Merry Christmas!

 

I LOVE THIS FACE! She is so amazing and we love her so much. Life got 10x harder when she came along, but it also got 20x more funny, exciting, and joyful. I am amazed at the Lord's hand in our lives. We are SO THANKFUL for our Savior Jesus Christ for all he has given us so that we could live, and live together forever.

 

We hope you all have a beautiful christmas season.
Merry Christmas from the Davenports

National Adoption Month

Just wanted to recognize national adoption month once again because it's changed our lives! We're so grateful for all the birth mothers and adoptive families and caseworkers out there. We're so thankful for this little blessing:

We're also excited to say that we are putting our paperwork in for another little miracle, so keep us in mind when you think about adoption!

ONE

We can hardly believe our baby is 1! She is SO MUCH FUN!!! She is starting to be little miss independent. She is the biggest blessing we've ever been given. We got to spend her actual birthday in Las Vegas with my brother's family and then had another birthday party with all of our family here when we got back. Lucky one year old got 2 cakes! Speaking of cakes; I am not a cake decorator. Her care bear cake was actually scary and it was an adventure to get one made! I thought Hailey might start crying when she saw the face on the care bear, but she just stared at it in a stupor of thought. We had such a great time celebrating her first year.

Backyard Water Fun

Who knew a garden hose could provide so much entertainment for us? Don't mind the loud mama laughs, sometimes I forget I have the camera right in front of me. Hailey seriously played with the hose for about 30 minutes and was pretty cold and soaked when I finally turned it off! I can't believe summer is almost over. :(

Official: Part 2

Here's some of my favorite pictures from the temple. Isn't Hailey gorgeous? She was so smiley while we took pictures and loved eating ice out of the cooler. Thanks everyone who helped us have such a great day and everyone for sending us your love!
