My Baby Girl is ONE!?!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GWENYTH EMERY




It's hard for me to believe you are already one. Just yesterday you looked like this.


And were this tiny...


Where did the time go? Honestly??? I still remember going in on Saturday night (the 5th) around 10:30, knowing our lives would never be the same and Hadley was about to get a best friend. Little did I know was what WE as parents were in for with # 2. Gweny came out early and never stopped surprising us throughout her first year.
She's dead on with her milestones, cruising about just like a champion already. She will walk with a toy, walker style, but not on her own. She still doesn't sleep through the night, poor MOMMY!!!!!!!! Waking between midnight and 2 AM every night like clockwork. Worse lately, not going back down for over an hour. Doctor tells me it's not tooth pain it's a behavior, which we all know it is. She is more spoiled than her sister ever was. I don't like her crying tons at night so Hadley doesn't wake up which she has mastered getting what she wants that way- Gweny is one smart turkey!! She cries until I give up and bring her into our bed where she passes out instantly! So what do I do?? Give her a pillow and a pillow top mattress cover thinking she likes our beds comfort- WRONG. She just likes to be spoiled and close to her mommy and daddy. She has slept in our bed, geesh probably 50 times whereas Hadley has all of 3 haha.
Gweny is so sassy, better said- she is me. She will not be told no, will not have something taken away and will not be stopped from her task and if you do any of those things she will let you have it. She will not be put to bed, rather she will fall asleep on her own. She is so full of happiness, adoring her older sister. Following her around and laughing at anything she does. Gweny is part 2 in our adventure that will always keep us on our toes...
