i have so many pictures on my computer that no one has ever seen! the last pictures i posted on facebook (before mattie's birthday party) are from when our daughter was 9 months old! i figured it was time to bring you up to date. so the next few posts will be flashbacks - our favorite pics of mattie from 10 months till now. mattie just turned 16 months on friday! time is flying by, but we're enjoying every minute of it!
this first set of pictures is mattie at 10 and 11 months. they are chronological from bottom to top. enjoy!
look at those cute little cheeks! i couldn't resist!
