Happy 7th Birthday, Sweet Alyssa!


It's hard to believe that you are already 7 years old. I remember like it was yesterday giving birth to my precious little girl. She was a chunky little thing. Daddy called her Chunky Monkey... and still does.  Her birth was very uneventful... at first. Within 3 pushes out she came. Since her due date was on Thanksgiving Day to doctor elected to induce me a week early. She would have came that week anyway, she was ready.  Immediately after birth I knew something wasn't quite right when the Doctor wouldn't let Brett cut her cord. She was blue and wasn't breathing.... But after a long several minutes  with the respiratory team... she started to scream.....


She looked just like a china doll.  

We had finally completed our family.

Within weeks of birth her little personality started to shine through.


We celebrated her first birthday with her cousins, AnnaCarroll and Dylan. They are born within 4 weeks of each other.

Alyssa, you have turned into a beautiful little girl. We are so proud of you and couldn't imagine life without you. Happy 7th Birthday... chunk munk..
