HAPPY 5th BIRTHDAY, VERONICA!!
Where does all the time go? I remember when she was just a wee one. I could not put her down for anything. Not because she didn't want me to, but because I didn't want to! Surprisingly, she didn't end up being clingy. She's the total opposite, but she is definitely a "mommy's girl." I remember when the ultrasound tech told me I was having a girl, I was so overwhelmed with joy. My oldest daughter was only 6 at the time, but I didn't get to really baby her when she was born because my eldest son was still a baby, only 10 1/2 months old! So, it was like I had twins!! Then I had two more boys after her, so you can imagine how I felt having another girl! I totally expected to have another boy, and I still remember feeling excited just thinking "what if" I was having a girl! Veronica is such a girly girl, but she can still keep up with the older kids! When she was about 1 1/2 years old, I could not, not have matching bows with every outfit she had on! It was her "signature" look. I know that sounds totally corny, but any moms out there who are obsessed with bows, you know what I'm talking about! Well, I knew that that would only last a few years, and sure enough now, she likes to wear her hair down with just one clippy in it! I can go on and on about her because I just adore her to pieces, but I assume you can pick up on that already!
Our plans for tomorrow? Harvest festival at church, and I'm going to surprise her by having a couple of tables decorated in the cafe, all decked out in a Princess theme! She will be so thrilled! I am picking up a cake, and they're going to announce "Happy Birthday" to her! And yes, I will be going picture crazy! Look out for those on Saturday!

Love her big eyes in that last shot!
Yes, time sure flies ... and even with 5 kids and all the tough moments all moms go through, I'm sure you'll still miss those moments spent with them when they're still so very tiny!
I know I do :)
And to Veronica: happy birthday, you're one blessed girl whom God has placed in one God-loving family. May you grow loving and trusting Him always too.
Oh she is beautiful! I love the flower bows. I still stick bows in my daughter's hair, I guess I am just trying to make her stay little.
Happy Birthday beautiful girl!
Absolutely stunning! She is definitely a princess! Love all the hair accessories, so cute! Can't wait to see the rest of your pics...these were awesome!
Awe, Happy Birthday!
I like how you say the LAST time she wore hair bows. It's so weird that they go through that stage. My daughter just turned 5 October 12th and she was the same way.
I love looking back at her old pictures though. She looked so cute with the hairbows. *sigh* they grow up so fast!
Happy Birthday to your beautiful little girl:-)
She is so BEAUTIFUL! And I can totally relate to always matching her bows with every outfit. I was the exact same way with my oldest!
Beautiful post!
Have a great weekend!
Hey Alicia:) Those are precious pictures! Being a mom is sooo bittersweet! We want them to grow up and be healthy, but it is soooo sad. My hubby doesn't seem to understand when I get weepy eyed about it. I know that it's just life, but that doesn't mean I have to like it!
