<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">I've been reading</span><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> </span><i>Bringing up Bebe </i>during nursing sessions with my newborn latel.<span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> It's a good read and a really interesting look at the differences between French and American parents. I was most intrigued with how French parents apparently begin baking with their children at a young age. Included in the book is a little recipe for <i>gâteau au yaourt</i> or yogurt cake the recipe uses a 6oz container of yogurt to measure most of the ingredients making it easier for little ones to scoop and pour into the bowl. I thought I'd give it a try with my 21 month old. Baking with a toddler is certainly not for the faint of heart but like with most things concerning my little lady it teaches me some patience. I'm hopeful it will teach her some as well. It was a fun experience for the two of us and I'm excited to watch as her baking skills improve like maybe pouring all the ingredients inside the mixing bowl. :)</span></div>

<i>For Nova's first birthday, we wanted to do something special just for her. We found an amazing recipe for fun-fetti pancakes with whipped cream flavored icing, and made Nova a special little crown for her big day. Grandma Raquel had also made Nova a lovely little one-sie she wore. She woke up and we went right to celebrating in style.</i></div>

I cannot believe that our daughter is going to be 1yr old in a couple of weeks! Nothing could have prepared us for how quickly this is all going by. As cliche as it sounds, it feels like just yesterday we were first welcoming her into this world. The moment I caught her as Rachel delivered her in our home, I knew I was in love. The nights I spent rocking her to sleep as her big glassy eyes starred right into my soul as she would touch my face and hum herself to sleep were some of the best memories that I can recall. </div>

Now, she's at such an amazing level of interaction with us. She's no longer a little baby, and really is becoming a kid. She communicates and learns and grows so much more each day, it's shocking.</div>

<br />
Well, we had the joy of welcoming our beautiful, 9lbs 12oz daughter into the world on September 21st, in our very own home! It was the most impacting and emotional experience of our lives, and we cherish every moment of it. <br />
<br />

She decided to take her sweet time, and came right before the 42week mark. We had always planned to put together a birth announcement video after she was born, but after realizing the events and moments we had captured since her due date, we new a little birth story is the only thing that could do justice to the anticipation and excitement we felt along the way- just waiting to meet our daughter.<br />
<br />
Our good friend Brooke also captured the whole birth process, as well as the bonding time after birth. We can't thank her enough for the amazing images she was able to create and capture for our family. <br />

We also want to thank our <b>AMAZING</b> <a href="http://www.homebirthexperience.com/">midwife Kellie Moeller</a> for helping us to have the most incredible birth experience we could possibly imagine. She's going to be a long-time part of this family as it grows.<br />
<br />
The rest of the love (and there's a lot of it) goes to our family that supported us along the way. We couldn't have done it without them. We love our families so much, and this experience has done nothing but bring us all even closer together. <br />
