HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOOGIE!!!!!

It happened...Jace went to sleep last night a baby and this morning he woke up a T-T-T-TODDLER!!! He knew it too! He's been just a bit feistier and a bit testier today. As if somehow he woke up knowing that he is officially a toddler! Of course, upon opening his sweet baby blues Mommy gave him the "One year ago today I was enduring 19 hours of labor to bring you into this world" speech. (It's my right and duty as a mother to give said speech every year on his birthday, the first year is no exception.) Hard to believe it has already been 1 year since this day...

Unfortunately, our little monkey has a doozie of a cold on his very first birthday. How unfair is that!? He's been sick for 3 days now..UGH! Since he can't really take anything to help him I have been plying him with water, mangoes (Lots of Vitamin C and Jace LOVES them!), and homemade chicken noodle soup. Trying to get him to blow his nose has been pretty comical. I show him how to blow his nose and he wipes his ear or forehead. Oh well, I'm pretty sure I was like 7 before I got it right. lol.

Unfortunately we had to cancel Jace's One Year photo session, which has me a little more than upset. So instead of having supercute 1 year pictures to share, I have my little sickie and his tissues.

I have been working on a 1 year slideshow that I planned on posting today along with a proper (mushie) reflection on the last year, but taking care of this little sickie poo and pretty much not sleeping at night has put a serious delay on that. (It literally took me ALL DAY to even get this blog posted) Stay tuned for it's debut next week...I hope!
