Wow, mama is teary-eyed over here thinking how quickly this past year has gone! Our little Madelyn James is one!

So much has changed in a year: Madelyn has gone from smiling and coo’ing to talking in what feels like complete sentences (incoherent of course but couldn’t be cuter). From not even rolling over to practically walking (with the help of this cutie little grocery cart!)

But one thing hasn’t changed: she’s our little ray of sunshine and brings new joy to each and every day!

We are so grateful for my friend Kaitie Bryant coming to our house this past week to capture our sweet *big* girl! These pictures perfectly capture Miss Madelyn! Her happy, silly, playful, and busy personality!  As well as her perfect porcelain skin, rosy cheeks, and of course her one little snaggletooth!

This year has been so very sweet. I’m so grateful God chose us to be Madelyn’s parents!
