My Baby is 13!

 

My baby girl turned 13 in July!  Now both of my kids are teenagers!  I really don't know where the time as gone.  She has always been such a joy and a blessing to us.  Her and Caden are only 21 months apart.  Dustin and I were overwhelmed with the thought of having two kids so close together.  But, overall it has been a great thing.  It is nice having them so close in age.  She was such a cute baby but she was headstrong from the start!  She definately held her own against her brother.  She also wanted to be independent at a young age - wanting to dress herself or make her own lunch.  She is growing up to be a wonderful young lady.  I thought I would share "13" things you should know about her.

 

 

1.  She is so loving.  There isn't a day where Dustin and I don't receive a hug and a kiss from her.  It makes my heart melt.

2.  She is fiercely independent - she wants to do everything herself and on her own terms.

3.  She is a crack up!  She is always making us laugh with a joke or a silly face or voice.

4.  She is a 4.0 student! 

5.  She remembers everything!  She did a book report on Elenor Roosevelt in the 3rd grade and can still remember the facts about her!

6.  She is great with kids and is an excellent babysitter.

7.  She loves shoes! (Just like her mom)

8.  She loves to play basketball and is very competitive. (Just like her dad).

9.  Her favorite place is San Diego.

10.  She loves Dolphins.

11.  She wants to be an orthodontist when she grows up.

12.  She has a great group of friends who I love!

13.  SHE IS BEAUTIFUL - INSIDE AND OUT!
