Happy Birthday GiGi!

Yesterday was GiGi's Birthday! We could never thank her for EVERYTHING she did for us when baby Hayden arrived (not to mention the 10 months of preparing for him!), but we did make sure to grab a few pictures while she was here. We all miss her already and love her SO much!! Thank goodness she lives so close. :)

Mom,

I don't think many people are lucky enough to have the kind of relationship that you and I share. I will never be able to thank you for everything that relationship means to me, but...

THANK YOU for researching endlessly while we looked for the perfect stroller for our family.

THANK YOU for buying the Mamaroo for Hayden, then signing the card from Tess, Sophie and Scout.

THANK YOU for spending a weekend putting hundreds of dot decals on the walls, one by one.

THANK YOU for figuring out why our clothes have been shrinking. :)

THANK YOU for driving in the middle of the night to meet us at the hospital.

THANK YOU for being there in the delivery room, but somehow still making it about me and Tyler.

THANK YOU for taking care of our furry baby while we were first meeting our newest one.

THANK YOU for taking care of EVERYTHING at the house, so we could take care of Hayden.

THANK YOU for spending so much time away from Dad and Sophie, we are so grateful.

THANK YOU for coming back to spend the week with me when Tyler had to go back to work.

THANK YOU, mostly, for showing me what a mother should be.

I am so excited to be sharing all of this with you. A silly little blog post doesn't even begin to do it justice, but you deserve a little taste of just how much you're appreciated!

I love you!!
