Worth the wait.
Looking so grown up!
Have a wonderful birthday Juno! Thank you for bringing so much joy and laughter to the world already!
Baby Fish Mouth
Worth the wait.
Looking so grown up!
Mommy and Daddy pose with the cake. Thanks for having such an awesome baby!
We deferred to Juno's discriminating taste when choosing wine to accompany our flank steak, salad and potatoes.
"Who loves cake? We do!"
Proud Daddy with his girl.
Kicking back in the awesome chair Uncle Greg got her, with the Piggy Auntie Francine and Uncle Dave sent from Chico.
Papa loves on his favorite granddaughter.
Cousin Peter is an excellent helper with Baby Juju. He was wonderful with her at the park and makes sure she is entertained at all times!
Every little girl needs a tutu!
Future ballerina like Mommy?
There's a Shnoo in that belly!
No one knew for sure if we would be falling in love with a little girl or a little boy, as Mommy and Daddy wanted to wait for a happy surprise when Baby Fleetfoot made his or her debut in the world. Auntie Christen so wanted a little girl: someone she could take to Sephora AND baseball games. A wee girl who would enjoy tea sandwiches AND getting dirty. I hoped and prayed for a healthy baby, whatever the gender, but somehow knew there would be a whole lotta pink and tutus come May.
And the sweet baby girl was born exactly one month later.
Thank you for 11 months of smiles and laughs and kisses, Juno. You have been so loved and adored and wished for before we even met you!
Loving how you can almost see a little glimpse of the little girl she is becoming. Look at that smile! What a charmer.
A lovely spring frock. Note the cute little teeth in her smile now!
In the pink and white number Auntie Christen would like in her size. Love the bows!
Back in her everyday loungewear, Juno enjoys a snack. Um, Shnoo? You have a little something on your face.
Have a safe trip, take lots of pictures and HAVE FUN!
Get ready to shop, Juno! We need to get you something suitably sassy for Auntie Calies' big day!
Yes, THIS will do just beautifully!
And this was BEFORE cocktail hour. Crazy girl!
Mommy and Auntie enjoying a drink before dinner. Juno was...I don't know? Somewhere on the floor or something. Don't call CPS, OK?
Papa Russ, Papa and Mommy bask in the glow of the Shnoo.
This family is ridiculously attractive. Here with Nana, Mommy, Cousin Peter and Aunt Sue.
Getting ready for bed...
Her expression here just kills me.
Nighty-night, Juno! It was so hard to say goodbye to my girls, but I am grateful we have been able to see each other regularly. Come back and visit soon!
Lots of family and friends gathered on the beach to see the happy couple on their special day.
The beautiful bride's Daddy walked her down the aisle...
