Goodbye 20-11, Hello 20-12

A brief year in review: Overall a wonderful year. I got to watch my little baby turn into a now full-fledged toddler! Its amazing to see how much she has learned and how she has won over the hearts of so many people just by being her sweet little self. There are so many things I have learned and loved about her this year, that I cant wait to see all the new things she will begin to do in the year to come. Mainly I cant wait to see her in her soon to be big sister role. I just know the times will be busy but priceless and I am nervous but so excited to take on this new endevor. Ill treasure 2011 forever mainly because it will have been my year with my first little girl. It was a year of learning her trademarks and learning the easy and hard way to become a mother to her. I love and never want to forget jsut a few of her toddler qualities. I love that she loves to hold hand, and the way she rubs your hand each night as she falls asleep. I love the way she cuddles up against me on the couch. I love her sweet left-sided dimple. I love her hugs and the way she leans in for a kiss while making a mmmmm sound. I love her independence. I love the way she talks with her hands, its the "Italian" in her blood. I love when she is feisty. I love that she is messy, eating, coloring, playing, etc. I love how she loves hulk, she kisses him and aggrevates him. She has a genuine love for animals in general. I love how excited she gets and wiggles her little arms when she runs. There is so much to love about this sweet girl. Those just to name a few go down as my favorites with Franki in 2011. Check out her at the Teeny Weenie New Years Bash we went too! We also had a wonderful night with our good friends and it was the perfect end of one year and beginning of another! Heres to a great year overall. We feel blessed to have what we have.
