Vancy Pantsy is ONE


My little Van is now 1. Boo hoo. I, like all mothers out there, can't believe how quickly it went by.

Van was a dream baby. It all started with the delivery. So calm and enjoyable. I went home the next day because it all went so well. The days that followed were so sweet. Babies bring a gentle spirit with them when they come home from the hospital. Sure, we had our late nights and crying spells, but it goes by so quickly.

Van is quite popular. He had TWO birthdays. One in California with his two cousins, Rowan and Charlie, that were born within 8 days of him. Then we came back to Utah and he had cake and ice cream with my family. At both events, he didn't care much. He just eats his cake and smiles.


So I sadly toast to my baby's 1st birthday and get REALLY antsy to have another one.

Happy 1st Birthday to Van! When I see his pic I think he can't get any cuter. And then he goes and gets cuter!

He is so cute! My little girl's first b-day is coming up next month. I'm not going to let her turn 1. I'm not. No, she can't.
