One Year

One year ago today I was in the hospital hooked up to all kinds of monitors, wondering if I would have a premature baby. I was told I had HELLP Syndrome and the only way for my body to heal was to deliver the baby. At 5:32 PM Austin was born! This past year has brought so many challenges, emotions, and a feeling of indescribable unconditional love.

I am very excited to start new traditions, and fill Austins life with love and happiness. Im anxious to pick him up from the babysitter tonite, to give him presents and to let him eat his cake :) His birthday party isnt for another week, so he should be a pro at making a mess with his cake and with ripping open presents.

Its funny- looking at him now, I cant believe he was just 3lb 9oz when he was born.
