Miss Faithlynn was One Year Old on Friday! Wow, time flies when you are having fun!

Faith has been such a blessing to our family full of
boys. We often catch ourselves wondering
what life was like without her. She is a
funny and smart girl who is always entertaining us. She absolutely adores her big brothers, and I
think the feelings are mutual!
Here a a few fun little facts about our little Faithlynn Grace:
- She is
quite the girly-girl and surprises us daily on how much she ‘knows how to be a
girl.’
- Anything that resembles a scarf
is quickly tossed around her neck and off she goes! (I kid you not!!).
- She also loves to carry anything with a handle
over her arm like a purse.
- She is very quick to give a cute little smile (or even a kiss) if she knows she’s doing something she’s not supposed to do!
- She loves all animals and will give an “ahhhhlll” if she sees a cat, dog, bird, etc. If she sees a horse, she will rock back in forth, because she thinks all horses are 'rocking horses!'
- Unfortunately, she's learned how to take her shirt off, and will do so often to see what is on the front. This is especially true if she has a kitty or birdie on the front of her shirt!
- She is usually quite the social butterfly and is very loud!
- Has recently started dancing in front of the TV when music comes on -- so cute~
She quickly mastered the art of walking at around 10 ½
months and is now in to running and climbing. She has grown so quickly; it's almost sad. She didn't stay a baby very long.
She will be such a big help and blessing when we bring Ellie
home. Although I’m anticipating some
adjustment time between the two of them, I’m sure they will complement each
other very well. I pray that Faith’s
outgoing personality will help ease Elliana into our busy life here at the
Baxter house! I imagine they each will
have plenty of things to teach one another.
Even though I wondered what in the world God was up to 19
months ago when I found out I was pregnant, I am totally in awe of how He can do immeasurably more than all we
ask or imagine (Eph 3:20). Remember –
the day our pregnancy was confirmed was the same day Elliana was born! (July 23, 2010).
No one other than our Creator could have
orchestrated that!
