cossette's 1!

it so strange having your baby turn one. it feels like they've always been here & you keep thinking, it's only been one year?! but they have so much personality, have grown tons, have such a huge piece of your heart! that really happens that fast?? plus the first year is exhausting & difficult & you end up giving yourself major props for keeping this fragile little thing alive for an entire 365 days, when it felt like 500.

& when your first turns 2 you feel like, we most definitely did not have another year! & even though you've spent every second with her, it seems like you haven't gotten enough time with your baby for her to be a toddler now. the second year just flew! i think for every kid's every birthday i will get all retrospective & sentimental. poor things.

so here we are seemingly 500 days after cossette came to us & celebrating her first birthday.

we adore this sweet, unpredictable, funny, babbling, terrible eating coconut!
she is an exquisite little handful. :)
