebrating her first birthday with a gold theme!  Turning one on the first, there were really no other options!  I had a serious internal debate on where we were going to celebrate, we'd yet to take Neko on a road trip due to her seriously hating the car, but I also really wanted to be in Boise!  In the end my own selfish desires won out and we packed up and headed to Boise.  The poor girl spent her 1st Birthday loaded into the car for 6+ hours, but I'm pleased to say she did great!  The next day was her party!  She hated the cake and getting it all over her.  She was impartial to present opening, which was good, because Dylan insisted on opening all her gifts.  But, she loved running around with her cousins, being the center of attention, being sung to, and the sucker she scored out of the treat bags!  It was a Happy Happy Birthday for sure!  We sure love our little one year old golden girl!

Neko - 12 Months!

Oh my little Neko girl!  Twelve months!  I honestly cannot believe how quickly this year has gone, but what a wonderful year it has been!  I love every little thing about you and am so lucky to get to spend my days by your side.  You truly make our family complete and make my mama heart full.  I feel like every stage you enter immediately becomes my favorite.  If I could put it in a bottle I would! I miss my sleepy newborn baby so much, but am crazy about my giggling, playful, sweet little girl.  I always dreamed of having a little girl, but have to admit, you are better than I had even imagined. Thank you for being mine, and thank you for the sweetness you bring to our home.
  We love you so much!
