Re: HDBD....
Apparently there was a mustache party at daycare last week
Poor M - this was the start of her double ear infection and you can tell she is sick if you look at her eyes.
QOTW - thats easy. Molly's first birthday. It's a great time of year because I know it coincides with the start of nicer weather. This first year has been way harder than I thought - I can't wait to celebrate both my little girl AND surviving it

This was just such a sweet and calm picture, after waking up from a nap for only sleeping 1 hour, I snuggled with her and she fell asleep for another hour tucked into my arms. It was so nice.

Your bump looks great! You actually look pregnant. I'm sorta in the awkward, no I didn't gain a lot of weight....I'm pregnant stage.
Even though it doesn't look like it, I feel so much bigger than I was with DS. I'm a little worried about how big I'll get by my cousins wedding at the end of feb. I'm a bridesmaid and already bought my dress.. Eeeep.
Here is L having macaroni the other night. Clearly he enjoyed it!
QOTW: I am looking forward to L's first birthday in May, being that much closer to this horrendous school year being over, and skirts and dresses.
IVF #1 in August 2012: BFP!
L was born on May 5, 2013, 8lb. 6oz.
