This photo was taken just a few days before our darling Bean turned a year old. Isn't her springtime splendor splendid? And her Papa dressed her, frilly socks and all!
But I am a sorry Mama. It was yesterday that Bean turned a year old and I didn't even blog about her or her birth or any of those mama-blog topics! Maybe 'cause she's a second baby and while her birth was a wonderful, remarkable event to me, I don't want to bore any of you other mamas out there with all the details. (6-hour labor, very intense, pushed 4 times, lustily crying 8#6oz baby Bean emerged--that's all y'all need to know, I think.) Or maybe because I was so busy getting the house ready for her big bash this weekend. And when I say big, I'm talking 9 older kids, including Sister, and 5 other kids in the baby range, including Bean. I think that puts the kid-to-adult ratio at about 1:1. But barring thunderstorms that would force everyone inside our small house, it should be a good outside time. In fact, I find myself kind of looking forward to that chaos. (Though I'll thank you not to quote me on that once I drag my sorry, tired ass back to this blog post-party, okay?)
Hope you're all enjoying some spring weather the likes of what NC is getting right now. Happy weekends to all of you!

Happy B-day to Bean- my little girl turned one on April 9. Made me feel sad and old- and wistful...
Happy birthday Bean! It's amazing how quickly they grow!
Oh, the sweetness. Is it just me, or does the second one seem more baby-like at 1. I remember thinking our first was so old at one but with the second, he still seems like a total infant.
So exciting to see a picture of you and your family! You all look cute!
