An Anniversary...
So 4 years ago tonight I was sitting at the movie theater watching Talladega Nights with Kevin, Laura and Donny. I thought it was strange how bad my back hurt. I kept getting up and walking around. I never really got to see the movie even though it was pretty funny. The next morning at 5am I was laying in bed and my water broke. As I got up and got my things together Kevin goes into the kitchen and eats a bowl of cereal! I am having contractions more and more and he is downing cereal. I am sure that the pain of what was happening to me made me a little frustrated with him but I doubt it. The dude was eating while I felt like I was being ripped in two. Anyway, we get to the hospital and at 1:39pm ...
I became a Mama.
If I live to be 100 I will never forget the feelings and emotions that ran through me that day. I was elated, happy, tired, excited, thrilled, scared, EVERYTHING. Even when she was just seconds old, I felt as if she had been with us forever.
So you see, it isn't just Caroline's birthday.
It is the anniversary of the day my life changed.

Love seeing all those pics of her! I can't believe she is such a big girl.
Happy Birthday Caroline!
My mom talks about how my dad always showered before they went to the hospital...maybe with all of your kids, Kevin will eat a bowl of cereal?
What a nice post for a sweet girl and becoming a Mom does change your life forever!
Oh, she is the cutest!!
I will always remember my feelings when I became a mommy for the 1st time too!! It was so magical. I loved having a girl first too because it just seemed like we were meant for each other the second she was born and we've been close ever since.
What sweet pictures and what a sweet little girl!!
When my mother went into labor with one of us my dad had to finish mowing the lawn and then had to take a shower. I think it was number 5 so he was pretty relaxed. My poor mom though!
