Happy 1st Birthday Evie & Gavin!!!

Well, Francis and I can't quite believe it, but our babies are one year old! This year has gone by quickly in some aspects, slowly in others. Every day now they are doing new and different things and we try to savor each moment with them.

Here is a cool comparison: Grandma Cordes visited 2 days ago and gave Evie a bottle, and we found a picture from Oct 30 of last year with Grandma holding Evie - even wearing the same shirt! Check out the pictures below to see how much our little girl has grown!




They weren't too interested in each other last October:


Best buddies now!
